SIMON HAAS

Born  1984 in Los Angeles, CA

I am most known for my work as one half of The Haas Brothers with my twin brother, Niki.  We are lucky enough make dream objects every day.  For self-care, and because  it's been a passion of mine since I was a teenager, I draw and paint -- mostly portraits --- even more mostly self-portraits.

My personal work is incredibly important to me, I make it because it helps me.  I enjoy making the work I've done at the Tom Of Finland House - a shrine to the man who did so much for me and countless other queer boys - to take anonymous dick pics and venerate them - to praise the D!   I enjoy making my self portraits - intimate moments with me that transcend mirror face into a space that won't be captured unless I'm alone.  I enjoy showing you how I look at my friends and how I see the world.

If you want to purchase an original, let me know - many on this site are not available.  I don't much enjoy commissions but we can talk.

I hope you enjoy.
