The Dark Places
As October begins and Halloween approaches, thoughts turn to everything dark and creepy. I always forget about this painting from 2011 that was to start a series of interiors based on famous locales from horror films. This is the entryway from the main house in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Unfortunately this was the only one … Read More
Focus
Along with streamlining this website I’m feeling a necessary consolidation of my artistic practice. How can I shift my process to produce a result that has a more focused purpose? Something beyond following this crazy narrative, leaving behind a trail of odd sized canvases soaked with effort and wonder. To have self contained objects of … Read More

Creep Photos
Some new photography has been added to the photography section, like this one from my series of supernatural creeps taken in the Alabama Hills in California’s Eastern Sierras.
Sneak Peak
Here’s a detail of a piece just completed and varnished. It’s so satisfying to get back to larger paintings. The background is one I’ve painted before but much smaller. One of my favorite corners in the Tenderloin. Acrylic on canvas.
New Work for Summer 2016
‘La Casa Cosmica’ was painted for the 6 Year Anniversary show Simply Frida at Wonderland in San Francisco. All works we’re naturally tributes to Frida Kahlo and I wanted combine the look of atomic era “propaganda” art with a space background and morphing Frida’s iconic hair flowers into a bloom of nebulas. Opens July 16th … Read More
