June is going to be a slightly more of a quiet month than May , which allows me a little time to regroup and think about some new work and do a little chillaxin and hangout with family and friends.  I would like to extend a big thank you to Upper Playground/Sacramento, AutoBody Fine Art, my wife Laura and all of the people who have come out to support the shows and have given me encouragement, y’all made May a great month.

This show was amazing, Gale Hart and company really out did last years performance next to Skinner’s show probably one of the better shows in Sacramento this year. The whole show was a destination, the photos here are just a taste of what went on. For even more photos hit the gallery button below.
