This a very special day for the manifestation of dreams. Exactly a year and five days ago MK Barr and my life changed dramatically.

Back HOME to New Mexico to film for Painted in the Desert-A Travel Essay

I have not been home to the southwest in six months. New Mexico is one of the most enchanting places I have ever been; I fell in love with the land three years ago, and have not been gone for more than a month since that time. I tend to start sobbing and shaking when …

Horses completely changed my life. They are one of the great mysteries and miracles of my pathway into my sovereignty, and last night I was able to revisit that early passion I felt for them.

Trespassing, Holy Dirt and Baby Jesus’ Shoes

I love to trespass. I have so few vices left that my punk rock soul needs something disobedient.  “You don’t drink, don’t smoke...what do you do?” {Had to get a little Adam Ant up in here}. I am actually a fairly modest person in everyday life, despite the wild and intense work I create. I …

Tribal epiphanies in graffiti tunnels

So back to the story of how The Oracle of Initiation divination deck was created...in 2008 I had  made the biggest geographic move of my life {other than a youthful jaunt in Italy} to New Mexico.

How Hip Hop, Horses Dances and The Hopi inspired The Oracle of Initiation deck
