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

[SKT]

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

[goosehd]

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.

@Anesthetist just love these. Thanks for sharing with us

First of a series of paintings of Iron Heart denim. This one is my 888SUHR. @Giles

Nice one Stevie......

[Oaktavia]

@Giles thanks dude, definitely making more. Need more lumber.

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

I would be more than happy to paint anyone's faded denim- that would make me a happy! Commissions are open.

@Oaktavia Good idea to open a thread saying what you will and won't do. Give some parameters of what you are offering...

Edit: Here is what @seawolf started when he offered leatherworks for sale and could be a good guide: https://forum.ironheart.co.uk/topic/3006/zeebee-leather?_=1783723024243

He would also be a good resource to ask for advice on what worked for him and ways to offer your services.

@goosehd oh hadn't thought of that, great idea. I will make one and check out the link you shared to use as reference. Thank you.

[goosehd]

@Oaktavia Best of luck and can’t wait to see what you come up with!!

Two additional collaboration pieces with my now 10 month old boy Jack.
