The life story of Leonora Carrington is so fascinating that I am dumbfounded as to why it hasn’t been made into a film or multi-episode limited series. As a film it screams “Oscar bait” and as a limited series it would fit perfectly into the current trend of glamorous, yet provocatively emotional prestige television. That […]
Read more "“WandaVision” & Leonora Carrington"As someone who used to work in a scenic and fabrication shop, I was intrigued by a new show on Disney+ titled “Prop Culture.” The premise centers around a man who collects movie props and hunts down props that may be missing or tucked away in odd locations. When I realized that one of the […]

Read more "Feline Friends"I am honored to have been asked to contribute to the 3rd Annual Wine Box Art Show benefiting the Zebra Coalition of Orlando, FL.

Read more "Frida Kahlo in “Coco”"The original Muppet Babies animated show debuted in September of 1984.

In that film, Miss Piggy daydreams about what it would have been like if they had all known each other as […]
Read more "Baby Animal"The 1980’s are back and in a BIG way! Shows like “Stranger Things” and “G.L.O.W.” are pure 80’s and even film remakes, like “It,” shift the story’s time period from the 1960’s to the 1980’s. The love for the 80’s is everywhere – especially in design – if you take the time to look for […]
