Somebody in Queens recently purchased this older painting of RunDMC (on right) but UPS somehow delivered it to the wrong address, so I attempted to recreate it. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq4-KQXF5eq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ssd2t0a8c4br

#blackfriday sale on now at my #etsy (link in bio), and these are Canadian prices, btw, so Americans who want to #impeachtrump can at least ridicule him for < $100 including shipping. Many other new #blackvelvetpainting too. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqh5Vrjlw4k/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uymbbzx78qt8

On this date in 1982, Prince released his fifth album, and my personal favourite of all time, 1999. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpcdp5CF5Np/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4fwqko4yvuky

On this date in 1980, Prince released his 3rd album, and the first great one imo, Dirty Mind. As always, paint has been mixed with the sacred waters of Lake Minnetonka. https://www.instagram.com/p/BorqTY-FlZx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6p4u9s9rc24i

Very stoked to have my Black (Velvet) Sabbath painting hanging up at Ottawa’s pinball and pierogi palace, best live music venue, and overall coolest spot, the @houseoftarg . I’ll be back soon with another #velvetpainting of a favourite metal/punk/rock group for this new joint project. Thanks Targ! #blacksabbath #ozzyosbourne #pinball #pierogi (at Ottawa, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnPNxrjFRWa/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rnu7qq0tljnp

On this date in 2004 I saw Prince in concert for the first, last, and only time. It was the Musicology tour, I was accompanied by my dear friend @stellazdynamite, and the tickets were a generous gift from my parents, intended as a form of apology for the years I was (technically) not allowed to listen to his music. https://www.instagram.com/p/BnHVxKZF0VJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1oh4h2hcmx9gy

Put a few new Trump items on Redbubble. Get yourself a “SAD!” mug or a “FAKE!” miniskirt. You can never have too much independent artist produced anti Trump schwag right? https://www.instagram.com/p/BmltkdvF5Fp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3v991jxz8dbv
