#timelapse painting

This is a 4 ft. x 8 ft. canvas, the biggest painting I’ve ever done. This project was a commission from Kickback, Co., a gaming startup in California. 

• “Unicorn” is a buzz word meaning “a startup company whose value = $1billion+”  
  

This painting took about 50 hours to do, not as long as I thought it would take. I wish I had gotten more footage of when I painted the eye and the snout, but c'est la vie. So here we go! A 50 hour project summarized in a 7 min. video. Oh also, I named him Goliath, which is actually the title of the painting. Goliath (2016) is currently on his way to his new owners in San Francisco.

“The sticky horror in our throats is not just for what we see, but for ourselves. We long to be there, in the heat of it. It is spiteful to leave us here, wasting away. We feel in ourselves a nuclear fire, always on the verge of explosion." 

 I had the pleasure of working with Strange Horizons to create something for Senaa Ahmad’s short story "The Glow-in-the-Dark Girls”.
