It is hung in a special room at the south London gallery with a notice on the door warning visitors they may find the image “challenging”. Prince himself described…
Expecting Watercolor and Pencil on Paper I painted this a couple of months ago, just after I saw those two little lines for the first time. I’ve been waiting, like most people these days, until I hit the second and less risky trimester to tell people online. This is the last, good thing I have…
So I’ve been thinking that my biography is a bit boring, a bit old and a lot dated – in short, I am over it. so I’ve been working today on writing up a new formal biography and a less formal “about” for my websites and stuff. I’d love your input, I’m really terrible at…

Extend Oils on Canvas 5×7 in $100 This piece is one of two that I sketched up late at night, I’ve been sitting on the 3d versions for a while now and looked at them the other day and went.. yeah! lets do it! I am really happy with the level of detail in this…
Release Oils on Canvas 12×12 in $300 This Painting was a surprise to me, I don’t really remember painting it. I remember it as if it was a dream- small flashes of the whole. sometimes I get in “the zone,” a lizard brain state where it feels like I have very little to do with…
