The Temple of Art kickstarter is now live. I am honored to be a part of this endeavor alongside many talented artists including Neil Gaiman, Jon Schnepp, Allan Amato, Amanda Palmer, Barron Storey, Dave McKean, Dan Quintana, J.A.W. Cooper, Matthew Bone, Karen Hsiao, David Stoupakis and many more. Please take some time to support this wonderful project by visiting our Kickstarter page here: The Temple of Art is an art and photography project over 2 years in the making. It is a unique collaboration between over 50 artists and celeb photographer Allan Amato. Allan took photos of all of us, and we all created original physical artwork over the images. The project started out as a book and gallery pitch, and now we are Kickstarting a documentary that explores our process, our motivations as artists, and why we create the art we do. Check the lineup, there won't be anything like this. More also on our FB page: https://www.facebook.com/templeofartdocumentary As artists, we are rarely given an opportunity to confront our perceptions of reality and self; this film will illuminate the universal tension between the pursuit of our vision and the demands of a critical world.
