Artist Feature We are excited to feature this talented artist @creative_dexterity ... Here’s what he had to say: I'm excited to be working with TMJ! I love the passion and the family feel, so genuine and real. I can't wait to meet everyone,and I definitely can't wait to try out some sweet sandwiches! The inspiration for this painting was to just create something fun and who doesn't love Marilyn? This piece has been in the works for about 3 years. I had been working on a custom painting for a client when I got the idea. 2. This painting definitely has a grafitti, street art style. I completed this piece using just spray paint and hand cut stencils. 3. Although the piece didn't take 3 years to paint, it progressed over that time. Once I got down to painting, it took about 3 weeks to finish, frame included. My favorite thing about creating art is hard to explain. I'm always thinking about it, thinking about what to paint next! I always have hundreds of ideas floating around in my head. I feel like I need to be making art. It's like therapy for me. I'm definitely inspired by the wonderful His pieces are beautiful We are truly honored to work with you, we can’t wait to see it up at the restaurant! Show him some love in the comment section. ‘‘ Because he definitely deserves it.

We almost posted yesterdays reel of this drawing () with a poll on it to ask if it was too much It’s an effective social media strategy, and it’s fun to get people inolved and engaging with the posts. Here’s how the artist @Nikoopikoo responded. ... Here’s what his voice note said: Art is supposed to be subjective. If we start giving people a voice as to what is permissible and what isn’t I think that would be a mistake. I don’t want to get into something where you have people arguing over what is appropriate and what is not. It’s a touchy subject, a personal opinion. Drop a ‘’ if you couldn’t agree with him MORE Everyone’s a critic right?

Digital Artist Feature Similarity to yesterday’s artist feature, today’s artist is deeply inspired my music! Here’s what she had to say about her pieces ... 1. My pieces are heavily inspired by music. I feel that music is a universal language that connects us as humans, despite our many differences. 2. My portraits are digital illustrations. Although my style as an artist is constantly evolving and has changed in many ways throughout my life, I’ve grown to love the culture of print media. Aside from it simplifying my Art Crawl set up over the years, it creates a platform of art that’s affordable and accessible to everyone. 3. Each piece can take me anywhere from 5-10 hours, depending on the detail and complexity. You can find my art for sale at blondrae3000.com, @gather.floral.events, @thebrowroom.hamont and local crawls/markets once the world allows it again. These are stunning and we’re lucky to have you.
