Wear masks. Don’t carry your phone. Sit down and point if violence erupts around you. Don’t talk to the cops if you’re arrested. #nokings #resist #resistance #resistencia #pottery

I create videos with tips on how to fight fascism on YouTube under The Pollination. I might start posting them here too if I can ever get a video processed. #fightfascism #resist #resistance #rebel #socialactivist

More bagel portraits for my upcoming show at the Bagelry. I have also written historical fiction on the back of each piece on how that specific bagel came to be known/appreciated in that particular neighborhood. #pnwart #foodart #art #bagel #bellingham #mixedmedia

Two of the bagel paintings I have made for my show at The Bagelry in Bellingham. The paintings are mounted on sections of Bellingham walking maps and each come with a fictionalized history of the bagel and the neighborhood to which it belongs. #art #pnwart #maker #foodart #food #bagelart

New clay paintings. This is a further exploration into memory and how emotions change lived experiences as time moves on. The balls in the small squares reference space as memory recedes. The abstracted images are meant to be abstracted landscapes. #clayart #art #painting #abstract
