"Creatures of Habit" is a series named and designed from inspiration of working at Vitae Distillery. Using abstract backgrounds, bright colors, and the inclusion of animals hanging out with cocktails, was a fun way to say good by to summer in Charlottesville. Each unique piece, starts with a modification of images to create several copies of pixelated prints, then cut them into a set of stencils. After freehand spray painting the backgrounds, the stencils are used one-by-one as layouts for paint application. I have been an artist for many years and have worked with different media over that time, including; pen and ink, graphite, acrylics, spray paint, wood carving, stone carving and digital media. I accept custom orders upon request. This style is applicable to any photo or image that you enjoy. Send me and email and we can discuss your own unique portraits. Contact TJ at [email protected] |
