queer artist making paintings and sculpture in Chicago while trying to figure out how to get through the next 4 years
A new painting and some process shots. Untitled at the moment. I've been painting a lot of red paintings these days.

Red has always been my favorite color--there’s strength in red but also warmth and security. I also think about red as a future color in our climate crisis but I’m not sure why.

I’m excited to announce that I’m now represented by Thomas McCormick Gallery! You can see my work in their current exhibition, Contemporary Curated, running from April 10 - May 23, 2025.

One of the pieces included is "On the Rock" (2024)

12 x 9 inches

Nocturnal
Acrylic and oil on panel, 12 x 9 inches
2024

My work lives in the space between abstraction and representation. It’s a process of discovery—of allowing the painting to reveal what it needs to be. Nocturnal reflects the quiet intensity and spiritual pull of the natural world after dark.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Reworked this painting after 'finishing' it in 2024 - does that officially makes it my first 2025 painting?

You’d think the media would pick up on the fact that Trump and Maga, who supposedly give a shit about Christianity, are far more upset about a sermon preaching humanity and compassion, than they are over the Nazi salute😏🤨

Bryan MacCormack, the executive director of a New York-based immigrant rights group, was pulled over by CBP with two undocumented passengers in the vehicle. He knew his rights, refused to acknowledge their "warrant", and despite CBP threatening him, the agents eventually were forced to let him go.

Just logged out of all my Meta accounts until the 26th. It would be great if this platform takes off.
Finally finished this painting
