A fire gently smoldering… like creativity… a warm glow in the soul.

…these lights behind frosted glass captured my attention recently whilst at YAC’s Live Art Event. Seemed like an appropriate place to become inspired.

This whole mural business got into The Herald newspaper! 

The collaboration at Rollick’s Coffee has made the news… take that Stupid Vandals… lemonade from lemons… coffee from coffee beans… and murals from paint!

Recently, I tag-teamed with Trish Sullivan’s Hartnell art class to beautify the semi-temporary plywood window-fix over at Rollick’s Coffee in Salinas. I think this is better than a silly ol’ window…

I Have been HORRIBLY negligent to this website. My EXTREME apologies to anyone who may have come here looking for me. I have been on squidrowcomics.com… giving it more of my attention. I, however… have finally made it back… Forgive me?
