I had the pleasure of curating a show for UrbanLightStudios at the Greenwood Collective July 9th. For the show I was able to amass an extremely talented group of Seattle’s best street artists who are simply ‘killing it’ in the Pacific NW. Myself along with 14 other local artists are bringing the surreal this coming weekend.

Like a requiem of forgotten worlds, characters, and legends comes a collection of Seattle’s local street artists who bend the lightwaves of fixed reality. A mash up of styles and media that coalesce abrasive textures, demented beings, and unadulterated underground scenarios comes full throttled in a tricked out menage . This assortment of artists include some of the NW Pacific’s most prolific muralists, illustrators, cartoonists, tattooists, inkers, painters, and culture creatives who truly push through the looking glass and bring back pieces of layered dreams.

Where there is tentacles, beaks, bikers, and skulls there is an alien wonder and strange velvety familiarity. Regurgitating the links to childhood memories and make believe is merely the catalyst for propagating and producing worlds of mystery, urban mutations, and righteous nougat of the soul. Reaching into the inner depths of contemporary visual science while armed with paint cans, brushes, and warped genius this whimsical yet hard edged cartel has amassed the chimera of sub-pop underground culture. If you follow the white rabbit he will lead you right into the peculiar embrace of this eclectic exhibit.

I had an amazing birthday with all my peeps last week. For all who don’t know, I am the definitive Pisces who was born right on the cusp of Aquarius. These two astrological signs traits seemingly intertwine to form my inner fiber, creative make-up, eclectic visions, wandering sense of freedom, meticulous account for detail, attraction to the dark and evil, and my laid back nature of person. I totally personify these water signs and find that with each year that passes these traits are engrained even more deeply into not only my soul but all of my art.

I find that connecting with so many individuals all across the board in many industries who simply enjoy what I do is the most gratifying aspect of my work. Whether connecting with a young artist, musician, or skater I hope I can always inspire and nurture the original creative qualities in all who I link up to. When working as an independent artist and consultant it is the journey through creating exceptional imagery for clients who respectively come back to give praise and seek future collaborative opportunities that keep me engaged and inspired.

Thanks to D Port and SkinnyBuddha for representing my hard work and offering good wishes on my birthday! Skinny Buddha family always!

Beery Birthday

This is just a huge shout out and enormous thank you to all my fans, fellow artists, friends, and family who have supported my all my goals and work. I couldn’t do it without you all…you are the best and I got nothing but hot lava love for you all…MAD THANKS!

Here is my latest design for Nomadic Skateboards Seattle 2010 line. Originally titled Rocket Rocker (now Sky Rider) it was my inner ghost trying to be released that went into this killer deck design. Breezing though the air or carving out some pavement, this phantom is dropping the dynamite to explode into the skate shops near you. Available from Nomadic Skateboards and through various retailers in the Pacific Northwest.

I simply had to put in a submission for Threadless Loves contest Innovation. Innovation flows in and out of our world’s cities in a systematical flow. Like the circular system of our being information runs down the and out the web of overpasses and fast lanes into the grid of modelers and information architects. Thus feeds the reformation of an age of GI: Global Intelligence – Innovate • Create • Recalibrate
