Here are some photos from last night at Studio 516 here in Portland, OR. My friend Alyson Bowen and coworker Erik braved the shitty weather to hang out in this amazing space with Doug Burns (left pic) and Tammy Jo Wilson (right pic) and their fantastic work.

I give thanks for Yorgos Lanthimos. My partner and I saw “Bugonia” last night and really enjoyed it. The art direction at the end is stellar.

A foggy #evening in Portland, OR - for the #blueskyartshow - I used to be a regular at this place when I worked around the corner. That was 2016-2020. I was in the neighborhood again a few months ago to see a concert and took this pic.

I’ve been spending the majority of my art time cleaning up scans of my “Year Zero” series (2022-24) for an upcoming artists’ book. Not fun, but necessary. #art

My friend and collaborator @marc-fischer.bsky.social and I did the most important thing you can do at the Chicago Art Institute yesterday. I guess they have art too? Thank you Marc for being our tour guide. Photo by @catsofpdxor.bsky.social

If you have Criterion Channel check out “Beyond The Visible - Hilma af Klint”. I have been aware of her art for years but it’s nice to get a more complete picture. #art

Untitled Sketch - 5.27.24 - I keep this little sketchbook on my at all times just in case. This is probably the best drawing in there at the moment. I’ll probably make a tiny little book out of them down the road. #art #drawing #contemporaryart
