Just finished the Rick & Morty art commission from my wonderful friend Nery! It was such a fun project and I was surprised how into it I was. I guess it’s a good breath of fresh air from the usual stuff I paint, and it is structured enough that I have a goal/concept in mind. I also had a lot of help from his selected music playlist that I requested to guide my work. Man, I gotta say I learn so much about people from the things they enjoy. I know music (and food) bring people together, so it’s no wonder these are the first things I ask about when I first meet someone.
Now, some details about this recent work. I wanted to do a sci-fi collaboration between Doctor Who and Rick & Morty, so I decided to focus on some of the distinct features of each show. Early on, I knew I needed to have the color green in there to symbolize the pervasive use of this color in the time travel portals that pop out in the Rick & Morty show. From there I decided that I wanted to focus on something related to time-traveling, so I decided to create some sort of portal. In Series 5 of the new Doctor Who series (starring Matt Smith), they introduced the idea of a “crack in the universe” that pervades thru space and time. I really liked the Eleventh doctor so I decided to just go for it. Nery suggested a rendition of the “Starry Night” by Van Gogh, and I took the idea further by creating a scene that signified the regeneration of a time Lord to a new body, all taking place on an otherwise starry, starry night and witnessed by (tiny) Rick & Morty from the crack in the universe. 
Everyone else–I’m now taking new art commissions! Send me a message or email on my website. 
I get all of my art supplies conveniently via Amazon. Having all of my art supply and marketing needs delivered right to my front door saves me a lot of time from having to go to multiple places after a full day of work. With capabilities to compare costs of similar items from different brands of acrylic paint, reading customer reviews on paintbrushes, and ratings on high quality painting easels, Amazon definitely makes it easier for me to make my work-life balance possible. If you are an aspiring artist, I highly recommend Amazon.com for all your art supply needs for the best deals!
