I will be curating my first big show ever at CoCA opening August 7 and running until October 10. As part of my show I have hand decorated over 200 postcards. Some are painted, some are collage. I have uploaded my favorites here https://bsky.app/profile/safetyluck.bsky.social
The Seattle Parks Department made a map of The Troll Knoll for their newsletter.
I redesigned the labels for this local wine.
Bumpershoot 50 was a re-imagining of the festival. As part of the arts installations I helped paint a cat circus. Marcos Everstijn designed and I painted.

Shroomdrop 2023 Since I made mushroom themed art this year I thought I would participate. Since 2019, people around the world have been hiding mushroom themed art in public spaces on June 10th. This year, I will do the same hiding mushroom emas near my mushroom lanterns.
For Earth Day we celebrated the installation of four new mushroom lanterns at The Fremont Troll Knoll. The lanterns were made in collaboration with Haiying Wu and myself. Leo Griffin was a key figure in getting this done, helping in all logistics and securing $10,000 in funds from The City of Seattle. Daniel Tadesse helped our team install the heavy mushrooms into the park. The mushroom lanterns were commissioned to to be companion pieces to the mushroom walk that was recently installed by Salish Sea Mushroom.

Very excited to be part of this novel exhibition of flight themed art that will be held for 6 months at The Museum of Flight. The call for artists reads: SEATTLE – The Museum of Flight is now accepting artist proposals and submissions for its 2023 Art+Flight project. During Art+Flight the Museum will boldly depart from its traditional flight path to host a Museum-wide, community-focused celebration connecting the region’s vibrant art scene with its rich aerospace history. The list of curators for the show included Shamim Momin, Head curator for The Henry and my favorite curator in the Seattle area. My piece is a beaded ariel view of Tokyo at night.
