For the Halloween season, what better way to celebrate than to create a spooky character? This portrait was completed in Procreate and drawn for a subreddit I follow over on Reddit.
Starring MGMT: Weekend Wars (2007). Let me tell you a story about reading about wars and craving for a future in peace. About the Beatles singing about a revolution to change the world. About people being too occupied with their own lives to "paint or write or try to make a change". Tricolor linoprint using one lino plate. August, 2020.
Ah yes, this... It all started two weeks ago when my mom said I could buy this pumpkin if I could carry it, and I did. All 50lbs of it. I kind of had an idea going into this, it got thrown out the window as soon as I started. 6 hours later I present this creature to you.
Starring Django Django: Marble Skies (2018). Let me tell you a story about chasing dreams and overcoming obstacles. About the recurring feeling of "rain following marble skies". About success and frustration. About fascination and mania. Tricolor linoprint using one lino plate. September, 2020.

I had just started painting again and all the years if holding back...holding it in, caught up with me. California was burning and the demons inside of me were smoldering too, waiting to get out.
