Death Comforts You II
Since it looks like this painting is already sold I put a little time into laying down basecoats on it today. Depending on how much time I can dedicate I figure I’ll finish it this week, although I anticipate it being a rough week… Dealing with the despicable things being attempted is extremely draining. Hopefully I fare better than my lizard friend here. His week got the better of him.
I have a bunch of old paintings that I don’t really know what to do with because they’re low quality work and I just don’t have space for them all. I’ve been making assessments of what’s worth keeping and what’s not… Some of the canvasses I can reclaim, but unfortunately most of the canvasses are too small to bother keeping, and because I don’t think it’s good work, I’d rather scrap the paintings than see them hanging somewhere else. I use them to do experiments first though — seeing how different media combine and so on — so it’s not a total waste at least.

The painting is turning out absolutely gorgeous! I can’t say how much I adore your style. And the second piece you have posted is quite nice as well. I wish I had the spare cash to buy a piece off you.

That has to be the cutest grim reaper representation I’ve ever seen.

Long time zentastic/inml lurker, but I’ve so enjoyed seeing your paintings/illustrations over the past couple of years. I just love the bright colors and bold lines. They make me happy. Thanks for sharing them with us - especially those of us that won’t be able to make your inevitable shows. Best of luck (with you painting and the bme stuff).

all experiences make you who you are today, make you able to be who you are so nothing is a wasted - whether it be learning about your painting techniques or yourself.
hope things are going well.

What does the Russian translate to?

The russian writing says:
“Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you”
here’s the history of this:
