Session 2

Posted by Zach

Tony, Marion, and myself all recently got together for another work session.. this time at Marion's home and studio in Sunnyside, Queens. I guess it was less of a work session, and more of a brainstorming on this collaborative mural we are going to be painting on the front Thinkspace gallery wall for the show. Regardless, some flix.





Tony handed me off his contribution to our collabo piece for the front wall.. just gotta tweak the color on this one a bit.. nice!

While I was there, I captured some of the work Marion has hanging around her house. See this pic below? These are some of Marion's more recent work.. See the piece on the right? That one is mine!


These 2 pieces below are collaborations with another super dope painter Stephen Holding, who also happens to be her boyfriend. I agree.. a lethal combination.

And yes this is ODB.. but what you don't know is that this is painted on velvet! Marion painted this one.

This is by a very talented painter and tattoo artist, Ben Peas, a friend of both of ours.

China, china, china

Sorry for the lack in recent posts! I was completely distracted by traveling, work & the holidays... HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Anyway, here are some pics from a quick trip to Shenzhen China- one of the craziest places I have ever passed through...

The air is so thick you can literally choke on it- regardless of that I made the best of my stay and managed to snap a few flics even through the thick, suffocating haze.

Early Inspiration

Posted By Tony

In late September I took a trip to Greece for 2 weeks. I can not even begin to explain the shit I saw. Really!!! But I did take pics. I stayed in Athens and on a small island about 4 hrs away by boat called Syros where my fathers side of the fam comes from. The monastaries and religious iconagraphy is just simply amazing. Lots of gold, Lots of Bling!!! Yanahmean!?













Also hit up the Museums real tight work in there ya'll. One of my faves of course is this huge portrait of Jesus which is something Like 10ft x 10 ft.

The best place ever!

I recently made a trip to the Natural History Museum in New York, one of my favorite places to visit and a great place to draw, take photos, and gather inspiration. This place is so full of so many amazing things that it is hard to take it all in at one time. I visited with my good friends Asif and Doug. Unfortunately, we only had 3 hours to tour as much as we could and the place was so packed (this is right before new years) that we couldn't sit and draw at all, but we did take a slew of photos. I'm sure you will be seeing some of these critters appearing in some of my new work.


















All star talent Asif caught in the headlights.

My good friend Doug was also visiting NY at the time. Some of these posted photos are his.
