Limited edition prints coming soon...

On Friday I had 50 limited edition prints printed at the print shop. I was very impressed with how good they came out. I also wanted to make them available to a wide variety of friends & fans so they will be very buyer friendly. The print is a collaborative print based on a drawing by myself & the added graphic design work of my friend Mike Caldarera. Each print comes signed and numbered and will be available through the online store.

** They will be released this Wednesday: 2.1.12. **
* Be sure to act fast. They will only be available for ONE WEEK ONLY. *

"Growing Hope" mural...

"Growing Hope" Mural from Light Gives Heat on Vimeo.

During my last trip out to Colorado I headed over to Grand Junction, CO to work once again with Light Gives Heat. While there I painted a large scale mural in their headquarters. The idea was to use the idea of The Giving Tree, a selfless giver used to help others in need. Yamo Films was kind enough to time-lapse the entire 2 day process. Take a moment to view the mural entitled "Growing Hope".

Live mural recap...

If you missed out on last weekend' live painting event for the grand opening of Christian Surfers National headquarters...
Painted for 3 hours during the event. Met and saw a lot of new faces. The 5x4ft canvas will be completed in 2 weeks. Prints of this piece will be available in the future as well. Here are a few quick pics from event. Enjoy...

Live mural painting this weekend...

I will be painting a 5x4ft canvas at the Christian Surfers International Headquarters. The design I have have planned is pretty wild. Excited to share it with you guys. My photographer friend AJ Neste will be showing several prints along side of me as well. Food , music, & fun. If you are around be sure to stop by and say hello!

6 years ago today...

I realized today I had my first solo show 6 years ago.
I've shown work in galleries but never had a real solo show until January 11, 2006. It was a fun and long process. My work has changed a lot since then. But looking back is always fun. I found some old pictures from that night. Enjoy...
