New Year, New Website, Big Changes

New Year, New Website

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!!

As with many people, 2015 brings with it many changes to my world both personal and professional, and as with many more people still….some resolutions. Don’t worry,  I’m not going to bore you with my ideals on losing a few *tens* of pounds or reading more (I already do quite a bit of that), or about how I’m going to organize a riot over my painfully slow…

Into the fall, and over to Australia

I’m very excited to announce my invitation to exhibit at Auguste’ Clown Gallery in Australia for this years “Halloween Show”. The list of participants is out-of-this-world and I am sure the event will be a huge success & spectacle.  Below are images of my very thematic contribution,  and just in time for the official Halloween season! Meooow.

“The Black Cat”  Original epoxy sculpture with custom…

cu·ri·os·i·ty

ˌkyo͝orēˈäsitē/

A strong desire to know or learn something.

2. A strange or unusual object or fact

You know what it did to the cat. And now I’ve brought it our for you.

“Cabinet & Curiosity” is an installation style piece inspired by the late H.P Lovecraft and his world of the twisted, tentacled, macabre. Installed inside a heavily distressed and “reborn” gothic style clock tower lives this horrid and rather enormous wriggling beast. It’s single, penetrating golden eye never loses it’s fixation, never blinks, and never ever stops shining. Atop the head of the beast are translucent pustules and tattered rudimentary wings and arm-like projections. The creature appears to be in a sort of recently disturbed repose, at first relaxing inside it’s age old and scratched to the bone cabinet home, only now beginning it’s slow creeping decent upon it’s new viewer.

you have to see this one to believe it, but unless you’re in Washington state, these pictures (or a purchase) will have to do.

“Cabinet & Curiosity” is currently on display at the Red Raven Gallery, Port Townsend WA for the “What the Moon Brings” Lovecraft show.  Available works can be purchased through the gallery  HERE.

Be careful out there….

Coasters, Coasters, and more Coasters – Oh MY!

Ahhhh, fall. Quite possibly one of the best times of year, and undoubtedly..a busy time for an artist like me. This year is no exception and as anticipated I find myself stepping off of a 5 week creative blur with several impressive new pieces to share with you, each different and unique in it’s own unusual way.

Kicking off September right, my dream creature for La Luz de Jesus Gallery’s  much…

Upcoming Event: “Tenebrous” @ Clutter Magazine’s Gallery – Beacon, NY- June 14th

Hello Folks!

Boy do I have some goodies for your eyeballs today!

Debuting June 14th @ Clutter Gallery are my brand new and shockingly lively sculptural renditions of a Cassowary Bird and a mutant leucistic Alligator (with tentacles of course!) These sculptures are very unique to my previous collections and are omens of the evolution my work is undergoing. The Cassowary bust stands a hefty 20″…

Hi everyone!

As expected I jumped from one crazy double-headed weekend into a second, then a third, and so on. ( It occurs to me I must THRIVE on this chaos because I am knocking out awesome work right and left while also shedding a few hairs around the studio tables!)

Anyways, I lagged in promoting here (though admittedly I am very active on my Facebook pages and Instagram – add me there!) but…

Big Updates: Back in the Saddle Again!

Big Updates: Back in the Saddle Again!

As I had hoped, sure enough 2014 started off with a bang! 2013 was a roller coaster with extreme highs and lows, and near the end quarter my production had slowed down to a near lurch. Thankfully, my period of deep reflection and careful planning erupted a new tier of inspiration and zest for creation that I am very much enjoying. I am back to full swing production and have never been so happy or…
