Gears, hearts and babies… I’ll explain this if you really want me to, it is simply elaborate. Think of the number 9, what it means to a pregnant woman, the transition from embryo to human, the male take on accepting the fact you are going to be a dad and the overall “oh shit” of life in general. Jay surprised his lady Mags with this via me hanging it in their anniversary suite at the Hilton not long ago. It was well received.

Holy shit I haven’t blogged forever! Anyway, to all my loyal fans (Richie)… I’ll try and stay on it. Anyway, here are some videos I made recently for work… been gettin that movie guy shit kickin’.

Quick 30 sec surf commercial currently on FuelTV

Quick spot welcoming Phil Jacques to the Snow Team

Pre-show at Skinner and Alex Pardee’s “The Butcher Kings,” at Gallery 1988 Melrose in Los Angeles. If you get a chance go check this show out… it’s twisted just right, but sorry… ET is mine so run like hell and buy one of the other pieces. More info here.

I’ve hoarded my brain dumps for way too long so I’ve decided to reach out and see if I can get into some galleries and paint shit for shows that are being put together. I’ve hid from the “art scene” in SD long enough, I’d love to become a part of it. Shamon. facebook.com/unrefinedartists is my usual dumping ground via instagram… follow that.

I’ve once again not blogged anything I’ve been up to so here is a quick update, maybe a photo might find its way in… probably not. Last couple weeks have been all about shooting everything for Spy’s sunglass and mx catalogs… can’t post photos. This week started off with more mx catalog photos then shooting Ken Block practicing and dialing in his new “hybrid” for X-Games over in a back lot at Fontana Speedway. Then back to the office to upload it all ending the day with a quick shoot for our Vice ad. Thursday is all about the Optical shoot then it’s back to LA to shoot some FMX and some more Block shit. Loving it all. Wishing I could get more into the graphite drawing I’m attempting to make time for on top of finalizing some paintings that have been sitting on the sidelines for a couple months.

I did however get the chance this weekend to spend some time with our soon to be Shell Beach residents Ian and Gisele for her birthday and their see you later brunch. That was rad, got in a quick run through of the Art In The Streets exhibition at MOCA… forgot to bring my good camera but Megan snagged this shot of me praying with the amazing mind of Banksy via my iPhone. I’ll end it with that.
