Adult Situations
December 5, 2009 – 12:04 pmWhile the world may seem to try and bring all of us down from time to time (or, perhaps utterly destroy us), I recommend one LOL one’s way out of it. “LMAO, LMAOooooh, all I want to do is LMAOoooh oh oh oohhhh.” YEAH!
Presenting: “Adult Situations” 24″x36″
LMAO is the ultimate protection

Owning it.
October 19, 2009 – 7:17 pmThis one is about as personal as I get. Maybe one day I’ll be able to go into detail without being annoyed at the sound of my own narrative. Until then, enjoy my dirtiest, roundest (!) painting yet.

An Observation
September 5, 2009 – 8:45 amFrom the disastrous results of the Iranian election to the religious moral differences that create debate in seemingly every country in the world, I have found it boils down to one thing: you just can’t tell people what to do.
Just an observation.

Everyone is Asymmetrical
July 18, 2009 – 9:52 amI tried some new things on this one.- verticality and cool tones. After having recently been “Blackberried” by my employer, I thought I’d also sneak in a little ode my new best buddy.

A Valuable Lesson
May 15, 2009 – 5:22 pmPhew! A lot has gone on since my last post. Most notably, a reminder of the profundity of life and the many sublime patterns and laws that govern it.
Rest in peace, Meomumyu.

Doing it for the lulz xD
March 28, 2009 – 2:30 pmThe biggest issue on the public’s mind these days is the economy. People are losing their homes, modern day Hoovervilles are cropping up, and it’s easy to sense the unstable energy and raw nerves lurking just under the surface of day to day life. Therefore, I decided to make a little ode to this moment in time. I just hope the jokers that got us into this mess have learned a couple things. Right now, the joke is on us all.

Cloak Me In Pleebs
March 28, 2009 – 2:16 pmThe inspiration for this one was to just see what happens when I do a painting and listen to episodes of The Best Show on WFMU. Somehow I came up with this. Enjoy!
