The Mayans Were Wrong
2013 has arrived and things are a brewin’. An entirely new body of work has been coming together and will be shown at multiple locations throughout the year. Additionally, a plan has been formulated to get Gated Community into print and distribute it to the world. Many more details on these things will be forthcoming soon. Namaste.
Fifteen Years of Youngblood Gallery
One of the first galleries I ever got really hyped on… fifteen years in!
Forgotten Corners at Pibby’s
New paintings by Mickael Broth and photographs by Greg Bethmann. A little late on this for the opening… but the work is up all month.

Change Is In the Wind
It’s 2012 and the year is looking good. I’ve got a lot of shows coming up around the country (San Diego, Portland, DC, Philadelphia, and Richmond) before June so I’ll be busy! I’ve been cranking out a ton of work and most of it has been in a very different vein than the work I put in over the past few years. I’ll be adding some of that soon. For now I added a whole lot of work from 2011 (including most of my transitional pieces) and some details of... Read The Rest →
