2500 Block
Finished up a really cool new piece, "2500 Block". I knew as soon as I found the frame in a thrift store it would be epic! As the piece evolved, it was fun + exciting to play different parts in what makes a wall; tagging it with an oil pen as a vandal, whitewashing it as a graffiti cleanup crew, decrepit advertisements for things not sold in 25 years still visible, wheatpasting up DIY posters, angry shopkeepers trying to peel them down, wind + rain + time washing the whole little opera away.. building the yeti up was a challenge, with so much spackle + gel and miniature lines that get completely buried, glossed over, drawn again.. there is so much in the piece that can't be seen anymore, but those hidden parts still exude their energy and intent, each building off another. A wall of exposed secrets.
mixed media in vintage frame, 19"x26".

Philosophy
"Now it's time for some philosophy; that means lying down on the floor, thinking, and not talking."

-"Well, I think you'd have to properly define 'unfulfilling life' before you can make such a statement."

Dying Alone
A lovely ink cover illustration for "McFirth's Comprehensive Guide to Dying Alone" (Mssrs. Chop & Logik, Fleet Street, E.C. 1891), a handy & timely tome that speaks to us all as mortals. The expression is one mirrored on many when contemplating the inevitability of their demise; but as McFirth lays out his research & describes the structures of thought & consciousness, we see that dying alone doesn't mean dying lonely. With masterfully rendered Four Quadrant maps, he reveals death to be a sublimation & the return of our atoms & spirit to the Cosmos, and not something to fear at all.
He was subsequently executed for Hearsay & Aggravated Witchcraft, but his work lives on in this exquisitely-maintained volume.
