Kitty in a Casket

 

About the Artist: 

1977 - Spawned from the depths of the Inland Empire, in between two beautifully toxic bodies of water (Lake Elsinore and the Salton Sea), I grew up a cartoon & horror movie junkie and all-around fan of the stranger things in life…and my work reflects that. With no art schooling beyond my high school career, I decided to go the “lone wolf” outsider artist route. So here I am today, a vigilante Lowbrow artist on a mission from God... or Satan.I can’t remember. I started my career with displaying my paintings at local hot rod shows, doing flyer & t-shirt designs for punk rock bands and generally anyone who wanted commissioned art. I’ve been showing my artwork in galleries for about 20 years now, whether it be group shows, solo shows or co-curated shows. I’ve had work in such galleries as Copro Gallery, Hyaena Gallery, Dark Art Emporium, The Night Gallery, Mystic Museum, Halloweentown, The Last Bookstore, The Hive, Harold Golen Gallery, Forgotten Saints, Surf Club Gallery and Creature Features to name a few.In May of 2021 I did a split show with my sister/artist, Bunny Baum at The Dark Art Emporium entitled The Bunny & Creep Show, which brought me a lot of joy to work with my lil sis. I’m also a screen printer by trade and have printed apparel for my artist friends, local shops & art galleries. I’m currently melding my painting/screen printing skills and channeling the spirit of Warhol to create limited hand silk screened printed artworks under The Creep’s Art Print Garage. So, if you like the Munsters, Ratfink, rock & roll, 50s & 60s camp and just generally F’d up things, then enjoy!”
