glass angel

so here's the painting i did the other night with a little help from my friend trent. 20 hours + trent's help = rad painting. i'm not sure if he know's that he helped me ha.
i sent it today to florida for the art/heart show i mentioned a few weeks ago. gah i wanted to do 3 paintings but i had this terrible art block.. if i had the money i would have sent a few doors down but since i'm broke as hell i couldn't... i'm lucky i got to send this one. i've given the piece to the show, so all the proceeds go to the charity. for the kids people! if you're in florida next month go to the show buy some stuff and help out your fellow humans. it's for the kids man!

guerrilla art show!

so last night was fun. i set up shop at a closed liquor store that had the doors boarded up, right between several bars.. i had five paintings (2 doors two panels and one glued cigarette box's) and in between the doors i nailed a piece of wall paper. i had decided earlier to do a live painting, to help pass the time.. and also as a way to do some illegal art on the down-low. i painted a cliche gabrielesque face but then i started cutting parts out here and there and immediately painted over the holes... thus turning the painting into a stencil as well.. at one point there were several police right next to me because of some sort of bar-related mishap.. it was very entertaining to be doing something like i was, with a spotlight on me, getting away with mischief right under the laws nose. rad. as for my first stencil, you can check it out on sprague nexct to the ridpath.. kinda sloppy, but sorta hesh and thus i still like it.

this is a picture of the painting i did last night.. some random drunk dude took with his cell. not the best pic but whatever. man it was cold out!

first friday street art

meh well another first "friday art walk" is nearly here..
yeah i think i'm going to pick up my work from the empyrean and squat downtown for the night... displaying my art on the sidewalk. maybe some drunk will want to impress a friend or themselves by buying something. weirder stuff has happened. hit me up if you're around, ill be practically giving shit away, prolly near the art gallery next to pistole, on sprague. also:
i have a charity group showing in florida next month, so look forward to me posting this november with status reports of the works in progress. i think 3 largish paintings should suffice, and i have a theme AND a model. woo more free art for the masses!. i hope someday i'm at the position where i can make art for free on a large scale. sigh it's gonna take money lol. i dream of a legit screen print set up and a giant printer. i'd love to do screenprints using my own blood. that'd be rad.
