I was really feeling Mac’s final album which is still hard to believe that he’s no longer around I wanted to drawing to it since certain imagery came into my head while listening to it. Circles was a beautiful companion piece to Swimming and its definitely worth listening to and getting a unique perspective on life during and after as well as moving forward after misfortunes in your life’s journey.
Good News,Surf,and Blue World is on constant rotation.

Here’s both Mugen & Jin together to form the iconic Samurai Champloo intro. It looks so dope together and it really unifies these 2 distinct characters into one piece.
There will be a limited run of hand embellished prints through Vault Gallerie soon so stay tuned.

Had some down time to do a like fan art for IGOR, especially since I drew for the other Tyler albums (minus WOLF) over the years since 2013. I may do a full on traditional version of this one someday but I ain’t got time.BTW my favourite track from IGOR is “New Magic Wand”

My Etch A Sketch of Gustave Caillebotte’s Paris Street; Rainy day is finally DONE!
It took 9 sessions and 12 hours to finish etching this behemoth from life at the Art Institute of Chicago. My first session with this painting was in July of 2016, so it literally took me over 2 years to complete.
Between the 4th and 5th sittings, I took over a year off. For that year, this half-complete rendition sat on my dresser collecting dust….gently reminding me of my work to be finished. It feels really good to be done. The original has sold, but I am selling limited edition prints on etsy!

I had fun with this one, gotta work with my bro more often. The beauty of working with family and friends, it’s not about the money, it’s about the craft and creating something they can appreciate…
