@costajoaquin from @lefixtattoomagic interpreted my scorpion design (painted earlier this week) as a takeaway from this amazing trip to Denmark. My second piece from this shop of incredible artists. Thanks to @tattoosbyras for always making Copenhagen feel like home. These past weeks have been filled with beauty, inspiration, chaos, and weirdness, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Here's a big one folx. Just wrapped up work on a piece in #georgetown in partnership with @electriccelloseattle . The space is still having the seating area built out but here's a peek at the 40 foot #mural. It was a long, hot weekend of painting, but I'm really stoked on how it's turned out. I hope when you're boppin around the community you'll take a seat and take a look at these ants.

Special thanks to the folx at Electric Cello who made me some incredible food and kept the ice and smiles flowing. Huge thanks to @brittporter for assisting in production on the piece to make it possible. Thanks to @allcitycoffee for coming to say hey (and for the pastries 💪). Thanks to @wittman_estes for the project. And always, thanks to the community for stopping by and sharing stories and their lives while they see me working on pieces like this.

The paint must not have been fully dry before it got tagged. Thanks guys, looks much better now. I try not to be too down on tagging, everyone wants to be heard in their own way. But seriously, Roe got overturned yesterday and I busted to get this piece designed and painted. I started at 9am and finished at 11:30pm. This shit ain't easy. I didn't even get a daylight photo of it to capture the moment. While the world burns, why ya gotta throw gasoline on it?

Today, the #supremecourt overturned #roevwade enabling states to ban #abortion and set women's healthcare back decades, as well as placing us well behind other nations when it comes to freedom of choice and women's rights. The stats are no longer important. The appeals to logic are no longer important.

I don't typically talk about the origins of design

I don't typically talk about the origins of designs but I was thinking a lot of this one in lieu of recent events. I have a little unofficial list of "will not use" imagery, which for a while included guns. But after a school shooting several years ago, I made this design to reconcile my feelings. Here's the thing tho, I no longer remember which one. That's where we're at now. A school shooting is no longer a significant enough milestone in our history to form a sense of scale around. As years, months, and sometimes even weeks or days go by, you have to ask "which one"? The ape in this design is a juvenile orangutan, barely able to hold the AR-15 rifle used in so many tragedies in this country. I'll let you all interpret the rest.

Those who know me know that I am passionate about

Those who know me know that I am passionate about keeping art in the community. I've been climbing at @seattleboulderingproject for over ten years and it's been a huge part of my personal community, giving me a place to make friends, take control of my health, and learn new skills. I'm super honored to be able to display 9 paintings on the walls here for the next month or so. If you're a member at the gym come stop by the poplar location and take a look.

Last year, on Jan 6, we all saw the crazy effects of a very real problem facing our country. I painted this mural the week after the Capitol Insurrection. One year later, the mural still stands. Some anniversaries are a little bittersweet.

About ten years ago I was passing thru the Houston

About ten years ago I was passing thru the Houston airport and there were posters of a young child from some ambiguous Eastern country. She had big eyes, simple clothes, and was alone. The poster's headline copy read "she's not as innocent as she looks, report suspicious behavior". I've never forgotten that poster and I'm sure the thousands of families traveling thru this point of entry haven't either.

A new mural on the now vacant @thecomebackseatown . Sorry to see you all go. With each icon lost on the Hill, it feels a little less like home, but change is something we all need to face head on. Good luck in your new community.

Congratulations @nasa on your @nasawebb jwst launch.

PSA: just because it's a holiday doesn't mean you all get a free pass to treat everyone like garbage. This year has been rough, but this month has been monstrous. Be kinder y'all.

This poor wall has seen numerous great pieces on it over the past year, but it all got buffed recently, so thought I'd throw my voice up on there. This tryptic on the corner of Pine and Broadway is a couple of moods.

I've been eyeing this little ramp for some time at the skate park. Something about the geometry was calling out to me, so I put this chill ass bear on it. I love seeing parks get used to their fullest by a community, and tho my skating days are well behind me, I really admire seeing this park full of skaters every day, of all skills, being 🤙
