my latest piece

"Not Merely to The Sensory". acrylic and watercolor.

so i've been grindin it out the last two week, 3 paintings completed and starting a fourth... i really wanna keep up this momentum for the rest of this new year... so far so good... two paintings, 1 magazine feature, an online interview, and i am showing at two different places on February 13th.... can you say, "Lets make it Happen and keep it Movin?!"

Gotcha... lol

As a painter i am always on the search for good source imagery for my body of work, i have been lucky enough to know interesting and a wide assortment of friends to call upon to sit for me to do sketches or take photos.... and when worse comes to worse i fall on old photos or stock images... I always find it interesting when i find a piece out there that i love for one reason or another.. and later by happenstance i come across an image or photo that was sourced to make that painting i liked so much.... my newest discovery is the source image that was used by artist Lani Imre to created her most delectable painting titled "Stashia"



I definitely love where she went with this piece.
kudos to ya Lani

Anthony Lister - Dope artist

Lister's work suggest influences from a number of areas and genres, including street art, expressionism, pop art, and contemporary drug culture. It often deals with subject matter from popular culture, reflecting the less glamorous aspects. He occasionally draws from television and such themes as the "misguided role models" that result. He has said that "Australians are raised by Americans on TV" and also that "TV is the contemporary mode of meditation". Lister's own children have had a profound impact on the way he creates art; he has been inspired by "watching what [his] own children are watching on tv" and "what they're bombarded with". He has often stated that he is not trying to make a statement with his work but to reflect the world around him.

He often has recurring themes in his art but probably most famous for his Monkey (Chi-Chi)& Superhero paintings
