I used to work in Manhattan as an āart handlerā which means you move art around for people. One of my coworkers went on to become a successful fine artist. He mostly paints these things called āNight Car.ā Its very very fun to look at. Itās fine art so basically you either understand it or you are a troglodyte. I canāt afford any of the paintings but he did make me a tiny cheeseburger as a gift one time which is just as good to me because it has a beautiful story.

šØI have been collecting art my entire adult life, starting from my days 20 years ago as a student at RISD. When I see something I love, I do not hesitate to buy it. At this point, my walls have no room for more art, but that does not stop me when the art is really good. I am obsessed with my latest art purchases, these prints by LA artist Nick Pini. Abstract figures rendered with digital charcoal, giving me all the right energy and attitude. I bought Caught This For You and No Nightmares No Dreams because I instantly connected with them. I framed one of them in this Neon pink frame and itās perfection. Ok now I want to go buy more...gotta go!

šbuy your friends art or buy a strangers art. not the mass produced stuff but that weird little sketch or painting or whatever. support folks, sometimes you find out 20 years later that someone was in the whitney biennial and you have one of their drawings from when they were a teenager and thatās pretty cool. buy stuff for $25 or $2000 or whatever you can afford - give your money to artists when you can!

I havenāt had the time or the headspace to paint in quite some time, but here are some of my student works / commissions that I am proud of! Particularly the first one, hoping to move in that direction as I create this summer. Been trying to understand the place that painting has in my life and its role as an emotionally expressive medium among an influx of hyperrealistic and AI images. In this landscape and my life, maybe abstraction is the best way to use the medium??

š“It stands for Voice of the Report of the Week. Thatās the guy from YouTube that reviews fast food in a suit. Iām not very interested in fast food but I find the individual behind the reviews interesting, relatable, and refreshing. So this is his podcast. The latest episode is over 4 hours long and consists of him talking to himself about various topics. Iāve become inspired by it and now I do my own talk-to-yourself style podcasts behind a paywall for my Fan Club.

šI have a cat who is excellent. So excellent someone would grab him from the street if they saw him. Or he would get run over because he is too relaxed around hazards. I can not let him outside in Los Angeles. I was able to get a kind of chicken coop on Amazon that has been converted for cat use for only $200. Itās large enough for me to stand up in. Thereās no way for a cat to get into it on its own but I recommend getting a piece of wood from Home Depot cut to the width of your window, and the height of a cat door. Then you can put a cat door where your window is, like an air conditioner would go, and put the catio on the other side. Now put the litter box in the catio, and you have an enviable cat situation that makes dogs suddenly seem completely unreasonable.
