all the houses are stable mates.

I have Victor the Cowboy-bot on the inside of my arm now, he looks great! Huge thank you to Thomas Kersnowsky, a very talented artist and I'm glad I work with him, I learn a lot!


Victor isn't just about being from my favorite video game (Fallout: New Vegas, if you are not privy), but also my favorite culture: the wanderlust of the cowboy. I think it may be why I like old western music, it's always about the wanderer, and I feel like I identify pretty strongly to it.. I've been working on a series of paintings to further explore that feeling of the lone traveler. Every painting is about the lone oasis in the middle of the night- the rest stop, gas station, or diner.
