It’s official! The web preview for Shhh… is up and running. I still have a few pieces to finish up, but please have a gander here! Save the date for the show, it’s February 3, 8-11pm at La Luz de Jesus. I would love to meet all of you! I’m feeling really good about these pieces and am terribly excited to have everything done.
A few more finished pieces for my February show. Follow me on twitter for more in progress pictures. Enjoy!
A few morsels of eye candy for you to start the new year with. In progress paintings for my show in February, some photo references that I’m using for the unpainted paintings in the last picture. They’ll be the smallest pieces in the show, measuring 3.5″ x 5.5″. Enjoy!
Just picked up my postcards from La Luz today. Also just got back this weekend from visiting with my parents and fired up to crank out some work. Did a few pieces for the Post-it Show happening right now at Giant Robot. Missed the reception though since I was out of town. A few pieces from that below as well as a fantastic aerial view of my luxurious painting nook and the postcards for my upcoming show in February. That’s the ridiculously stunning Miss Mia Matsumiya from the band Kayo Dot I have lounging on my laptop in the studio shot ;D. I had my amazingly talented BFF Ping Zhu handwrite the information on the back of the show card since she can’t make it to the show because she lives an ocean away ;[. Cheers.
Finished up a piece last week and starting a new one right now! The opening reception for the 2nd half of the La Luz de Jesus 25th Anniversary show is this Friday and Saturday, hope to see you all there! :]
So I’ve been hibernating and incubating some ideas while working on a few new pieces for an upcoming show. I went to the Alternative Press Expo sometime between this post and the previous and picked up a few fancy things. A mini painting by Mark Todd and prints by Esther Pearl Watson and Evah Fan. Also hung out with the cool kids of Never Press (they make some pretty bitchin’ zines).
I have a piece that will be up for La Luz de Jesus’ 25th Anniversary Show between November 4th through 27th. Join me for the opening reception on the 4th and 5th from 8-11 PM. The piece is also in their big fancy 25th Anniversary book with all sorts of important people (amazed that I weaseled my way into that one.)
Heads up for some Christmas shopping as well; I will once again be in Giant Robot’s Post-It Show happening in a month or two. And Hunters Hunt is up and running, a little late on the announcement, but my scarf is available for sale here along with work from some amazing fellow artists! 
Just finished making and printing a very limited edition scarf. These are handmade scarves silkscreened on 100% organic cotton voile with a hand-rolled hem. The artwork features grey and mint colored hunters on horseback with their dogs running along the edge of the scarf. They will be for sale on Hunters Hunt once September rolls around. Check out the process below!
I recently went to Shag’s show called Hand Pulled at the Grand Central Arts Center in Santa Ana which consisted of all the prints he has made to date. His attention is detail and amazing craftsmanship is more than apparent in the all the meticulously aligned silkscreen prints. I also went to Junko Mizno’s opening reception for her Cinderella book at Nucleus in Alhambra. All the adorable original inked pages were available for viewing. I love the patterns she uses in her work as well as a psychedelic 70′s vibe.
Lastly! I’ve been working on a making some limited edition scarves for a collaborative online store some friends are putting together called Hunters Hunt, which will be launching this September. The scarves all have a delicate hand rolled hem and will have a super top secret print that will soon be revealed!

Thank You Hi-Fructose
I recently had the privilege of having Daniel Rolnik of Hi-Fructose come to my studio for a visit. We had a lovely time discussing the unspoken etiquette of showing in galleries to wonderfully random topics that border on completely inappropriate. The write up of that meeting has just been posted on their blog, check it out here! Also an in progress piece that I’m finishing up. Enjoy!
