Midnight Garden: The Daydreams & Nightmares of…

Featuring the Art of Dan May, RiK Catlow and Todd Lawson
Foundation One Gallery,
Atlanta(Decatur), Georgia
Opening November 10th, 2007

Featuring my largest paintings to date and even a pair of landscapes to mix things up, Midnight Garden is an emotionally darker and more personal body of work for me then recent projects. Attacking topics such as sexuality, communication (or lack there of), loneliness, memories, dreams and paranoia, this collection is more about myself and those close and far from me and my own demons and memories. Whether work will continue in the vein or not is still unknown to me.


ART: Back Then! Collection

Back Then!

Double-artist bill
w/ Shaunna Peterson

Collection revolves in some way around growing up and my fascination with nostalgia. Whether they are directly based on something in my youth or more often around a way people used to think, then when I grew up, finding out how often those same things I liked, I liked more because of the history and nostalgia from them.

ART: Paranoid by Submission Collection

Paranoid by submission
The Staircase Cafe (cafe closing show)
Hamilton, Ontario
June 2005

As a call back to the cold war and world war era visual and written propaganda, today’s general public now finds itself in a state of heightened paranoia for all things government and business related as they are hammered daily by media outlets. Think, don’t speak; watch, don’t blink…society’s laziness and shallow view of life has forced us into a state of quiet, paranoid submission. We know we are lied to, we know we are herded like cattle; we see the slow disintegration of ourselves and everything we know, yet other than the odd protest or verbal outburst, we decide to sit back and watch.
