Excited to share a collaboration with artist Damon Brown aka Creative Lou, making a portrait of a Seattle icon, Sir Mix-a-lot.

I started this Seattle Icons series to highlight the wealth of arts and culture in the Pacific Northwest.

Collaboration with artist and musician Perry Porter at the Amazon Spheres Understory, featuring his original song “Watercolors”.

Perry made a 9x12 ft painting of musician Tina Bell, front woman of the band Bam Bam, pioneer of the Seattle sound and influenced musicians like Kurt Cobain

Portraits from Cuba. I traveled to Havana, Trinidad, and Cienfuegos in 2017. The jump roping girl was outside of a weightlifting gym in old Havana

Fez, Morocco in 2018. The city is known for their tanneries, where leather has been produced for centuries. The vats are filled with tanning solution organically derived from a mixture of cow urine and feces, and the odor was so powerful it made my eyes water

Lydia Gerard’s portal paintings remind me of galaxies floating in space, so I wanted to light these portraits to evoke the same feeling, while also tying in her background in dance.

Behind the scenes and a sneak peek at my latest collaboration with artist and model Aziza Saliev @.
Aziza made a 9x12 foot acrylic painting on muslin, and a smaller abstract canvas that I draped on her. I was inspired by Alexander McQueen, specifically a dress painted with shotguns.

This collaborative painting was made by 5 people led by artist Dez’Mon Omega Fair in my studio. These sessions have been such a bright point in a stressful time, and I am overjoyed by how it’s evolved. It’s reminded me that one of the best things about art is how it connects people together.
