I'll have a few pieces in an upcoming LGBTQ art show at the Riverside Arts Center in Ypsilanti. The show aims to celebrate the contributions of LGBTQ artists and the impact of their work on the community. The opening on Friday June 1st coincides with Ypsi Pride, so head downtown and do all the things! Find more info on the opening and special events during the month of June on the RAC website.

Mattel x G1988: The Joys of Toys
I'm really excited to announce that I will have a piece hanging in this wonderful group exhibit curated by Cuddly Rigor Mortis. The Joys of Toys at Gallery 1988 West celebrates those classic Mattel toys that had such an impact on so many kids.
I would spend countless hours coming up with perilous scenarios for my Masters of the Universe action figures to star in. So, for this show it was only fitting that my piece center around He-Man and his amazing furry red battle briefs. I don't know what was under those things, but it always seemed a strange choice of garment for a warrior known to engage in swordplay. Maybe he just thought his rippling thighs looked good in them?
