I am seeing “Avengers: Endgame” later this evening so it seems appropriate to post this painting inspired by the recent film, “Captain Marvel.” “Captain Marvel” is easily one of my top 5 MCU films for more reasons than I can list in a blog post. Beyond its killer 90’s soundtrack and pop culture references (including […]
Read more "Captain Marvel"If you are in the Central Florida area or passing through in the next few weeks, I highly recommend visiting the Winifred Johnson Clive exhibit at the Orlando Museum of Art. This exhibition really caught me by surprise! I was not aware of this artist before seeing the show, but I was truly taken with […]

I don’t even know how to process such a thing. I am grateful no lives were lost. I am reading multiple reports of the artwork that was saved. The images of Parisians kneeling before the burning […]
Read more "Notre Dame"This is the second piece in my tribute series dedicated to artist Yayoi Kusama. The painting on the left is inspired by the installation on the right titled, Love is Calling. I experienced Love is Calling twice while it was on view at the Tampa Museum of Art this past winter and I feel that I […]
Read more "Kusama Tribute (Love is Calling)"While in Chicago last month, I visited the Museum of Broadcast Communications. The ticket counter was at the foot of a flight of stairs and at the top of those stairs was an eye-catching sculpture. At first glance, I thought it was a piece by Name June Paik, but it was actually a piece by […]
Read more "“Media Tower”"A few weeks ago, I visited the Orlando Museum of Art to view the exhibit Louis Dewis: A Belgian Post-Impressionist. I had heard very positive things from those who had already seen the show and I thoroughly enjoyed the exhibition. It is an incredibly well-curated show including artifacts from the artist’s life to compliment his […]
Read more "Louis Dewis: A Belgian Post-Impressionist"The Geek Out! Art Show opened last week at Dandelion Community Cafe in Orlando, FL and I am pleased to share that I have a few pieces in the show. In an attempt to push myself creatively, I have been busy painting all new artwork for 2019’s art shows and events. Of course, that means […]
Read more "“Spider-man: Into the Spider-verse”"Last night I attended the opening of the Geek Out! Art Show at Dandelion Community Cafe in Orlando, FL. One of the things I love about Orlando’s art community is the prevalence of nontraditional gallery spaces and, more specifically, Dandelion Community Cafe. Not only do they host themed art shows all year long featuring local […]
Read more "Geek Out! Art Show"Yesterday I took part in another edition of the Rediscovering the Masters series at Tildenville Marketplace in Winter Garden, FL. This month’s theme was “Monet in March” and it was a perfect spring day for an exploration of Impressionism. We kicked things off with a brief discussion of how Impressionism changed the art world forever […]
Read more "Monet in March"While in Chicago a couple weeks ago, I visited the Museum of Science and Industry. It was a spectacular place that could not be experienced in a single day – repeat visits are definitely encouraged and required if you want to experience everything. Multiple floors of science-based and technology-infused exhibitions (their website claims 400,000 square […]
