The buck was captured in rays of photon beams in a gamma forest. It was scanned as a sentient being and remains as such, still out there with the foliage and light shifts. The beams come and go, but they mostly know, mostly. Dimensions and specs forthcoming upon inquiry.

If you live in Portland and find yerself in the NE Broadway area, swing by the Swift Lounge (1932 NE Broadway) and you just might see several, many new works hanging on the walls there. Swift is a great new little bar and you should go to sample the good & affordable food along with the swifty strong drinks. And yeah, there is some art there too. Below is a new piece titled "Nature by Numbers" it is not at Swift but rather permeating the atmospheric pressure of a soon to be moved 5th wheel.

The time is here and now and once again I will be part of the exciting world of Enormous Tiny Art, aka, ETA! This very cool showing of artists working within the smaller aspect ratio of creative compulsion takes place in Los Angeles with an opening reception on June 12th with the show continuing until July 10th. If you find yerself in the LA area awash in the blinding Southern California light, enter the Living Room gallery in hip Silverlake and have yer burning retinas soothed by awesome enormous tiny art. I won't be there, but several of my pieces will be along with the old ghosts of Farley and Ritter. Please say hello to them for me.

In the time of animal to earth stance now forever breathes this lonely world, the Elk King is here, and rejoins the herds to propel forward thinking into days folding end on end. Elk King's light source remains enigmatic.

Just wanted to say thanks so much to the kind folks who stopped by my table at the recent Crafty Wonderland. It was sort of a weird but enjoyable weekend; vastly different from the holiday sale in December. I enjoyed the opportunity to speak with many people regarding my art and the process involved. I think I really made more connections with fellow artists and patrons this time more than I had in December. The holiday sale was a whirlwind of insanity, so I felt I couldn't spend as much time speaking with people. This time was different and much more placid. Portland is a strange and beautiful little city filled with amazing talent and diverse personalities. Only here could Crafty Wonderland be a reality in our odd little lives. Some say this city is like living in a bubble, and I have to agree on some level, but I'd much rather be stuck here than say Lancaster, CA. (the town I grew up in) where the cultural epicenter is the local 40 megaplex theater stationed next to a super sized Wal Mart store. Yuck. Anyway, peace and love and freedom and beards and handmade goods and art and bicycles and tight jeans and brewpubs and artists - lots of artists.

I am excited to say that I will once again be part of Portland's illustrious Crafty Wonderland Super Colossal Sale. This time around it'll be two days of handmade craziness at the Portland Convention center. Look for my booth with the Wildlife Analysis and Nature Paths works beaming through the florescent lights. I hope to see you there!

For several years I was involved with a band called The Rum Diary situated within the far reaches of Northern California amidst the skylarks and landlocked boats. We were a group of friends with shared musical chemistry. We created a sound that we were proud of and held our heads high along the weird and somewhat tumultous road that most independent rock bands travel. We lasted a while and it was a very fun and exciting time in my life. Now, in this new and ever so different life, the Parks and Records music label is releasing a Rum Diary Retrospective CD. On this disc are many songs collected from the three official albums, which we released from 2000-2007. Also collected here are a few b-side gems, one of which I am especially excited about (High Hawk). Please visit the kind folks at Parks and Records by clicking the link above and pre-order this retrospective at a very reasonable price. And remember: the gamers were loathed, the gamers were hated, they stayed in their rooms and learned diatonic measures.
