In this memory-driven piece, Patmore reconstructs the bathroom from his third-grade elementary school, capturing the sterile brightness, the tiled repetition, and the institutional reminder to “WASH YOUR HANDS.” But the scene is not pristine — a leaky sink, an out-of-order stall, and a taped-up sign reveal the quiet decay behind childhood places we assume were orderly and safe. Patmore blends nostalgia with unease, transforming a simple restroom into a study of what it means to grow up: how the lessons we learn early (“hygiene,” discipline, responsibility) stay with us even after the walls begin to crack. The small pop of blue tape emphasizes the DIY fragility of rules meant to guide us. This piece stands at the intersection of memory and maintenance — of spaces, of bodies, and of ourselves.

This is a commission I've been working on ,it's taking a very long time . Colored pencil on toned tan paper .

I didn't count how many but I painted some delightful crows I've seen around Los Angeles: "Birds Of Paradise"

This is fox I drew in colored pencil for my daughter , she has it hanging in a frame in her room .

Am I being followed ??

a red avadavat to start this new year, may it be productive and full of drawings!

I really like to experiment. This time I created a mixed media artwork - lemons :)

This artwork was made for Inktober 2020

I just wanted to have a bit of fun, experimenting with different features and hair. I’ve still got a lot to learn though, but let me know what you think (:

Acrylic on canvas, mixed media, copper sulphate crystals and sea shells

This is a rendition of a traditional Buddhist deity. Read the essay that goes with the image here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gbpgx8-zX3ZVJrZanSG24ZGu2VMt6dNWVM34G_R0oW8/edit?usp=sharing

I haven't posted for awhile. The only thing I seem to be able to do right now, besides boring traditional student work (does anyone really want to see endless figure studies? I think not) is this weird graphic Journal. It may be the only thing I do for awhile here.

Jean Valjean hands Cosette the doll at the Thernardier's inn- scene from Victor Hugo's "Les Miserables", acrylic on canvas.

Adhd meds at their best. Felt tip fun.

Inktober prompt: Slippery. Drawn with a Shaeffer Tuckaway, Hero blue black ink

Based on photo but different this drawing from the original picture. I drew it a few months ago. I used Derwent Academy, Staedtler and Fiorello colour pencils. I don’t drew many color pictures yet because I don't have enough pencils.

I've been working on my dragons lately, so tell me what you think!!

Tried drawing a dragon for the first time. Dont think I did too bad

I tried to work on my gesture drawing this meetup. The red marked are my favorite. I have tried to reduce the figure to just the flowing lines. It is very satisfying to draw like this

Most likely the only attempt you'll see me do with real life people portraits.

Sketch was completed in a local coffee shop that also sells cactuses and succulents.

Second in a little trilogy here…

Alternative life drawing session again tonight! My pal Orion slayed with his fox-like vibes so he did :-)

First whale in the new sketchbook!
