Did you paint this on mushrooms

It does elicit that dynamic feel. I bet if I were tripping it would appear to actually move while retaining its original imagery. Like a van Gogh painting.

Not on mush, but have definitely been inspired by them

I love the hyper-real eyes counterpointing the swirling face.

I second this, the eyes look incredible

Quick question. What makes the eyes “hyper-real” instead of just realistic?

For me, the contrast between the eyes and the rest almost magnifies the reality in those eyes. Almost feels like an optical illusion.

I really like this. It's a great pattern, reminds me in a way of the swirling liquid overhead projection lamps from the 70's. Also, the fact you've left the eyes completely normal with that manic gaze - love it !

Really nice piece of work that. Would you mind telling me the size of the canvas ?

Rented an AirBNB in Asheville, NC and spent the night tripping with some friends. The lady who rented us our AirBNB was a painter and I have to say all those reds and greens were fantastic.

This is awesome. It looks so alive. I love the eyes and the way the eyebrows accentuate them.

That’s a strange skin condition. You should go see a dermatologist.

Kidding aside, I love it. I always thought of having a portrait of me hanging on a wall would be ridiculous, but now I want one in that style.

The choice of color is awesome. They blend as a whole to create the propper shading, but the closer you look, the more abstract it becomes. I know very little about art, but i havent seen too many artists that can really capture the essence of psychedelia and you nailed it in such a unique way.

Has a wonderful sense of movement and it flows with a great use of color like a Van Gogh. I love this☺️

Possibly weird comment warning: if you popped up on a dating app with that as one of your profile pictures I would be very curious to meet you! (I am a girl, for reference and I probably have different views from the majority of women out there, but hey).

As I see this homie, I feel your pain and anger. The swirls of life and the existential bullshit of it all. Deep, keep on keeping on, life gets better! 🤙✌️
