Roller Girl in Black and Gold

The second in my newfound series rollerskating in parking lots with Sawyer.

Zombie Behind the Scenes

2009 was the early days of my video efforts capturing my body paintings. I put more precedence towards the photography back then. That changed as soon a higher quality video capture became a thing. Glad I shot what I could though back then. Featuring Ela...

Zombie Painting

Flashback to 2009 when I body painted my first zombie on Ela Darling. I particularly enjoy the zombie glamour shots.

Skeletons in my Closet

Classic collab from 2019 featuring Shadia and Sawyer 

This was in preparation of my last solo show which was a Huge Halloween party.

Behind the Scenes with Steph

Here's some BTS footage with Steph during the Goddess of La Ferla painting process.

The Goddess of La Ferla manor

I took Steph to Dominic LaFerla's Home in Torrance California. I've been wanting to photograph her there for over a year now.

Sawyer doin her thing!

Rollergirl in Red and White

Decided to explore more of my brush script work using red and white. And then thought it'd be cool to take Sawyer to the mall parking lot with her roller skates. We're prob going to do a series of skating in parking lots now, we had so much fun.

Some more prep work with Sawyer.

Sawyer in Lavender

One of my favorite colors to use on Sawyer is this metallic lavender. It goes on very smooth and covers her tattoos very nicely. I've used it numerous times on her.

Here's some footage with Sawyer at the beach.

Sun Bathing at the Beach

Sawyer and I decided to have fun at the beach. I covered up her tattoos and threw on a painted one piece bathing suit. We went back and forth trying to decide whether or not to add a pattern to the bathing suit but opted for this basic baby blue....

Celebrating Julia

Saturday November 2, 2019, Julia Nicoletti, the model featured here passed away. Ever since then I've been trying to produce the results of our experience from the day we did this photoshoot.

I was asked to do a 3D volumetric capture of this body painting for AR/VR purposes.

I'm very proud to share with the encour...

Adding highlights to the shapes on Sawyer.

Sawyer Gem

My most recent collab with Sawyer. Explored this crystal style a little bit more.

Behind the Scenes with Steph

I carried this 30-40 pound 360 degree photo booth stand about 3/4 mile to the top of this canyon. Pretty brutal, but worth it. Here's a little behind the scenes  with my go pro and Steph. Planning a series of 360 NFTs.

On Top of the World

Explored one of my favorite spots in SoCal with Steph. It's amazing how there are places here with absolute solitude considering how overpopulated it is. 

Battle Angel BTS

Behind the Scenes with Sawyer.

Sawyer Battle Angel

Trying a new thing combining my body paintings with AI generated backgrounds. Thought it made sense to replicate an Alita Battle Angel theme on Sawyer, because honestly they look very similar.
