Born and raised in a small village called Long Beach, Loc sold peanut butter and spam sandwiches out of a cart to help out with his family of 9 siblings.  The phrase Loc used most growing up was, “get your hand out of my pocket!”  Loc left his village and embarked on his long journey into manhood and was schooled in the ways of the western world, mostly in Santa Barbara, CA.  His journey took him into 3 other continents, which has impacted greatly his views on Life, Humanity, and the Arts.  Instead of making sandwiches, Loc now makes his bread by painting.
