Lab
The unfinished room.
Most of what I work on starts here — as a sketch, a question, or a hunch I can't shake. Nothing here is polished. If something pulls on you, that's an invitation.
Visual practice
The art studio lives here →
Colored pencil, oil, acrylic, and Procreate. Selected pieces — plus an open door for commissions.
Open question
A non-extractive newsletter platform
Substack is a landlord. What does a writer-owned, reader-owned distribution layer look like that doesn't require its own VC round to exist?
Sketch
Mutual-aid scheduling for small art centers
A lightweight tool for the people who teach, clean, host, and lock up — so the labor is visible and shareable.
Experimenting
Inheritance interviews
Recorded conversations with elders about what they were asked to give up to be 'American.' Long-form, no edits, public archive.
Looking for collaborators
Quiet exit playbook
A workbook for owner-operators who want to retire without selling out — co-op conversions, employee buyouts, generational handoffs.
Open question
Dog as collaborator
Ten years with Caesar has changed how I think about presence, pace, and what a workday is for. There is a book in here somewhere.
