This piece will be the basis for some upcoming customs, possibly at SDCC or NYCC. Painted with acrylics on 8" x 10" canvas, it's available for purchase in my store here. Titled "Space Parable No. 4 - As Below, So Above". I quite like this piece and there will be others in this style.

Game On! Exhibition @1AM San Francisco

1:AM Gallery in San Francisco opened their Game On exhibition where I contributed a few pieces. One was a 7" Coin Up and 8" Dunny combo titled “It Started with a Glance (and Ended with a Fever)".

I also submitted a painting inspired by one of my favorite nostalgia-inducing video games, Metroid. It's an 16x20" Acrylic on Canvas piece titled "My First Crush".. This piece might make for nice art prints in the near future in my store!
