Diety-V better known as Die TV!

I know, I know, I’ve been slackin!  The studio is starting to find it’s footing and hopefully I will follow suit here soon.  Till then, you guys are gonna hafta bare with me;)


“Blinded by the projection of a false reality, the audience soon followed suit. It wasn’t until it was too late that they realized that their attempt to get ahead has indirectly put them behind.”

Knocked this bad boy out about a year ago.  Really enjoyed the concept.  Probably took me about 15 hours or so.

G40 Summit!!

Bout to start painting a HUGE wall (at least huge for me;) for the G40 Summit within the week.  If you’re in the area, stop by and say what’s up!  I think I’m gonna be painting somewhere around Marshall and Brook, caddy corner to Gallery 5.  Wish me luck!!

I knocked this 14′X14′ wall out at Art Basel 2010.  The wall I’m doin this year is probably gonna be twice as big.

Demon Killer

Finally finished up a long overdue painting.

Started this piece about a year ago, but due to the overwhelming amount of stuff I had on my plate at the time I couldn’t find time to finish it.  Although I’m sure this painting is probably going to stimulate some negative thoughts, my intentions in creating this painting was not to glorify something that is obviously horrible, but to bring to light something that seems to be plaguing the world.  Prior to experiencing depression for myself, it was difficult for me to understand why anyone would choose to take their own life.  It wasn’t until I experienced depression for the first time a couple years back that I could fully understand the thought process behind why it was that anyone would choose this path.  Depression is something I hope to never have to confront again, however I’m glad I had the opportunity to experience it once.  It has made me more sympathetic of people who are going through it as well as made me appreciate the happiness that I once took for granted.

Ratrace 2.0

Although I haven’t been posting much lately, I’m still tattooing:)  I’ve got almost 30 tattoos sitting on the back burner waiting to hit the internet, I’ve just got to get them all cleaned up.  I’ll post some from time to time so you guys don’t forget about me.  One of the pieces I’ve finished up recently that I was really proud of was Rat Race 2.0.  For those of you who have been following my work for awhile you may recognize the piece at the bottom.  I initially dropped that piece off in Vegas a couple years back and the owner decided he wanted to add to it.
