Last night was surreal. Huge thanks to everyone who came through, showed love, and took a piece home. The support means everything. Just two paintings left and yes, we’ve got a print dropping soon with @archenemyarts . Stay tuned for details. 🤓

Our beautiful SPECTRUM 5 exhibition now officially on view in our side room! Come visit it this week Wednesday through Friday from 10am - 4pm, and 11am - 5pm on the weekends. Artists are tagged.

If you can’t make the show in person, peep it online via the link in our profile.

The last couple of days in the studio have felt incredible. About 10–12 hours into this new piece and I can finally feel years of ideas starting to come together.

Working at a larger scale again has been both challenging and refreshing pushing softer transitions, less hyper-detail, and playing more with perspective and depth without losing the realism that anchors the work. It feels different. More natural.

This is a painting I’ve been trying to figure out how to make for a long time, so seeing it finally take shape has been a really rewarding experience. A few more solid studio days before the final phase begins. Excited!

Working on a new large piece for my upcoming solo show later this year.

This piece feels like a bridge between ideas I carried back in 2018 and the perspective I have now. Some concepts stay dormant for years before they finally reveal the right form.

Excited to bring this one fully to life.

Stoked to be part of such a great show!!!

COMMON WATERS, presented by @archenemyarts and @pangeaseed, opens First Friday, June 5th in Philadelphia.
The exhibition features 60 artists from around the world and reflects on our shared relationship with the ocean, its ecosystems, and the urgent need for protection. A portion of sales will support ocean conservation and advocacy through PangeaSeed.

A new piece in progress for Common Waters with @archenemyarts and @pangeaseed

I’ve been thinking about what it means to dissolve into something larger than yourself where emotion, memory, and the body begin to blur into the ocean. Not escape, but integration.

A few snippets from a new portrait in progress a chunky, fluffy neighborhood cat who shows up to eat and hang out in front of our house.

He’s a fighter, but carries it quietly. There’s something stoic about him.

This piece will be heading to @thinkspace_art for the “Our Fantabulous Furry Feline Friends” show. 🐈‍⬛

Last Judgment
12” x 12”
Oil on canvas
2026

This piece comes from my own psychedelic experiences, especially in my youth.

There’s a moment brief but undeniable where the body, this mechanical and animalistic thing we inhabit, comes into contact with something beyond comprehension. Something we often call “spiritual,” not because we understand it, but because we don’t.

When those two states meet, there’s an awareness that breaks through.
A realization that reality isn’t fixed that there is more to it than what we can hold onto.

That moment stayed with me.
It pushed me into a lifelong search through philosophy, art, and science fiction trying to understand it, or maybe just to reconnect with it.

The white space here is intentional. It removes context, leaving the figure suspended in that exact moment of confrontation nowhere to hide, nothing to ground it.

I was also inspired by William Blake’s Last Judgment.
Fragments of that composition are etched into the subject’s skin unfinished, almost frantic like something done in a manic attempt to hold onto revelation before it disappears.

For @gallery.ergo Psychedelicatessen show.

Here are a few moments from the opening reception.

Grateful to @harmanprojects and @thinkspace_art for including me in this show alongside a lineup of artists I genuinely admire some of whom I’ve looked up to for years.

It means a lot to continue growing and working at this level, surrounded by people pushing things forward.

No matter how uncertain or heavy the world feels, our work will always be there to reflect, to question, and to guide the human spirit toward light.

Switching back to portrait after working in landscape.

This piece is rooted in William Blake’s The Last Judgment and the psychological intensity of the psychedelic experience that moment where perception fractures and something deeper begins to surface.

Heading to @gallery.ergo for their Psychedelicatessen show this May.

More to come.

Went back into the studio to rework this piece from a few months ago.

Something about it felt unfinished not in detail, but in how the figure lived inside the world. I wanted her to feel less placed and more part of it.

Subtle shifts in color, letting the environment bleed into the skin, pushing that sense of atmosphere a bit further.

I enjoy it a lot more now.

I think I’m starting to understand that the work is never really done just revisited with better eyes. Always learning, always moving forward.
