Nines

A new furniture shop in North Denver recently opened. I had a chance to check it out and it’s filled with great vintage mid-century finds.

Office Space for rent in LoHi

Attention designers, developers, writers and all creative types. We currently have an extra space in a shared office at 1513 Boulder St. in the Lower Highlands

Photos

I took up photography about three years back as a creative outlet after purchasing a camera for This Week In Denver that went largely unused by the writers

I’m currently shooting with a Nikon D80 with the standard 18-55 lens. I hope to add a 70-300, wide angle and a better 18-55 to my collections.

My Artwork

My parents claim that once I got a hold of a pencil, I started drawing. Unfortunately my first piece was a mural from one end of my crib to the next. They got a hold of a large stack of dot-matrix printer paper, gave me pencils and crayons and let me draw as long as the paper lasted. Cheap babysitting if you ask me

I’m currently working on pieces for a group show. I attend life drawing classes and have occasionaly posed as well (after a few drinks).
