Mark Murphy has put together an amazing group of talent for this year's GenArt Vanguard art fair, held during the Art Basel Miami week. Above you can see the paintings completed by yours truly for the mission, inspired by Mark's undertaking and my further study into The Intimate Parade (a Suggestivist undertaking in exploring the Inbetween).

ALEX GREY / BL!SSS

The latest article that Greg and I had the honor to do was with legendary visionary artist and guru Alex Grey in BL!SSS Magazine. Alex was very gracious, taking precious time from preparing for his trip to speak at Giger's museum in Switzerland the next morning. 

Needless to say, Grey was extremely well-spoken and generous in sharing about his work, roots and process. He also talks about his moving of the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors from the city to the neighboring countryside and his work with the Temples of Damanhur (touted by some as the Eight Wonder of the World).

He also sent us a picture of him and Giger at the lecture when he returned (below).

Enjoy!
