“Basquiat” 2019 | 18x18 inches Acrylic in Mixed Media Paper | When first approached about this piece, I was super excited to draw/paint him. But! The client’s idea to recreate a photo of Basquiat with his work went strongly against my stance on not duplicating a painting by another artist. So I came up with a solution that worked for us both and involved him in the process! I asked him to send a bunch of his favorite pieces, which I digitally composited to create a whole other piece for the background and merged that with an image of Basquiat. The result, something different than what you usually see from me and I enjoyed every single freaking second of creating it! Change is refreshing! xo

I've decided to wrap up the "Adorn Her" series with these two and spending my spare time lately in introvert mode working on personal pieces whenever I can. A while back I spoke about how I started working on multiple pieces side by side, at the same time and I've continued to do so. It was a huge change for me since for many years I would never start a new piece before finishing another. I've found that this switch in my process works for me, especially with series pieces and multiple piece projects that need to maintain consistency throughout. I've come to enjoy working this way immensely and even more so the beauty in one piece becoming inspiration for the other. That right there has been the sweet spot! #thatArtista #changeisgood #artLove

Hi loves! Remember that book illustration project from last year? Well, about 30 illustrations later and lots of hard work from the team it's here! I couldn't be happier with the final product, it is an absolutely beautifully done book! Much love to Penwild & Layla Bryant for taking me on this journey with you & letting me do my thing with your vision! 😘 Did a quick flip through on snapchat (thatArtista) & you can visit www.penwild.com to get yours!

From this morning's journal entry.... When your world shakes, stand strong in gratitude. The in between sucks, but eventually those shakes become tremors, they will quiet, they will cease to exist. This too shall pass. Smiling (more accurately, smirking) through the quakes and reminding myself, that I got this.
