    Hell yeah, Kansas City.

    SCRIBE’s the top of the list in the KC area. His work was definitely an influence on me in the days I spent vandalizing Lawrence Kansas. Beautiful stuff.

    I also saw the man live in Montreal!

    (hopefully this picture doesn’t show more of him than he wants)

    Scribe is a wonderful person to work with, I get to watch his talent up close. I also get to hear the comments made about his work from the families and children that come through our hospital and it makes me proud for him to hear the wonderful comments made about his work.

    Can I get a …..

    Scribe is the man, a true professional. Jason and Don just did simultaneous shows at Plastic Chapel, and Andenken in Denver. Both shows where not only epic, but original , unique, and inspirational. Both guys came in and just killed it, with time to spare, and did a few walls as well. Not quite sure just how they do it, but as I said great guys and great attitude, to match their skills. If you get a chance … check out Andenken, or Joy Engine, both have great flicks of the Andenken show. PC should have up drawings from the “dogfight” show available for purchase shortly, we are relaunching our site in a few weeks. Way to go
    Scribe, your the man.
    Respect !

    It is such a pleasure to work with Scribe at Children’s Mercy Hospital. He has helped my department on many special projects & always brings in a wonderful creativity and quality to everything. I never worry about our joint projects because with him in charge I know things will get done with great care. I was fortunate enough to watch his book go from inital drawings to a published book. It was great fun. Thanks Scribe for letting me into a small portion of your world.

    Hey Dan, Thanks for the kind words, but that link to the photo is not a photo of me or my work?
    I have not had the chance to go to Montreal but I will be doing a show there with Jason Brunson at the OOg Gallery this coming October.
    Thanks again.

    Been following his work for mad years. It’ll be a pleasure to see his canvas work in person. Thank god for pay day!

    Much deserved highlight on one of the most original, technically skilled graff/fine artist in the country.

    I am very fortunate to be able to see Scribe’s work every day at Children’s Mercy South Hospital. Each day I walk by the donor wall mural I see something new I hadn’t seen earlier..It makes me smile to see a child gaze up at the animals, birds and bugs in wonder and amazement. Thank you Scribe for sharing your creativeness with us.

    Really? Dang, I thought the style looked some what off but I asked a mate of mine from KC and he said it was definitely your stuff.

    I thought it was too much of a coincidence, you being in freaking Canada and shit.

    Ah well, my previous statement still stands.

    Scribe needed no mentoring, just a lil’ direction and advice. He has more raw talent in the hairs on his back than I have in my whole body! Forever an inspiration, my “Devout Friendship” with you is a blessing never to be taken for granted…thanks for all the great memories and killer backgrounds you painted, which made us all look good! You’ll always be “At The Top”!!! Holla!

    The beauty of Scribe’s work is only an extension of the beauty that lies within him. His humility and acceptance are rare qualities in the graffiti community, not to mention the world at large. His friendship to our family has stabilized our journey through this life. COngrats, Donnie!

    King Scribe…always “Authorized To Terrorize” the walls of the world…thanks for the inspiration over the years.

    I’m happy to see that we all stayed friends through the ups and downs (NUTS Crew..what!) and have kept our sense of humor through the early years of building the “Knowledge City” graffiti scene…

    I hope my bombing didn’t cause too much grief….

    Stay Up…

    “like scribe,if I could be like scribe”
    In a medium were being prolific usually has a funny way of getting us into trouble and street cred and underground infamy is the ceiling of our success, “Scribe” has shown us that there is more then getting up,There is getting out.Scribes style of ultra clean pieces with sick color work and universally translatable subject matter is shining a positive light on graffiti and hip hop culture. BIGUPS Scribe, thanks for Giving site to the blind eyes who see Hip Hop culture as a negative. “DEEARE1″ dayone
