I've been collecting vintage cross-stitches of The Night Watch and using them to upholster various burglary tools. Essentially, skinning tools of violence with a thin veneer of law and order. Part X of X in my series studying the works of the old Dutch Masters. #Mastoart https://www.kaseysmith.net/chiaroscuro
It's been a big week for ghost sign reveals in San Francisco. Here's another one on Treat Street between 21st and 22nd. #sfbay #ghostsigns https://www.patreon.com/sfghostsigns/posts/new-sign-on-in-161323132
I wrote a definitive guide to San Francisco's Carnation Mush ghost signs. #ghostsigns #sfbayarea

I'm always looking for historic photos of 1586 Market Street and its iconic Carnation Mush ghost sign. So I was thrilled to find this pic of the long-theorized, but previously unproven, second Carnation Mush sign on the back of the building. #ghostsigns #sanfrancisco
Putting whimsy back into my life by planting pawpaws next to my 12 Foot Home Depot Skeleton (I live in North Holland).
I forgot to share my last two large art pieces here, which were inspired by Rembrandt's stolen painting The Storm On The Sea Of Galilee, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist of 1990, and one theory about the fate of the art.
