'Little Big' @ Haven Gallery this Saturday

Hey guys! I've been bad at sharing on here as of late, so in order to catch up a little, there's a couple things to mention. First off, 'Little Big' is opening at the Haven Gallery in Northport this coming Saturday, November 21st! I'll have one very tiny 8x8" painting for show and sale there. Not a size I typically work in.

For anyone interested in purchasing from the show or viewing the work in person, you can find more info through the gallery website. Feel free to email them about the early preview.

Here's a couple pics of my piece: Entwine, 8x8", oil on board.




And my other bit of news concerns a very special Star Wars themed show 'Art Awakens' being held through Gallery 1988 LA. Though the physical pop up show has been taken down as of this weekend, the work will be up for auction through Ebay from now till November 23rd! In collaboration with Lucas Films and Disney, the gallery is selling the work with a good percentage going towards charity. 

Anyone interested in my piece or the other works from the show, can find them through ebay.

Studio Sale - Tues. Sept 1st

Hey Guys! I'm going to be having a special studio sale on my Etsy shop next Tuesday, September 1st @ 11am EST to help offset some recent vet bills I've accumulated. Due to serious health issues with my sweet cat Juggs, I've gone well over my means to do all that I can. Thankfully, after being in and out of the vet everyday for the last 2 weeks and an expensive surgery, he appears to be well on his way to a full recovery!

If anyone is interested in picking up some old or newer works from me at a good discount, next Tuesday is the best time to do so! Most of the work will be of a cartoon/illustrative nature, but there will be a few older oil paintings as well for sale. 

You can find my shop here. I'll post everything up at exactly 11am EST. 
Here's a few below, but I'll have around 10 pieces in total <3

  

 Thanks so much!

Superhero @ Modern Eden

Superhero - the annual portrait invitational show at Modern Eden Gallery, opens this Saturday June 13th! With the theme in mind, I took my piece in a different direction than majority of my work. Inspired by anime growing up as a teen and continuing to enjoy the style from time to time, I decide to paint up Ghost in the Shell's Major Kusanagi.

Anyone interested in the piece can contact the gallery. Images and info below:

'Inner Universe', 14x18", acrylic on canvas.

"Beauty in the Breakdown" opening night + paintings!

Last weekend my joint show alongside artist, Camilla d'Errico opened at the Thinkspace Gallery in LA. Here are a few opening night pics, along with some images of the paintings from the show. Due to the fact that this blog often distorts the colour of my images though, I definitely suggest viewing the works online at through the Thinkspace website as well. Show is open till March 21st!

Many, many thanks to those that came out to support and say hi! I don't get out to LA very often, but it's always such a treat when I do <3
