the last hiatus i took, it was because painting started to feel like a job. this time, its for much different reasons.

on may 20th, my dad passed away from a heart attack while riding his motorcycle. painting is and will be the farthest thing from my mind for quite some time.

the 9 foot painting i was working on didnt get much accomplished. the top panel isnt even 1/4th completed, let alone the other 2 panels havent even been gridded out.

i cant say exactly when i will come back. im not going to rush anything. it could be a month like it was last time, or it could be a year.

i will eventually finish the 9 foot tall painting though because it would be what my dad wanted.

i will still be at 64-bit genocide though. so come out and enjoy the show as always. i just wont have as much as a presence there art wise as i did in previous years since i havent painted that many new works since then. i will have another raffle though for paintings since that seemed to make a lot of people happy.

again, thanks to everyone who bought anything off of me ever and i appreciate everyones kind words i get in my inbox on a daily basis.

and if you havent told your mom, dad, sibling or significant other that you loved them today, please do so because there is no guarantee that they will be there tomorrow.
