I am working on a movie rn and it is causing emotional turmoil because it feels so large, but I hope to share that soon.

recent moving wooden objects recent autobiographical paintings recent google maps landscape paintings in 2025 I loved making this 50 foot banner for outdoor art fair "en route" Curated and organized by Jess Bass and Yue Xu I am also excited to be getting into etching through pigeon hole press. so far i love it. I was going to be working on this series of smaller etchings and I was given the plates to do some hard ground drawings on at home, but I didnt realize that the chemicals only were good for like a week or something. so I guess I should check in before I etch onto these plates that very well may be expired. My last big show was a duo show in which I made foam carvings and MDF pedastals, "Morality Play" at Sawhorse. Paintings from Remote Desire at SULK Chicago with my wonderful partner Tatiana Sky I was in a fasntastic group show at Circle Contemporary called "opening night" and showed the first 2 of these paintings I just particularly wanted you to see this painting. It is an older one but I think it is one of the best and it has never been shown publicly and it is like seven feet tall here are a couple of personal painting I made for friends large scale green drawings In 2021 I had a solo show at the latent space in chicago called Carousel. big paintings: past assorted medium small paintings

Contact me on instagram to purchase or visit my studio in chicago. I have also been thinking alot about creating a new artist run warehouse in chicago for more studio space, making art and film sets and fostering community amongst artists. I am mostly just putting that out there on my website as a way to manifest, or if you happen to be a real estate overlord or a millionare and you want to collaborate with me on secuing more space that would be great.
