Let it all out.

I'm really glad my brother Collin came to visit a couple years ago. We really worked out all possible issues... at least I think we did. I certainly talked a lot.

Healing Club

Seriously. My brother's expression is priceless.

Death, Decay and other Fun Subjects

SPECIAL


Really proud of this piece. Mainly because it evokes and communicates something personal to me -- my feelings on the inevitable.

I did a lot of artwork over the weekend and it was so fulfilling. I've been on a writing tear as of late and hadn't done much drawing/tracing/photoshopping, but I got a little bit of an image-craving this Holiday Weekend, and cranked out some new portraits after finding a strange bit of inspiration via the theme of decay and demise.

I Heart LA




I know how uplifiting that sounds. But can't something terrifying be turned into something beautiful?

4 YEARS LATER...

Back_to_his_FUTURE

I moved to Los Angeles 4 years ago without a single connection. Yesterday, I was assigned my first co-writing gig on an HBO series.

Time flies when you're busting your ass.

Thanks, Universe.

Post-Halloween-Distress

I AIN'T FRAID OF NO...

Video Ghosts

...GHOSTS.

Once again, I waited until the last minute and then half-assed a "look" for Halloween. And that look was "Tall Guy with vague zombie Makeup," which was better than my original inclination, "Bloody Guy".

I managed to stay out until 4am without really having the time of my life. Youth is overrated. Sometimes.

I like to think of myself as a fairly creative guy, but when it comes to Halloween, I'm completely past my prime.

Binky Rudich Grows Up

Master_of_Universe

When I was a kid, I performed in a community theater production of a play called REVENGE OF THE SPACE PANDAS: OR, BINKY RUDICH AND THE 2 SPEED CLOCK.

I had the lead role of child genius inventor Binky Rudich. It was a colossal failure. We had zero attendance a couple matinees.

I hadn't thought about it in years. So I googled the play. It was written by some guy named David Mamet.

...

David Mamet. Wrote a kids play. About Space Pandas. And talking sheep.

Nice to know I've performed Mamet on stage.

Leaving a Mark.

Been thinking a lot lately about what we leave behind. Hopefully it's something good...

Son of the Damned

I guess if one thinks about dying too much, one could get rather bummed. I suppose civilization has a short memory. My only mission is to create a few things worth remembering.

Old Pictures. New Art.

It's an old day. It's an old dawn. And I'm feelin' new.
