What is your favorite type of art to create?

I’ve been into low brow pop surrealism acrylic paintings for a while. It’s my favorite medium and I feel it lends itself to the broad subject matter of that art movement! Using art to push the boundaries in the visuals of pop culture!

Where do you find inspiration?

The punk rock lifestyle and music fuels my passion for distorting the status quo and making it a raunchy and punk version of itself! Rat fink was a prime example of inspiration for taking something like the famous mouse and turning him into a toxic avenger punk rock rat the flips the bird and rides tattoos!

What would you do with $25,000?

I would invest the $25000 into a new tattoo shop and art gallery! I need to bring some Los Angeles vibes to Salt Lake City Utah and really shake things us and get a punk rock scene really moving even more so than it already is!!!! The community would hopefully be affected in a great way having a hip new punk rock art gallery in town, run by a maverick artist like myself! A nice big tattoo shop and art gallery would be a dream come true!!!
