Illustrations/Fine Art

Some lifetimes ago I was in a dark patch and had an hard time finding myself out.
Art always helped me express and cope with big emotions.
And at that time I stumbled on an artist that inspired me to create! A safe place to collect my then chaotic mind.
Unfortunately I have forgot the name of her, but this was my take after being totally devoured by her art.
A mix of her and my own creativity. My wellbeing eventually changed for the better, and the need to finishing it faded.
But it still kind of represents a part of my journey to where I am today. Finished or unfinished… I’ve come to terms that some things just needs to be left the way they are️

Spent the day at Crystal Bridges yesterday…they have an “America at 250” exhibit right now. I thought it was tasteful but bittersweet
Some of my favorites…and there was more than one piece utilizing denim.

Loved this one with Sally Hemings on a sliding panel behind Jefferson

Couple more

@SKT great stuff - last one reminds me of a certain Nina Simone tune

@GraemeE I think I know the one…and that piece is Basquiat

I like that tune.

A little out of the ordinary but I thought these envelopes my Grandpa illustrated while in service in the 40’s were especially beautiful. I recently tattooed some of this script on my arm as a tribute to him. Great guy ️

None of the people or addresses exist anymore outside of the military base.

@Oaktavia so cool. Not that you asked but I think there might be a market for commissioned pieces here if you wanted.
