I’ve learnt from experience that a painting isn’t finished when you put down your brush – that’s when it starts. The public reaction is what supplies meaning and value. Art comes alive in the arguments you have about it.

dear art viewer

dear art viewer

im currently looking for 50 or so people who would be interested in making monthly micro donations of 6 dollars a month. the funds raised through these micro donations will be used to buy specially prepared water color canvas and other art supplies for larger works. the funds will also be used to help me hire an artist assistant so i can work on larger more complex works, and projects.

you will also receive monthly updates via email, free shipping on prints and get other forms of information earlier than non-subscribers.

new project

i recently bought a tape duplication machine from ebay, and it has given me the idea to start an old school tape label , but instead of putting out stuff by people with music/sound back grounds i would like to put out material by people with visual and poetic backgrounds.  


the machine i bought from ebay can make 3 copies of the master cassettes at once, and it only dups in MONO. for logistical purposes each release will be 20 min long [10min per side], i plan to make 60 copies of each tape, and the artist will get 30 copies. each cassette will sell for 8USD ppd. i also plan to release 1 tape a month starting in February of next year.

if you're interested in getting involved w/ this project please contact me asap.
