Next Friday I am part of  two group shows that are opening. One is being curated by my good friend Josh Rodenberg at Commonwealth in Portland Oregon. The show is titled “With Much Haste” and features my work alongside my partner in Born Ugly, James “Barf” Callahan, and the indisputable Rob Lee.

The other show is also curated by a good friend, Ed Trask. That show will be at Slingluff Gallery in Philadephia PA. We’ll be there! Come say hey. It’s called “Northward” since all of us rednecks in the show are from the South.

I’ll be painting a mural in the upcoming RVA Street Art Festival from April 12-15 in Richmond Virginia. The roster of artists involved in this is really exciting and includes Richard Coleman, Pose, Vizie, El Kamino, Jeff Soto, Ryan McGuiness, Ed Trask, Chris Milk, Hense, and a bunch more artists too.

Then I’ll be working in the Works In Progress Gallery at the Artisphere in Arlington Virginia. This will be a show relating to the process of writing my book, Gated Community. I will be in the gallery for four days to work on the book, make drawings, and talk to the public about graffiti and jail.
