Just back from an unforgettable week in Berlin, where I immersed myself in the city’s rich history, vibrant street art, and sprawling contemporary art scene. Supported by the Great Meadows Artist Professional Development Program, I explored everything from underground galleries in Kreuzberg to museum giants like Hamburger Bahnhof and the Neue Nationalgalerie. The experience left me inspired, conflicted, and more curious than ever about the state of contemporary art. This blog chronicles the highs, the surprises, the blisters, and the moments of unexpected connection that made this trip one I won’t forget.

On this Saturday evening, I find myself deeply engaged in the creative process at my studio, working on a new batch of my Guerrilla Block Series. The production process is multifaceted, involving digital design, printing, wheat pasting collage, intricate detailing, and ultimately varnishing. For those interested in the origins of this series… I also talk about the difficulties of painting over older paintings from storage, a look into my home studio, and lastly I share a new favorite song and a lovely quote…
