RIP. We lost an original. I heard rumblings of TMNK's passing a couple days ago but remained quiet because I was hoping the Internet chatter were just rumors. Thru all your crazy antics, I always had respect for you. Thx for welcoming me and Rise Up Gallery to Wynwood back in 2012. Many fond memories of you popping into the studio/gallery late at night, art workshops at Jackson Hospital, and just hanging in the deserted Wynwood streets. Rest easy my friend.

"Nobody," an artist and staple of the Wynwood community, died this weekend. This is what he meant to the neighborhood.
