The Dania Heller Project

I was asked by fashion designer Dania Heller to paint a mural like painting for her upcoming collection that was inspired by East Los Angeles Vatas. I had about 2 weeks to finish this painting before I was to roll it and mail it to her in Tel Aviv. She then worked in and applied this mural, painted on jersey with acrylics to a mens jacket as a main focus of her collection and runway show. (acrylic and fabric marker on jersey fabric, 2006)

In the fall of 2005 I curated my first show with Craig Jackman, owner/tattooist of American Electric Tattoo Co. in Silver Lake, CA. The show worked around the theme "Shipwrecked". I have always wanted to paint a mermaid, so I did. SOLD
