I have relocated countries and will be here for the foreseeable future. Moving caused the loss of a ton of my creative tools, so I am in the process of rebuilding my art supplies. I have managed to procure a typewriter as of last week, so new typewriter work is on the horizon.

My international move has been eye opening and has caused a good amount of assessment on things that are important and things that come and go has time passes. I have had hard lessons in letting go, and a hefty dose of insight regarding necessity and excess. As the cicada sheds its shell, sometimes we need to leave behind the things that no longer actively serve us to move on to the next stages of our adventures.

I am very happy in my new location and have set to work repairing an old fence in my backyard. I have dirtied my hands in the soil, wriggled with the slow worms, and sang with the blackbirds in the dead of night. I am also slowly learning to make some decent sounds out of my newly acquired guzheng, which is an instrument I have wanted for nearly a decade.

The plan going forward is to be more regular with the updates on this website as well as posting to this featured blog. I hope to make this more of a central hub going forward, as it is getting more difficult to maintain the plethora of social media accounts I find myself in possession of. There will likely be music coming out sometime later this year, as well as new visual art projects to look forward to. I have also spent a good amount of time in my absence working on a new novel, which I hope to share more information about when the time is appropriate.

Finally, I hope this finds you well and I thank you for your continued support. Stay groovy.

This is to be my first entry into an ongoing update and insight to my artistic endeavors. It is the end of the year 2023 and my current goal is to complete my SoloType series before the year’s end. I am currently finishing the final pieces in the 100 piece set. The last piece will be airdropped to all the collectors that hold a SoloType piece at the beginning of next year (Jan 1, 2024). If you are interested, there is still time to grab a piece of the collection. I have a few artworks available on the primary market.

Here is a link if you are interested.

SoloType has been an ongoing project that has taken about a year and a quarter to complete. Each of the pieces are entirely physical and are archived and in my possession. I scan the original in at 1200 dpi to ensure that everything from the texture of the paper, the scratches of the pen, and the indentions from the typewriter are all visible and apparent in the piece. I do not resize after this, so the end result is large, high-resolution, and wonderfully suited for printing.

Each piece is abstract but oftentimes conceptual. This leads to certain archetypes, motifs, and vague inklings to arise from the overall image. Explorations included in the SoloType series include concepts such as dark and light, absence versus presence, motion and fixedness, being and nothingness. Reoccurring concepts explored throughout the series, and revisited time and again in my artistic endeavors, are the ideas of ‘wu wei’ and ‘tranquilo’.

While the end of the year will mark the end of the SoloType series, this will not be the end of my artistic endeavors (as if I could stop creating things if I tried!). I am currently working on new musical projects, as well as other visual art explorations. The end of one thing is the beginning of other things!

Do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about my work. Until next we meet again, enjoy your explorations!
