The Raid Painting

I was born in 1966, in Hollywood, California. I was born into a family of professional fine artists. My parents were two of the early pioneers of the LA street art festival circuit in the early 70's. It's in these fine art festivals that I have cultivated a very large and loyal US following. I am currently seeking representation abroad. Interested parties can reach me through my website.

My art has gone through various evolutions in the last two decades. I am probably most recognized for my hyper-stylized, kinetic portrayals of urbanite hooligans, musicians and athletes. These early Contemporary Pop Figuratives were the perfect subjects for him to refine and cultivate his unique ability to bend, twist and contort the perspectives of the human figure in motion. An avid animal lover, many of my favorite furry friends have staked their claim amidst the compositions of these earlier figurative works. In my latest body of work, I've completely redirected the focus from the figure to that of the animal realm.

These mystical creatures often posess human-like characteristics that serve as a whimsical reflection and satirical commentary on the adventurous plight of the human condition. The subjects are placed in both familiar and dream like realities where their actions and expressions convey the pure truth of completely existing in the moment. In the NOW.
Many of my paintings are really subliminal self portraits to a large degree. Compositions become stories that slowly reveal themselves to me over time.
