If you are in California and are a thinking person- please, in the name of democracy and humanity, vote YES on Prop 50 by November 4th.
This isn’t some partisan game. This is our defense against a fascist takeover.
We MUST DO THIS. VOTE YES ON PROP 50.

I drew this back in 2018.
What’s happening isn’t an accident. It’s the intentional dismantling of our country.
And it’s clear who benefits from that.
Putin has been infiltrating us for at least two decades.

An entity from a man's past returns to torment -or save- his soul.
The trailer for my long in progress animated horror feature film, BOXHEAD.
It's hand drawn and I've been working on it for many years.
