Deadly Towers
Light and Sound
These are some new paintings I made based on the architecture of an old NES game. They’re showing at Upper Playground this month in Portland in a group show called “Seven” featuring seven local artists.
THE BEHEMOTH GORE VIDAL
Cowboyz 'n' Poodles
Outwits his bumbling interviewer, cryptically and accurately cuts McCain off at the knees, mocks the Times in his first sentence, and pithily aligns his populist self as such: Do you read a lot of contemporary fiction these days? Like everyone else, no, I don’t. MENSCH CITY!
Shore Bound
The Guns In My Life
I have received confirmation that my sons are on the Eastern Seaboard. They were flying down the Garden State Parkway when I spoke to them. This is what they looked like before they left, running around like mad men. Come home soon, Boys. I miss you already!
End of Days

The Guns In My Life
