For all those of you just tuning in, I was commissioned to create a stop-motion short film in collaboration with WereHaus shortly before the end of 2011 and the release date is now on the horizon. The project is complete…and it will slowly emerge on the internet scene sometime next week. Below are some screenshots from the behind the scenes video edit provided by the video team.

We all worked long and hard on this one to provide you with something very new and unique. Be on the look out!

I am proud to unveil my latest commission from Red Bull for this year’s Red Bull Music Academy that’s going down in SF & NYC. It measures 6 feet wide — features metallic line work of both SF and NY district maps and contains 2 lights in the back for that added glow effect. This was a fun piece to create and with every project, I learn new techniques that apply back to my fine art practice. Win!

Things are moving and shaking. Check out some photos from my last event, METEOR, where a couple of friends and I pulled off an improvisational installation for all to witness. Needless to say, it was an amazing time — stay tuned for the next strike.

Santos Shelton and Noa- doing what they do best.

Just when I thought the year 2011 was done, I landed a stop-motion film project 2 weeks before the holiday break that sent me into a neck breaking work mode. Commissioned by TaskForce and in collaboration with WereHaus the video is about having confidence in the New Year. I will do my best to hold back the surprise, but we are all damn excited to release this piece to the world! Stay close.

Here are just a few photos from early production…

A few photos from my latest show “Afterlife” over at Cukui in Japantown, San Jose. Be sure to drop by the show in person as it will be on view though the first week of January. All photos courtesy of Zach Davenport.

In conjunction with the show, we printed up a shirt design using some of my artwork. Get your t-shirt here.

I am a day late on this, but let’s just say it has been one crazy week. My latest screen print is now available. Hand printed by Nat at Bloom Press in Oakland — so you know they are the business! Purchase yours at Raw Goods or by attending one of my two shows opening this weekend.
