New sculpture series in process This time of aesthetic stagnation has awakened a force within me. I believe we must champion a more vital way of being. My new series grabs back at the great dynamic movements of the past, like Art Deco, Futurism and Vorticism, drawing inspiration

Very pleased to say that my new book, Anonymously Yours: The Essays, 2020-2024, is now available on Amazon. This book is just shy of 400 pages of essays on everything from testosterone decline to climate migration via ancient Greek agonism and the novels of Michel Houellebecq.

Another MAN OF ART episode of Content Minded has dropped, this time on Paul Cezanne, his life, works, politics and true reactionary artistic character. I read numerous essays on his art, the landscape, and posthumanism. ENJOY. youtu.be/CAUYY442sDU

Sand blasting Prometheus revealing the beautiful golden bronze underneath. Very satisfying. This is what happens when Iโ€™m not 100% convinced of a patina. It is always good to test many different patinations before settling on the ones that work.

The current regime not only in the US but Western order at large must see considerable change if we are to sustain a pioneer spirit. Every elite with vision and vigour has now come to terms with this and must act accordingly.

The work of Frederic Leighton(1830โ€“1896) who understood how to create figurative sculpture imbued with force, struggle and meaning. Notice there is not one hint of kitsch. Leighton had the vision and spirit to properly handle such matters. You can have technical ability but

Tomorrow I will be travelling to Poland for the opening of my new exhibition "Ruin to Redemption" at the Museum of the Warsaw Archdiocese. This is a huge milestone for me, as it is my major show since I dedicated myself to my art career three years ago. The road to this point

To that point actually quite a long time ago I did a quick schematic sketch for a sculpture idea of a figure casting a missile/rocket of some sort. Never really went anywhere past the first doodle but yes it has been on my mind over the years.
