“King Nothing And The Discovery Of The Lost Venus (For SAMO).” Acrylic and aerosol on panel. 40in x 25in. Original and prints available. Message me for inquiries.

“King Nothing And The Discovery Of The Lost Venus (For SAMO)” is a love story and homage to Basquiat, as well as a tribute to the many historical paintings of Venus that preceded it and the many that will come after it. Can you spot the crown? I was recently asked to describe my work, to which I responded…“Imagine the love child of van Gogh and Basquiat.”
