Melon shifted to the Central Park Boathouse, they place they were married. I met with the gang on a sunny Saturday, and we walked the entire perimeter of the Boat House, taking photographs... discussing angles, size and technique.

Video Shoot @Borbay’s Studio | Mellow Drama Collaboration, General Action | (2)

On the slate - Jamie Frevele's Mellow Drama. Starring both Jamie and hockey/acting maverick Nick Mahoney, Mellow Drama involved no less than thirty seven takes, twelve tall-boy PBR's and one nearly severed finger.

Painting Process Nipple Slip Soup Spill New York Post Painting Process | (5)
After the incredible Urbania ride, words cannot describe how much I enjoyed getting back to painting. I began painting this prior to my collage painting portrait, but it sat idle, unfinished.
