Thank you for a great evening at this year’s annual gala fundraiser 🍾

If you’re not familiar with Albany Center Gallery they are a 47 year old non-profit that exists solely to support artists in the New York region and to bring “More Art Everywhere” as their motto goes. These people are tip top 👌🏼

I recently had the pleasure to work with them on my most recent mural in Albany “A Journey Woven Through Time” and look forward to the next project together in the future!

Midway through a new piece in Albany, NY!

Thanks for making it happen

I love an opportunity to weave some local history into the work. This recent wall is located just a few blocks from the 100 year old electric railway arches built by Henry Ford to supply his factories in Detroit. The rail line only operated for a few years but the concrete and steel relics remain over a century later.

Thanks .colors for the fun opportunity!

It is wild to think that it’s been about 10 years since I painted this piece in the East Village at the Project Renewal Men’s Shelter on 3rd Street for 🤯

Created specifically for the Hi-Vis exhibition at the Buffalo Albright Knox Museum , the “Entropic Edifice” diptych builds on themes from the mural I created for the museum’s public art program in 2022. The title refers to the eternal cycle, the new growing from the old, the thin veneer of separation from our human world and the natural world.

Hi-Vis opens this Friday, February 21st and remains on view through June 9th!

Lately, I’ve been traveling to create work without any preconceived design and I just spend a bit of time there before starting the piece. It’s always a bit stressful at the beginning but as soon as the idea coalesces the process becomes really satisfying and feels like new growth. This painting is about the new growing out of the old, partially inspired by a few little shrubs growing atop the Parroquia de San Miguel de Arcángel.

Thanks again to the best hosts Annie and Juan Carlos for the opportunity!

For this year’s Climate Week I had the opportunity to collaborate with the scientific community and interpret some of ‘s climate research in the form of a layered painted sail installation on the terrace of the .

The work incorporates patterns created by heat maps generated by decades of climate research. These particular maps illustrate heat anomalies of the ocean’s surface temperature and the relationship between rising atmospheric temperatures and last year’s unprecedented Canadian wildfires that affected air quality over much of the North East and Mid West. As the work hangs above our heads it illustrates how multiple cascading factors are overlapping to create the urgent global crisis we find ourselves in now.

Managed one last gasp of summer while painting in Michigan last week at the first . Massive thanks to .colors for bringing me out for this fun double wall challenge complete with unlimited access to ice cream and frozen custard to get us through the long days!

The mural depicts the Alvin Clark, the first vessel built in Trenton, a place that would go on to be an important center of shipbuilding in the Great Lakes region. The Alvin Clark capsized in a gale in 1864 in Green Bay but was later discovered in the 1960s resulting in the ship being raised and put on display. Unfortunately there was no conservation plan in place and the old ship rotted beyond feasible restoration. Built of white oak, the ship had come full circle from tree back into soil.

A lovely time making the new piece in Portsmouth, England for .portsmouth

Lots of little local nuggets referenced in the work including some of Portsmouth and Southsea’s architectural stonework, chestnut blossoms, and some bits from the Mary Rose wreck…
