New storage unit, so cleaning some files. That one time I was a poster boy for the first San Francisco queer youth phone chat line, that I helped found. I think it was 1991?

I was interviewed by National Geographic about the Mexican folk origins, and deep spiritual significance of these quirky clay figurines. “Your chia pet’s roots are deeper than you think”. Learn about ‘The Secret History of Your Chia Pet’ in the April 2026 issue.
It’s like a teddy bear, but with a gas mask. And you can drink from its head. That’s all. #queerceramics
Friends in the Seattle area, hope you can make it to SLAM! Tuesday March 24, at Vermillion Gallery. I will be showcasing my kinky ceramics there, in the company of great artists. Hope you can make it.
Learned a lot about canes last night, at Seattle’s Gentleman’s Impact Group! From “Nursery” to “Dragon” canes, these beauties go from sensation to real punishment. Have you tried them? Would you?!
Pass the tequila and the ammo! New work at the studio to bring in the new year. Margaritas after.
‘Tis the season for Krampus! These ceramic mini ring dishes are quite festive. Happy Krampusnacht.
1/3 Ageism in our community is a sad reality. On this day I want to speak to people under 27. Survivors are your allies, when the world turns dark. The US Government no longer observes World AIDS Day, but you can honor an elder by sharing a meal, resistance strategies, stories or by saying thanks.
Join me at the Macabre Makers Market on Sunday, December 6 at Obec Brewing, in Ballard, from 2-7 PM. Will you join our frightfully festive fun? Entry is free! 21+ Obec is located at: 1144 NW 52nd St, in Ballard.

You better watch out, you better not pout! Krampus is coming to town 👹
