Adam Friedman studio visit

A few months ago while visiting Portland, Oregon, Jennifer and I dropped by Adam Friedman‘s studio.  Seems like high time to share these photos – given that his show is coming up.  Good dude.  Good work.  Good time. Enjoy.  Be there if you can>…

Studio Visit : Justin Waugh

I’ve known Justin Waugh for quite awhile now.  He and I shared an apartment/studio back in Charleston, SC 1998-200 and have kept close contact over the years since.  While down in LA this past weekend, Jennifer and I finally got a chance to see his studio and check out some of the things he’s been making.  I always enjoy how he opens the gate between the living and working space.

Justin will have work in a group show which opens May 4th in Los Angeles at Elephant Art Space.

For additional info, check out his WEBSITE.

  

A few of Justin’s palettes made it to my Palette Cleanser blog.

More Very Early Poetry from My Late Teens…

A few new entries from the ongoing found antique book series, “Very Early Poetry From My Late Teens“.  I just sent these out via USPS to Rebekah Jacob Gallery in Charleston, SC.

Interview via RJG

Rebekah Jacob Gallery posted a recent interview.

In the studio…

A couple custom ordered flasks, a commission for uber-talented director, Mark Romanek and a weird one I’ve been wrestling with is getting closer to completion.

Trade with Stephanie Inagaki!

One of my favorite things about being an artist is trading with my uber-talented friends.  Case in point, this piece I just got through a long overdue trade with Stephanie Inagaki.  Stephanie also makes some really great jewelry/accessories – check out Miyu Decay for evidence.
