Music fuels me to bring digital visions to life with live paint on stage, then turn them into wearable art and collectible memorabilia.

Live painting and concert poster work sit at the center of everything I do. I like building worlds that feel tied to music—psychedelic, gritty, a little surreal, but grounded in real moments. There’s something about creating in real time, in front of a crowd, that forces honesty into the work. From there, I translate those pieces into prints, apparel, and collectibles so people can take a piece of that moment home.
Where do you find inspiration?Music is the spark, always. But it’s not just the sound—it’s the feeling of being in a place when it hits right. Red Rocks at sunset, a crowd locked into a groove, the weight of memory tied to a song. I also pull from real life—struggle, faith, second chances, the long road it takes to rebuild. That tension between chaos and purpose tends to show up in everything I make.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d invest it straight back into the work. Build out a stronger production pipeline for prints, apparel, and collectibles. Upgrade equipment for live painting and content capture so the process can reach more people. Fund a small run of higher-end pieces and take them on the road—festivals, shows, wherever the audience is. The goal isn’t just to make more art, it’s to build something sustainable that supports my family and creates opportunities for other artists down the line.
