finally some new art...

its been awhile since i pushed anything out of my head..

i'm on a creative writing hiatus for certain reasons, so i've been meaning to create some art to at least contribute to the blog. plus i'll be hanging up these pieces and a couple others at some shows coming up.


i completed this first piece awhile back at a friends house, i just randomly threw stuff on the small canvas and ended up with this concept of the 5 senses.

"Sense of Philosophy"
(Tempera, Acrylic, Sharpie)



on each side of the canvas i wrote a lil blurb relating to the sense that side had.

(Smell) "Breathe in the smell of the journey."
(Hearing) "Listen outside the image."
(Touch) "Reach for the ends of reality."
(Taste) "Taste the fruit of life."
(Sight) "See past the abstract...and ascend."

This next piece I completed about 2 hours ago. It's a piece made in memory of a friend who recently passed. Despite everything she was dealt; her display of wisdom and strength were truly inspirational.

The other day I walked into a borders and looked around. For the first time, I actually found a book that highly sparked my interest and walked out with it (paying of course, haha). That book was Banksy's Wall and Piece". After finishing looking over the book this person became my new favorite artist. His whole concepts behind stencil are too fresh.

So I put 2 and 2 together and got this..

"True Strength"
(Tempera, Acrylic, Spraypaint [Stenciled])
