His most recent works are large portraits of artists and societal trailblazers using drafting pencils on multiple sheets of vellum paper or charcoal on unstretched, unprimed canvas. Salamon has produced dozens of short films, creates figurative sculptures in various mediums, and is also a museum curator and punk rock musician. Salamon has been a long-time Southern California resident and graduated summa cum laude from California State University, Los Angeles.
