Well I’m still trying to figure that out, but I do know I just painted the two for a very special and private gathering in my studio.
My friend the AMAZING photographer Cesar Altamirano wanted to do something special for his wife’s b day and asked if I would do a performance of her two favorite things: Hello Kitty and Lady Gaga. For Cesar, yes.
This past weekend Cesar, his wife Annie, and a few of her closest friends stopped by to watch me create. There are some pics here but check out Cesars Flickr for a lot more.
(P.S. No I do not normally give private performances at my studio. Sorry)
Special thanks to OMGItsSteveSiu for posting this video on YouTube. This is the first painting I did for ISA NY at Webster Hall. This painting took about 3.5 minutes to do. I did about 3 paintings total in my 15 min slot. This one has been a popular one lately. Still working on it to make it better each time though. Thanks again to everyone who came out to ISA NY!
I cannot believe I have not even searched for this before. Okay, you’ve heard of chalk paint, now there is “Idea Paint”. What is that? Turn any wall or surface that can be painted into a dry erase board. I came across this on Uncrate.com but you can find more info about this product on their website IdeaPaint.com.
This would be awesome for any creative meeting room!
One of the joys of traveling is having the opportunity to see a familiar face hundreds, or even thousands of miles from home. This trip to Boston I had the chance to hook up with my dad who was also in the area on business. I had a great time hanging with him.
I introduce to you part 1 of the “Color From The Sky Collection”.
The past few years I have found myself flying all over the world and at most times I always feel like I’m on a plane 30,000 feet in the sky. I’ve spent most of that time catching up on sleep, but also creating.
I started most of these images on planes and later finished them in hotel rooms, airports, or back home. So most of these started out as “Color From The Sky”. Most of you know me as the “performance painter” on stage or you’ve seen my posters online or in stores. This is just another side to me as an artist. The creativity never stops. I definitely have some more coming, but let me know what you think about the first set from the series.
We filmed this not too long ago at my studio in the Sacramento area and it was so much fun. This was a perfect fit because I have an on the go lifestyle and music inspires me each step of the way. So DICE helps me stay connected to that inspiration. This also gives you a little insight into what it takes to go from Studio to Stage. Big shout out to Joseph One too for appearing in this clip!
I love the combination of the story and the texture of the animation. I need to watch it a few more times to get it, but it is still a very intriguing piece.
