Waiting for Izzy
I started this self portrait while waiting for my daughter, Isabella on the set of "Brothers & Sisters". She has a recurring guest starring role beginning Sunday, January 2nd @ 10:00 pm on ABC. She has a lot of fun and the cast and crew wonderful.

I finally carved out some time to participate in the Carcaturama Showdown 3000! weekly contest. I took a trip down memory lane with Agent Dale Cooper of Twin Peaks fame. It was an opportunity to to flex my muscles and try out some home made brushes. Over all it was a gas!!

ChimMaya Día de los Muertos on KABC News
Channel 7 KABC Eyewitness News reporter Alysha del Valle did this report on Día de los Muertos from ChimMaya Gallery in Los Angeles. The piece did a good job of capturing the spirit of the Day of the Dead and of representing ChimMaya and the artists in the show. The ol' Dead Beatnik ( AKA Benjamin Thomas) just happened to have some paintings in the Muertos 2010 show at the time. "Charlie's Angel" got some good coverage. Check it out.
