GUS: Game Boy, 2024, Acrylic on Panel, 11’’ X 14’’, In a Private Collection.

In this piece I wanted to immerse the viewer in the themes of joy, power, and grounding in the present moment that run throughout my GUS work. I love the meditative element of video games, how they force you to be in the now, how their immediacy drowns out whatever else is going on and to win, you need to be present. I love how video games can make people feel powerful, make people connect, and make people feel joy. This piece celebrates the inclusivity of gaming, a platform where everyone, regardless of physical prowess, can shine.

l'm excited to present a new GUS commission: "GUS: Float", 2024, Watercolor and Pencil on Paper, 11" X 8.5", In a Private Collection.

In my GUS series, I touch on moments of weightlessness and the feeling of being in a bigger body in the moment of floating. I was excited when @mikorux came to me wanting a GUS piece in space, having seen my piece "GUS: Weightless" but done in the blues like my "Blue Drawing" series. It was very fun to have a collector resonate with two elements I had been exploring and give me the opportunity to combine the two.

If you are interested in a GUS work of your own, DM me. I love this series and love creating more works like this. 💖✨⭐️🥰🖼️🖌️🎨

So happy to present this GUS commission, “Gus: Jack be Nimble …” 2025, Acrylic on Panel, 11” X 14”. In a Private Collection.

I created this painting for art collector and curator @emmanuel_tonalmeh of the @ampliagaleria Gallery in Mexico City. I was excited for the chance to explore more of big bodies in motion, especially in a jumping pose, and playing around with contrasts of cool and warm light.

If you are interested in a GUS work of your own, DM me about commissions or go to the link in my profile to view my website store to see what pieces are still available.
