Hola. I haven't done an update in awhile, I've been busy, so to make up for it...heres a post! 

I actually have a piece that is going to be in Cheer's; ISM's 10 year anniversary show which opens on July 7, 2012 in downtown Santa Ana at Fullerton's Grand Central. I actually can't wait to see the show because ISM has had some really good artist over the years. 

Also, i will have a print hanging at the OC Fair gallery which  is open July 13-Aug 12 so go see it while you munch on deep-fried Oreos!

This past weekend I attended a art seminar by Marshall Vandruff which was super informative and inspiring. I am going to two more of his seminars this weekend so check them out if you are in southern CA and are pursuing a creative lifestyle.
