New Year, New works

Well it's February and 2014 is off and running. I recently finished my first piece of the New Year which happens to be another art envelope. I sent it to my sister who recently relocated to Costa Mesa California. It is an interpretation of Roy Lichtenstein's "Pistol" and delves into the psyche of the violence riddled country of Mexico and the grip that drug cartels seem to have on it. Here's how it turned out.

Art Envelopes

Here's another art envelope I sent out a short time ago. I wanted to wait until it reached its new owner before posting it. It's pop in nature with a more modern urban twist as I gave the lips a gold grill.

Picasso!

The other day I got another amazing envelope from a friend in California. I'm participating in an art envelope exchange where we created custom envelopes and exchange them w/other artists through snail mail. It's been allot of fun creating these envelopes. Here is a portrait of one of my favorite artists Picasso. Enjoy! 

*Interesting fact about Picasso

it was said that in his later years Picasso

was not allowed to roam an art gallery

unattended, because he had been caught trying to 

"improve" upon one of his old masterpieces.
