Today history was made in the wake of the world's warrior women. The importance of it can't be understated, everyone of every gender, color, sexuality and religion marching for the sake of not just women's rights but human rights. A global protest against any past, present, or future impeachment of civil liberties not just in the US but abroad, and this only marks the BEGINNING. #november21st #globalrightswalk #womensmarch #positivity #humanrights #nov212017 #history #standingtogether #ihatepolitics #ilovepeoplethough #beginning

Inktober, Day 26 Prompt; 'Box' Given how close it is away, I figured spinning this piece with Dia De Los Muertos would be fun. #inktober #inktober2016 #box #macabre #skeleton #sleep #tired #flowers #diadelosmuertos #hsbartz

Damn, missed the day by 30 minutes but whatever. Here's my piece for day 26th's prompt for Inktober 'Tired' #inktober2016 #inktober #art #tired #ink #day26

I know i'm jumping in a little late but here's my post for Inktober's prompt for the 22nd, 'Little'(Inktober is an internet event trying to give artist's reason to post a new ink drawing everyday in October). I know it's been a long time since my last post, sorry about that, I've been pretty busy with stuff and am now preparing for the Dia De Los Muertos Carpenteria show that'll be happening at the end of this week.

Another from the One Recovery Gallery 'Surf Art' Show that was in mid July. This one of surfing legend Duke Kahanamoku aka "The Big Kahuna" who was Hawaii's first olympian and is credited with popularizing surfing on the world stage. #hsbartz #surflegends #duke #dukekahanamoku #thebigkahuna #surfing #surf #hawaii #olympian #art #painting #acrylic #waves #motion #purple

A piece which didn't get a chance to be shown at the 'Surf Art' show in Santa Monica back in mid-July at the One Recovery Gallery. Water-Soluble Oil Pastels, and digitally 'remastered' a little bit with some iphone apps and photoshop.

I've been going back to some old sketches, which I never had any intention of sharing, and sprucing them up a bit to make them presentable. This one was an old pen/prismacolor sketch which I ran through a bunch of filters and photoediting programs while tracking the changes made to it. Then I crossfaded a few frames and made a video! Enjoy! #hsbartz #trippy #gif #mp4 #video #art #dynamic #pen #prismacolor #painting #prisma #photoshop #old #oldman #wise #living #growing #dying

Until July 14th, The Sacred Board Of Eddie Aikau will be on display at the One Recovery gallery, acting as homage and a final glimpse a the last known thing to be touched by a great hero. Eddie Aikau was well known during his time as an impressive surfer in his own right, winning several contests, however you could argue that his truly great achievements in life came from his talent to save others as opposed to his talents for surfing. In 1968 he became the first Lifeguard of Waimea Bay and served the City Honolulu dutifully, saving at least 500 people during his lifeguarding career. He was unafraid of the water and would paddle out to rescue surfers from 30 foot waves without hesitation, rightfully being awarded Lifeguard of the Year in 1971. In 1978 he volunteered along with 30 others to participate in a 2,500 mile voyage following the ancient migration routes of the Polynesian people, however part way through their journey their vessel developed a leak and was capsized miles away from Molokai. Confident in his paddling ability and stamina due to years upon years of lifeguarding Eddie took off on his surfboard toward Lanai in an attempt to contact help. However, in the worst kind of irony, the crew members are saved by the US Coast Guard and Eddie was never seen again. Over the course of Eddie Aikau's lifeguarding career, not a single life was lost at Waimea Bay. #eddiewouldgo I got chills after hearing this story and standing in front of this massive board. Truly inspiring. More surf memorabilia and art is on display until July 14th at One Recovery Gallery in Santa Monica. Art by Drew Brophy and John Van Hammersveld, the board Patrick Swayze rode in the original Point Break and much more. 1431 Ocean Avenue, Santa Monica. #eddieaikau #surfing #surf #surfart #surflegends #surfing #drewbrophy #johnvanhamersveld #johnseverson #memoir #history #lifeguard #hawaii #waves #tradegy #irony #poetic #honor (at ONE Recovery Gallery)

Close up for the Greg Noll painting. This guy's awesome, he started to gain popularity in the late 50s and 60s for riding 25-35ft waves in surf spots that local Hawaiians deemed dangerous or even impossible. Especially when he became the first surfer to ride in the infamous Banzai Pipeline, which is an outside reef known for having life-threateningly scary waves. #surfart #hsbartz #gregnoll #dabull #surf #painting #waves #fanart #surflegends #onerecovery #art #acrylic (at ONE Recovery Gallery)

My painting of Greg Noll, aka "Da Bull" for sale at the One Recovery Gallery at 1431 Ocean Avenue Santa Monica. If you can't make it but are still interested in purchasing just pm me, though you'd be missing out on some amazing memorabilia and art. (at ONE Recovery Gallery)

So appreciative to be invited to participate in One Recovery Gallery's (@_1recovery ) "The Art of Surf" show at 1431 Ocean Avenue, Santa Monica. Some of the surfing world's most influential artists are participating, along with some amazing memorabilia that's on display. We have the Sacred Board of Eddie Aikau, which is the last thing he was seen alive on, Patrick Swayze's board from the original Pointbreak, art from the designer's of the Rolling Stone's and Sublime's cover art and many other amazing artists who all elevate the status of surfing's art culture. I am a little intimidated by the sheer level of talent and experience brought to the table and am so thankful for the opportunity. Pictured above is my acrylic painting of surf legend Gerry Lopez, aka "Mr. Pipeline" #artofsurf #hsbartz #drewbrophy #johnvanhammersveld #joshuapaskowitz #roygonzalez #onerecovery #movement #wave #waves #surfboard #mrpipeline (at ONE Recovery Gallery)

The second page of instructions I made on how to create a clay person for a sculpting class I taught at SBHS. The last was all about making the initial form and this one's all about the detail work like getting muscle mass and proper proportions, as well with getting into creating a rough face, and giving tips on how to tell if your character is balanced enough to stand and pose without the assistance of an armature (kind of a clay skeleton if you don't know.)

The notes I drew up on how to make a clay person, there's a couple pages that we xerox'd and handed out to the students. Thought they'd be fun to share.
