I was honored to be included in Michael Jordan’s 50th Birthday Party Exhibition, curated and produced by Doubleday & Cartwright http://doubledayandcartwright.com/ 50 artists were chosen to create work inspired by stories from Jordan’s life. My assignment was to repaint his high school prom photo, straight forward but alot of fun. The show was held at the Houston Art Museum during NBA All-Star Weekend, and presented to Michael Jordan as a coffee table book. Thanks again to Kimou and Dudley at DD&C.

Good friend, Rodrigo Melgarejo http://rodrigomelgarejophotography.com/ made this video of me, messing around the studio. Many thanks to him, Keenan Newman http://highlowfilm.com/, Adam Garcia http://thepressure.org/, and Aaron Hall http://digaponyportland.com/
I have some spot illustrations in the current issue of Orange Coast Magazine. They are part of a Mexican Food Guide for Orange County. It was kind of a trip painting tacos and hot sauce bottles in the dead of a Portland winter. I found myself craving Al Pastor on a daily basis, and begging for sunshine. I need a vacation! Thanks to AD Mindy Benham, great spread. The lettering is not mine, though it is beautiful.

I’m having a solo show on Feb. 1 at One Grand Gallery, in Portland. www.onegrandgallery.com
“The Years” is a show consisting of 12 new paintings. The Chinese Zodiac, is a scheme, and a systematic plan of future action. Each year relates to an animal and its reputed attributes, according to a 12-year cycle. Within this collection of paintings the Chinese Zodiac serves as a template of which to work within. The animal symbols are used as vehicles to try new things with the medium using the language developed in my daily studio practice. Looking beyond their historical and cultural context the iconic images of the Zodiac transform into compositions about color, shape, and energy. The results are images that are contemporary and unique, yet based in tradition and process.
Opening Reception is from 7-9 on Feb.1.

This is my contribution to the the 2012 Premier Press Holiday Calendar. www.premierpress.com. A project art directed by the insanely talented and always inspiring, Adam Garcia www.thepressure.org. Thematically, the calendar showcases artist’s work about process, using the various printing techniques to create a beautiful collaborative product. My piece, “Happy Accident” is meant to show my process and how I let the accidents and experiments dictate how my final images come together. Finding the beauty and freedom in experimentation. 12 artists, 12 months, and can’t wait to see the final printing. I’ll post more images once they come in from the shop
