Here's a cool #transformation and #throwback post from some work I did in high school🌌 The first one is my surrealism piece from FRESHMAN year and the second is my 4 pt. series from SENIOR year! I just think it's cool to see the transformation in the galaxy backgrounds, especially with the depth and the way I applied the paint. . Today I will begin to paint some more galaxy pieces for my girly @jaymiealexandra22 aka my new roomie this year!! I'll keep you guys updated on those pieces💙 #art #artistsoninstagram #painting #acrylicpainting #oilpainting #transformation #galaxy #space #universe

"OWN THE DAY" by me Mixed Media on Wrapped Canvas 3 ft x 4 ft . . 🖤 I FINALLY finished my first painting of the semester and I did a portrait of Meechy Darko (@meechisdead)I wanted to do something a little different so I decided to use different materials for this. I painted him using oil paint of course, but I attached a red faux leather background, rhinestones into his grill and earring, I sewed the chain, and I painted and glued poly fiber fill for his beard/dreads! This baby is huge and was a big challenge but I am absolutely in love with it. Can't wait to start my next portrait!🎨

"X 100PRE" by me Color Lithography 2019 . . 🐰My last edition of the semester goes to @badbunnypr! Love his music, style, and personality so much! "X 100PRE" (pronounced Por Siempre which means "forever") is the title of his album so I decided to name the edition as such. I did a stylized portrait of him based on the last pic. If you wanna get into some Spanish music then Bad Bunny is where it's at!!

"Untitled" by me Acrylic on Wrapped Canvas 2018 . . 🌵Made this piece today while doing practicum at Corona del Sol High School with my previous art teacher @megnorthcutt!! I was so happy to be back there to get my hours. I love seeing all the work that the students were making. I definitely want to teach HS! #art #artistsoninstagram #acrylicpainting #cactus #arteducation
