Preview of Deven

Here is a sneak peek of today’s body painting. What do you think of it? This is Deven‘s first time modeling, but by the time the session was complete, I caught him smiling 🙂 


Thank you for your support!

You're so cheeky!

Last night I had Seth Powers, Eddie Broadway, and Kris Onyx Inez in the studio last night! Seth assisted with painting and building props, as well as behind the scenes photos. Here is a picture he captured which doesn't spoil too much, since it's meant to be seen from the front. ;)

More soon!

Recovering from the Superbowl Plague

Or whatever has been floating around. I did a stressful Sports related event, which shut down my immune system. It's a long, negative story, and I'd rather share some positive news!

But...I couldn't even keep my eyes open on Saturday. Luckily feeling a bit better each day since. Crafted some new stuff today. Please look forward to new artwork (later) on Valentine's Day.

Thanks for your support!! X_x

Fabulous February - Tannor Reed

I thought some new photos of artwork with Tannor Reed would be just the thing to get your weekend started! What do you think?

A nice portrait shot of him!

Tannor in his bedroom! A place he doesn't share with many people <3

George and the Dragon

Or in this case, George and David!

You may have seen George before (he did a live event with me), but this time he wanted to bring David for support. I suggested they get painted TOGETHER, and celebrate their relationship! 

What do you think? Prett...

Let's Get In Touch

How are you doing? What's new in your world? I've been working with some new faces in the studio, as well as a few returning favorites. The recent painting with Toby Amerson, shown here, was a lot of fun to create with the model. They really liked the blacked out art! What's your favorite part? 

Thank you for your support! I'm getting back into the swing of postin...

Dominick is Dropping In!

Hi folks! Did you know some Pateron Tiers allow you to sponsor other models to get painted? Randall redeemed his from last year to have his friend Dominick get painted (and eventually his entire friend group)!

Right now though? We're talking about Dom!

The Birthday Exhibit

Last week I was asked, just days before my birthday, if I would like to exhibit at one of my favorite places. ChaChas! This really lifted my spirts, and contributed to my positive mood last week. 

I did my best to decorate and hang as much art as I could with basically a 48 hour notice. I over-estimated how easy it would be to pull off in the middle of everything ...

Happy Birthday To Me!

Today is my birthday... so the universe gifted me an art show on Friday! I've been hanging prints and quickly trying to turn around my collection into a showable state. I had originally planned on painting myself today, but there are too many moving parts.

In lieu of that, I'll be painting myself later this month to celebrate both ten years as a body artist (WOW!?) and surviving another year to tell the tale.

Which body painting is yo...

New! Colorful Chaos

I'm starting your year off with some colorful chaos featuring Ian M! I don't think I released any photos of this, only a sneak peek trailer previously. Which is a shame, because this is such a cool body painting! 

Ian requested something more reptilian in nature, but the overall consensus is that we wanted to lean into something dark.

2022 Recap - Part Two

Happy New Year, and welcome back to the Recap, Part Two. A lot happened in January, but this post will cover a few months of time.

Just want to say thank you for your support, before we begin, because without you I wouldn't be able to be a full time artist.

Now that the Tarot Deck is (mostly) shipped, I plan on focusing on my Patreon more. This community I've built is important to me, and I need to do a better job engaging in it. So thank you for stickin...

2022 Month by Month Recap - Part One

What a weird year, right? Much of it, none of us could predict, but there was some good to be found. Art was created, and I finally released my long awaited Tarot Deck. I travelled a lot, experienced loss, and managed to remain single!

90 percent of the Kickstarter has been fulfilled, and many of the pre-orders are on the way. I showed my Tarot Deck at a book store, and planted the seed at others. The next evolution will be the Digital Deck, which I plan on developing in January. ...

Thankful for you!

What a year! There were some highs: Two tours, releasing and shipping my Tarot Deck, publishing a Calendar, lots of events, and my Multiverse series. Plus I worked with some bigger names!

And some lows: Have you seen the world? :P Not to mention I've been having lots of communication issues with a family, and a grandmother who is going to pass soon.

*deep breath*

If the Universe is kind, I hope to make substantial progress on my second game. My art appeared this year on s...

Bookmans - Phoenix - Wednesday - 6pm

If you're in Arizona (or don't mind the flight), I'll be presenting The Magician's Tarot on Wednesday during the Tarot Study Group, hosted by Mizi Spiro!

Would love to meet you in person and thank you for supporting my Patreon!

What makes you happy?

For me, it's always been picking up a paint brush, colored pencil, or stylus, and building whatever my imagination dreams of.

When I create art with someone, using their body as a canvas, I try my best to orchestrate something that everyone is happy with. I usually use flattering colors and shading to bring out the best in everyone. Ultimately the art tries to compliment AND celebrate the body, while still getting the message across.  

Here is a photo of Tannor Reed smiling ...

The Return!

Of Matthew Jefferies! Excited to share more of this artwork recently completed on Sunday. Here is your first official peek. What do you think?

Thank you to Randall for lending me the wings, which were hand made in Ukraine! I added some extra color to them to make them pop.

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend

At least that’s what Marilyn Monroe sang. Here is Hannah and Hanna looking amazing during this two day event. If you look closely, you might see they swapped colors and body art!

Thank you to Molina’s Fine Jewelry for having me!

2023: A Gay Space Odyssey

Nothing more exciting than Gays in Space! Maya Rudolph used to do this skit on SNL where she would introduce a squad of Space Queers with this song that will never leave my head. Sure, it was filled with tropes (expected for it's time), but it's nostalgia baby!

Bioluminescence with Preston and Brandon

I did a photoshoot in Oregon, and the flowers returned! Here is a peek at Preston (first photo), Brandon (second photo), and back to Preston!

We arranged the flowers on each other, and did a cute  session. More soon?

Blinded by the lights
