FGF Aftermath

1. Welcome 2. The Nice Penguins get nice.

1. That’s just about what it looks like now.

As always, I had a lot of fun. Hello to: Nice Penguins (love the piece), Mantron (you got some good ghost stories), Richard (V21 represent!), Lisa (thanks for the drinks!), Paul (my personal extension cord finder), and of course Peachies.

Till next time amigos.

Who Is Nemesis Jaxson?

Working on a big gig for someone’s side project. The idea was to re-create this artist as a mysterious DJ. Someone who has always been there in the background, hyping up the crowd.

I knew I wanted an old black and white photograph of some musicians… so I did some research and did a massive search for some stock photography.

I had this photograph from the Feel Good Fusion events I attend.

Then I put in some photoshop magic, combining the two photographs and integrating them to make it seem like one.

More of Nemesis Jaxson soon to follow…

Evil Monito Ill’s

Evil Monito was an original. An online magazine that deconstructed pop culture with an academic pen and an artistic eye. Now it’s back again. Rickey asked me about contributing pencil drawings of featured interviews. The aim was to create a classic portrait with out the extreme polish. For me, this meant to just do a portrait the way I do it. Below are some of the drawings:

I Feel Good

Had a nice night at Feel Good Fusion the other Friday. Gotta say it wasn’t as packed as the last two, but i thought it had just the right amount of people (that means I didn’t have to wait an hour to get a drink). This time around I decided to step up the “interactive” level of the performance and actually draw as many heads at the event as possible. So I spent several minutes getting to know some of the attendees and taking their head shots. Then it was back to my station where I would do the drawings of the actual people attending.

1. That’s right son, people are actually taking pictures of my work. 2. You know you made it when people are forging your artwork.

1. Dj Revolution doing his thing. 2. This is where I last left off…

Unfortunately I arrived at the event late (sorry Denkym!) so I didn’t come close to finishing the piece. If you want to see the finished piece as well as the finished Feb. piece, come to the next one! Really though, come on out. I gotta say, Feel Good Fusion is always a good time. The vibe is amazing, I can’t think of another event where so many different types of people gather to truly enjoy the arts and get down.

Till next time BITCHES!!!
