I have been working on a mural project at Gameworks down at newport on the levee and I have come to the sad relization that latex paints fucking suck. Some of the older cans that I was able to find have been okay but only the lighter colors keep an even consistency. Black was a real bitch until I figured out how to pull the settled pigment to the top of the mix. Even then the latex clogs your brush so quickly that fine lines are almost out of the question. Good ole sharpie started to come through for me, but of course sharpie isn't exactly archival on top of indoor latex paint so it could end up looking like shit in a couple years. Of course i won't be around when that happens and its just a hack job. Not really any kind of individual artistic merit to the project.
Anyways, atleast its a paying job to make artwork, even if its just a big company logo.

I remember you, you were the "artist" posting a self portrait in the Artist Group, and when I saw yours it totally made me flip and post my opinion on pointlessness of slavish copying of photographs and calling it art. You managed to copy your creepy proflile picture then, I remember! Haha. Well my dear evidently our understanding of art is radically different. Thanks for the only negative comment out of over 750.
You have Van Gogh amongst your fave artists yet you're stuck copying photos... Maybe you should buy yourself a camera instead.

Thanks for your comments on the landscape. If you have any suggestions on top of the criticism, I'd really appreciate it. Means a lot. Most people don't have the guts or the ability to actually give real criticism.
By the way, I LOVE your work.
