From my shop in Los Angeles to its new home in Las Vegas.

This Virgin Mary security door is officially protecting and welcoming its new home.

There's nothing better than seeing a project finally installed and doing exactly what it was built to do.

Each door is fabricated one at a time—no two are exactly alike.

Custom Virgin Mary Security Door
$2,500 – Metal fabrication only.
Powder coating, shipping, and installation not included.

If you've been thinking about adding one to your home, I'm currently accepting new commissions.

📍 Made in Los Angeles

I’ve been designing a new custom piece—an LA-inspired security door—and I’m ready to build it for the right client.

This isn’t just a render. This is something I can fabricate, install, and bring to life.

I’ve been pushing out concepts and seeing what resonates—and this one feels right.

If you’ve been following along, you already know: I can build what I design.

This custom piece is priced at $2,500, reflecting the craftsmanship, materials, and the time it takes to create something one-of-a-kind.

I’m looking for someone who wants to be part of the process— not just buying a door, but helping bring a concept into the real world.

DM me if you’re ready to make it happen.

HIGH SOCK CORTEZ Ceramic Flower Vase

Concept rendering — currently in development.

Working on developing a new series of functional objects based on the Nike Cortez.

A self-standing shoe and high sock that holds flowers.

Working with my buddy @gilescarson to develop the 3D model and 3D print the first version. From there, I’ll use the printed form to start developing molds and experimenting with slip casting in ceramic.

To all my ceramic homies and anyone experienced with slip casting — I’m new to this process and would love some advice. If you have experience with mold making, casting, or ceramics and want to share some knowledge, please reach out. I have questions!

The goal is to develop a few pieces around this concept and eventually produce a small ceramic run.

If you’re interested in reserving one, send me a DM. I’ll keep sharing the process as these move from renderings → 3D models → physical objects → ceramic.

🍕 IT'S PIZZA TIME!

Stopped by 3031 N. Broadway in Lincoln Heights to check out a new pizza stand and catch up with some old friends, Albert and Nolan.

These guys are Lincoln Heights locals, putting in the work to build their own little pizza business, one pie at a time.

The pizza is delicious, and that firebrick oven cooks them up fast! But I have to say, that Peugeot three-wheeler with the pizza oven in the back is a beautiful little setup. Such a cool concept!

Always good to see familiar faces creating something of their own right here in the neighborhood.

Support your local businesses! Stop by, grab a pizza, and show these guys some love.

Introducing CHUZMA™.

Inspired by chusma, a word often used to describe the rowdy, the everyday people, and those who don't always fit into polite society.

CHUZMA is my interpretation of that spirit, expressed through photography, cultural imagery, personal observations, and imagination.

I'll be producing a series of limited-run graphic T-shirts, turning familiar scenes and moments into wearable art.

Looking forward to sharing these with all of you.

LOW RIDE THE LAKE — A PUBLIC ART PROJECT 🛶

Still working on bringing this one to life!

The idea is to transform a traditional paddle boat into a floating lowrider, celebrating L.A. car culture, public art, and community.

I'm currently reaching out to @wheelfunrentalsofficial about a potential partnership and paddle boat donation. If that doesn't work out, community fundraising may be the next step.

I'd love to explore bringing this concept to Lincoln Park with @plazadelaraza, and potentially to MacArthur Park. I'd also love to connect with Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martínez and @cd13losangeles to explore community support for the project.

Echo Park Lake was the original inspiration, but why stop there?

Still in the early stages, but determined to make it happen. Looking forward to meeting new artists, collaborators, and friends along the way.

Know someone who could help? Let's connect!

Made in L.A., for L.A.

Really excited to drop off the LA Bench at @indigo_cow here in Echo Park!

I think it looks right at home beneath this beautiful Echo Park mural. Love seeing my work find its place in the neighborhood.

If you haven't checked them out yet, stop by and try some amazing Hokkaido milk soft serve! 🍦

A little public art, a place to sit, and something sweet.

Made in LA, for LA.

This is a rendering, and what I'd be saying if this were real! But nonetheless, I think this would be a great home for the LA Bench. Just putting the idea out into the universe.

THE WORLD IS YOURS 🌎💙

Took the LA Bench out for a little stroll today. Figured we'd stop by Dodger Stadium.

What started as an idea in my workshop has turned into a piece of Los Angeles that I now physically carry around the city.

Built in LA. Inspired by LA. Made for LA.

Now the real question is, how do we get one of these inside Dodger Stadium?

What do you think, @dodgers? 👀⚾️
