That’s amazing and generous! I remember your LACMA exhibit show, and it was the first time I was able to ever see an original Beksinski and Moebius painting in person. Such a magical and near religious moment. Its a beautiful collection.

“a little too late…”
oil on panel, 5”x7”

back at it

Oh hell yeah! this is awesome Andrew! this set is really reaaally gorgeous

woah!! that took me back! I remember your old sketchbook thread with the burnt sienna like background that matched the forum’s background 😆 Had yours and a few other’s threads bookmarked

Oh man, i think mine was “dished’s dirty dishes” or something like that 💀🫠😆

I remember using a shitty webcam cause I didn’t have scanner to upload my loomis studies and sketchbook pages in my thread 💀

just a lil gouache

Hey folks, Big Leo Szn/ Birthday sale starts now! Budget is a lil tight this month & i’m trying to clear up some studio space too. I turn 35 so $35 off all my oil paintings here in this thread.

215$ each (normally 250) free shipping/delivery in the US/canada.

DM or text me to purchase.

At the finish line with John and @wesburt.bsky.social , who got us in in the ride in the first place back in 2023. Rest stop with my lovely teammates, Strawberries from the sisters at the pacifica ruins where my Dad and I used to park and eat KFC

17m Raised, also raised a whopping 119k for Bradley School — from lunch & the hundred dollar burger club. field trips and essential supplies, programs for this towns only school. Red dress day for WeSpoke and of course the candle light vigil in Ventura lead by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence

Some snippets from ALC, fun halfway to LA shenanigans, Day 1 send off, a little cucumber beetle friend that hitchhiked and kept me company for like 10 miles descending into Cayucos

The funds we raised will go to critical services for communities through the SF Aids Foundation and the LA LGBT center to provide live saving care and support. Those funds are also coming at a critical time when funding for programs like these are being slashed. So a massive thank you 🫶

Just wanted to day a MASSIVE thank you to everyone here to donated, shared and supported! I post more bike stuff on IG, but wanted to update here too. i’m so stoked to ride in the final 545!!!

condolences to you and your loved ones RJ

Generally just keep at it & have fun. *Balance* studies, practicing fundamentals AND exploring your own ideas, experimenting & having fun. Build line confidence, just go for it. Fill up a sketchbook, don’t worry about bad pages learn from them and let it go.
