'ONLY HAPPY WHEN IT RAINS' ©2024
I took a vacation to Florida recently and what did it do the whole time? It rained. Which is what inspired this piece. I'm not particularly happy when it rains. I love sunshine and blue skies, but, living through Southern California's seasons of drought, we've learned to appreciate the precious dew from heaven.

'THE EVE OF DESTRUCTION PART VI' ©2025
This piece is part of 'The Eve of Destruction' hexaptych. Simply inspired by the song of the same name by Barry McGuire. Although the imagery of this hexaptych is from the Vietnam War era, the lyrics are quite credible today.
'THE SISTERS MEDUSA' ©2018
These fabulous femmes were inspired by fabulous hairstyle models. I wanted the colors of this piece to be as dramatic as the subject matter, with the exotic and distressed textures and the street art style I'm a big fan of; you will see these elements often in my works.

'HUNTINGTON BEACH BEAUTIES' ©2020
Part of the Cali Dreaming Triptych. Thinking of visiting Southern California with its endless miles of beaches, sun and sand? With its millions of bodies bumping up against each other and its endless stream of traffic belching exhaust into the air, best pack your gas mask or stay home.
'DINER THIS WAY' ©2025
Part of the Diner Culture Polyptych, the series brings back wonderful memories to those who were fortunate enough to experience road trips during bygone eras, neon, and something going the way of the dodo and dinosaur; the diner. Also known as the hash house, the beanery, the eatery, the greasy spoon, the dive...you get the picture.
'THE EVE OF DESTRUCTION PART IV' ©2025
Another piece of 'The Eve of Destruction' hexaptych. Because by now you know I like my art on the apocalyptic side.
'A TIKI'S TAILE' ©2018
How fun is this piece? Created as a nod to my love of Tiki Culture. Perhaps inspired by listening to one too many Arthur Lyman albums growing up. Whatever the case, what can be more crazy cool than a mermaid smoking a cigarillo while a volcano erupts in the background? Not much, I imagine.

'SHE WEARS MY ART ON HER SLEEVES' 2021
This piece is aptly named as her sleeves are comprised of many pieces of my artworks. I've always been fascinated with tattoos, from the time I was a kid and hoping to find the lick and stick tattoo in my box of Cracker Jack. Sadly, tattoos are de rigueur in today's society but I like what the artistry.

'TIGER LILY' ©2018
Tiger Lily is a colorful character. Vivid with tropical foliage and multiple textures, she may not be a traditional beauty but understands the nature of true beauty...being comfortable in one's individual skin.

'THE BOSS. PERIOD.' ©2025
This piece was created to punk AI art. On a stock photo site I frequently use for design work, I came across an AI-generated photo of a lion in a suit. I took that AI-generated photo and turned it into human-generated art. Because art made by human hands will always be The Boss. Period.
