Artist. Mostly, painting, short movies, sculpture, poetry, you name it. What will I post next? I'm happy to be on bsky. Formerly NM now Georgia.
Drinking Painkillers out of a King Kong glass like I haven't a care in the world.
The wall may be ruined. But at least there was an enthusiastic panter behind it.
POV: you have to collect “samples” for your senior dog’s health screening, but now he looks at you like you’ve lost your damn mind.
As memories are recorded in the dark corners of the mind, they are immediately imperfect. You can’t blame memory for this. Leave it alone, it’s doing its best. My current art show explores themes of memory, nostalgia, and consumerism.
Not much funny or clever to say about this. It’s the MTV logo with a Dire Straits song. Did I grow up in the 80s, or what?
My solo show is up through the month of July. Each work is a reflection of a moment or experience of my own life. Incorporating the personal with pop culture references.
I like to pursue a sense of joy and wonder in life and art, even if it means dressing in a tutu and boots.
My new show is installed and the opening is tomorrow. I'm excited and I cant wait to share my work with my community!
The heat today is almost unbearable, good thing it makes for delicious tomatoes!
New painting. The skies here are super blue, and the palms strike me as the happiest of trees. Great inspiration for art everywhere I look.
I took a brief moment away from preparing an upcoming show to absorb some negative ions by the sea.
I found the craziest looking bunch of barnacles at the beach today.
Out with the old and in with the new! Starting the day by painting over some lousy old work. I'm glad that it's gone and I'm looking forward to the painting that will replace it! Like a shark. Always moving forward!
Sometimes I turn a corner and while looking at nothing in particular I'm overwhelmed by how beautiful this place is.
Pretty sure he was posing for me. Yes bird, you’re very impressive.
Subtracting the color from some wild spaces can make them feel completely different.
