THROW SOME GLITTER. MAKE IT RAIN
I feel sick. Physically sick when I look at work like this. Minjae Lee is a 22 year old painter from South Korea and his work is so fucking amazing that it makes me want to sit in a dark room and cry because I'll never be this good. For real though? 22? That's only a year older than I am and there's no way in hell I could pull this kind of amazingness out of my arse.

So if you want to feel like crap, click the image for more sickeningly awesome work. If I don't post again for a while, it's because I'm kinda pondering suicide.

DUNZO.
Figured I'd put up my final piece from the 'Kate' project.  Like I said, I am planning to put up all my sketchbook work too, I'm just trying to figure out a way to do it without bombarding you with like a bajillion pictures to scroll through. But it's coming, I promise.

I made my own canvas which is something I'd never done before, I'm glad you can't see the back from the image because it's a fricking hot mess of staples and shit.  But it looks good from the front. I used image maker to transfer an illustration onto the canvas and then created the background using decoupage with old issues of The Daily Mirror. I wasn't going to write on it initially, but it looked like it was missing something so I scrawled 'What Would Kate Do?' on it with my mum's Elizabeth Arden lipstick... fucking it up in the process.
