Exhibit a Phoenix 21 image in your home! :) Just leave a comment below or tweet about it #L4T is the hashtag. Must have a 4 foot by 4 foot wall to install the work on. Must live in the Phoenix Area. I'll be selecting the 7 homes on Friday.

You do it to yourself, that's what really hurts

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 02:01:00 GMT

Back to some real reflection and away from those contrived little vignettes. What value do we place on art in our community?

It's my work

Tue, 07 Jul 2009 00:34:01 GMT

Continuing to answer the question: What is it? These answers are following the format of a presentation that I'm developing called "What is art?"

I talk a little bit about my concerns with the downturn in the economy. And then Chuck Reynolds makes a guest appearance on Lying to Tell the Truth. I finish the podcast optimistically.

1 of 1 Destroyed

Wed, 04 Feb 2009 17:23:02 GMT

The business of recording my own history as an artist. I've constantly got to protect the value of my work. Today I had to destroy a 1/1 photograph because it had a kink in it.

Community what is it online and off? Is it different? Is it the same? How do we facilitate real community again? Is it even important?

Seeing is Believeing

This show is a day late due to a cathartic life changing event. I produced and signed the 1/1 works for Phoenix 21. I am ready but scared shitless.

Influence Rothko Motherwell

Thu, 22 Jan 2009 00:15:03 GMT

Relaying a recent conversation with artist Kyle Jordre about my influences. Abstract expressionism and Mark Rothko being a main influence on my work. I ascribe to a formalism that requires knowledge of history. Oh, and PWNIES!

How much is that doggy in the window?

Tue, 20 Jan 2009 06:21:00 GMT

Worked on Tempe 20 today even though I didn't want to. Because I think that is what a professional does. Also a little bit about the business of Art and how I became an independent artist.

Some time to think

Thu, 08 Jan 2009 01:09:00 GMT

I am one of those people who rarely, if ever turns off. My mind is running like mad all the time. I often wondered as a kid what it would be like to just not think for even a few moments. Is everyone this "thoughtful"?

Art and Philosophy

Mon, 29 Dec 2008 23:11:02 GMT

There is a personal link to philosophy in my work. But I am no dedicated scholar of the subject. The key tenants in my work are observation, expression, and personal responsibility. Enjoy.
