Commission Finished & @Gummifrau18 Collab

Added 2022-04-06 20:00:23 +0000 UTC

So, I've FINALLY finished the '100% confidential' commission I was working on* and have immediately turned my attention to my next piece.

This I want to be a quick one as it'll likely be the piece that marks my first anniversary of this project. (And since I need a palate cleanser after a very technically demanding piece that had 7 people in it, a variety of complex outfits and props in a very specific setting!)

I've begun sketching and hopefully will be able to share those with you in the coming days.

And to give you a taste of where I'm headed next would be (if you haven't already) to check out @Gummifrau18's posts on Twitter.

Over the past year her daily posts have filled me with joy - she takes striking images (usually from early 2000s fetish photographers) and pairs them with cleverly chosen quotations.

Whip-smart, classy and adding an interesting commentary on some delightfully extreme images.

We've chatted several times over the past year and I suggested a fun collaboration - pick out one of her favourite quotes for me and see what I can make of it in the form of a painting.

So this is the quote she chose...

“I wake up and I see the face of the devil and I ask her, "What time is it?" and she says, 'How much time do you want?' " - Diamanda Galas

I've got a few ideas - back as soon as I can with some sketches...

Thanks everyone for your patience on this one

It's good to be back to normal (or at least as normal as I ever get)

Wishing you all the very best

*And I have more of an idea of how this commission is going to be used - so maybe, just maybe I'll be able to share it and the various work-in-progress pics with you in the future - just don't hold your breath...
