Previous Works

I wanted to share some of my previous pieces. Most were done last year. You can kinda see the transformation. The Memento Verde actually did not have the skull at first. I added that later on after being inspired by Banksy's movie, Exit Through the Gift Shop. I will probably incorporate more hands on painting in my future works. It will take longer to finish stuff, but you can really tell the difference between something that was done in one day versus something that took 2 weeks to do. Also planning on doing a series dealing with one theme. I have to really start doing that because i feel as though my artwork is all over the place.

Religion and Art

New piece that i finished a couple of days ago. Biggest work so far (on a 24X36 canvas) I've always been amazed by how religious artworks affects humanity. Churches, synagogues, mosques, and temples are filled with artworks. It only makes sense to honor the two subjects and combine them together. 

I wanted to show the process of making this painting. Probably the hardest part was controlling the over-spray. Using an adhesive spray really helped. Gonna have to thank Eelus for that advise. Enjoy! 










Make it drip baby!
