Hello friends! I’m excited to be heading to Los Angeles soon for my wedding. To celebrate I’m throwing an art party beforehand. I’m bringing 25 paintings with me that can be purchased and taken home with you. So cool!!
I’ll be there to say hello on both evenings. Come on out and see some art!
Hey friend!! I’m excited to announce that I have a new book available. My publisher, Spire and Scribe and myself worked together all year pulling together artwork from over the years. We have collected images of over 1200 paintings totaling 292 pages!! This is a must have for any collector. If you want to get more details please go HERE
Thank you!!
Hey friend! I’m excited to be working with my friends over at House of Roulx again. This time we released a brand new print titled “Good Luck Roar”. I feel like it’s so easy to project a negative viewpoint of the world and with social media it’s never been easier to do so.
I wanted to make a piece that rejected that feeling of sadness and negativity. So I think that if we see ourselves as tigers who wake up every morning ready to roar “Good Luck” we are off to a good start!
There is a standard version and a hand embellished version of the print. Both are limited, come signed and numbered from House of Roulx.
They can be purchased HERE
I was in an old funeral home this week for a project. I walked past an old desk and saw this poem under the glass. Don’t Quit.
I left my job as a funeral director to pursue my dream of being an artist. Although I love what I do and wouldn’t want to do anything else I’d be lying if I didn’t tell myself many many times in my career as an artist that “I Quit”, “I’m Done”, “This Will Never Work”. I’ve had people tell me to do my art as a hobby and go get a job, that really helped my confidence.
But since I’ve started I’ve shown art all over the world and have done projects with amazing people and brands. My gallery shows keep getting bigger, the opportunities keep coming and my brand keeps growing.
I’m going to keep going and keep proving to others and myself that quitting is not an option
Hey friends!! Well just got back from San Jose and boy are my arms tired. Come on Mike, seriously?
My show “Welcome Home” opened at Anno Domini Art Gallery on May 3rd! I was in town to do the install and well paint a full sized house inside the art gallery. Ok, now my arms are tired. Nailed it!
I’m very proud of this show. This is some of my best work yet. It felt fresh and exciting to make this show. I’d love for you to see the show in person if you can make it but if you can’t please check it out HERE
Excited that this is the first time that the gallery is doing payment plans on the artwork!! Please check the gallery website for details or shoot them an email.
Also please share this show with whoever you think would love the work!! Word of mouth can be the strongest way to help sell some art!
Thanks so much!! Lots of love to you.
Here is the show flyer! And all of the details. Loved the font on the show title.
That’s me! Standing inside the entrance of the house in the gallery.
“Take This Skull Home” 60”X48” on Canvas.
Here is the full house!! It is 8 feet by 8 feet. I did a full paint job on it while I was in town. This turned out exactly how I wanted it to. So happy!
A happy accident! When we got the paintings on the wall I was walkiing around the gallery and stopped and there it was…
The windows of the house lined up perfectly with the two large paintings on the wall.
I’m so excited to finally release my first run of ceramics! This has always been something that I wanted to do with my art. I love the idea of pushing myself into other mediums and helping to grow how I present my artwork.
This is also a way to help reduce my production of vinyl toys. I envision using ceramics to produce my figures that can sit on people’s shelves. It’s also a way to make functional artwork. So my figures in ceramic form could hold flowers or candles. There are so many possibilities.
I’m very excited to start off 2024 with a new series of paintings in Austin, TX. This is the first time I’m working with Warden Art Agency. An art agency can work as an art gallery but also works with designers who are decorating homes for clients. In person viewings are by appointment only however the collection can be viewed and paintings can be purchased on their website. For more information please go HERE
I’m excited to be returning to Los Angeles with a brand new body of work! I’ll be showing 16 new pieces at Copro Gallery in Santa Monica.

If you are interested in reserving a piece from the show early you can contact the gallery directly at copronason@msn.com for details

I was out in San Jose, CA at Anno Domini Gallery for the opening of my solo show “Death God Love”!! This is my fourth solo show with the gallery. It’s always fun to have complete control of the space and do whatever I want. Knowing the gallery I wanted to break up each section into a theme. One with Death paintings, the middle with God paintings and the third with Love paintings. The opening was amazing with lots of people coming to see, buy art and say hello to me. If you’d like to see the show please check out the gallery website HERE

I’ve been busy designing my newest resin toy with my friends over at DKE toys! Boo the cat is finally here, just in time for Halloween. I couldn’t have him come alone so I brought his friends Bones and Lucky as well. Each figure is done in Halloween orange and black, limited to 31 figures each. They come in a screen printed box that is signed and numbered. Once this colorway sells out they will be gone forever so hurry and grab one now!!
I talk about what’s been going on with me and my upcoming solo show at Thinkspace Projects in LA
