Four new pieces for an upcoming show at Nucleus Portland. These will be available in June for the annual SALUT! group show.

For those wondering, I used Nitram’s Liquid Charcoal which is essentially an erasable hybrid between charcoal and watercolor.

One of my favorite graphic novels and definitely worth another read right now.
I wouldn't be so crass as to say "Do your part for the resistance and read our book," but Dave Marsh described it as "patriotic in all the ways that matter, to all the things that one might justifiably be patriotic to"—and it's been reissued by Abrams Books: store.abramsbooks.com/products/unc...

Showing a little love to these small painting studies I did of Poppy a few years back.

Sometimes the smallest pieces are the most special.

Each piece is 5”x7” (12.7 x 17.78 cm) watercolor and gouache on paper.

Living through Hurricane Helene, I’m feeling a certain way about watching another city I love be decimated.

If any of my LA folks need anything - please reach out.
Hard to process the devastation I’ve witnessed in the last two days. Still in a state of shock for those who have lost so much in such a short period of time. #NoWords 💔

This is my piece for the annual Spoke Art Moleskine Project exhibition opening Saturday, January 11th in San Francisco!

I’ve kept my reintroduction to oils this past year mostly under wraps but be on the look out for more in 2025!

Absolutely incredible artist! Such stunning works, always. And a lovely person, too. We discovered each other on Twitter an eon ago, & had the pleasure of meeting in person when I visited New York. Shared the local secrets with me. Will never forget. #art #artist to follow

This is a new painting currently on view at H Gallery in Paris, France. It is part of my solo show, A Dialogue with Sparrows: Phantoms and Ruminations from the American South. This show runs through November 23rd.
