Other things...

The biggest has yet to come.

Mood: Tired
Playing: the hell out of my guitar

Hi all!

Painting update: My mum built a studio at the house while I was away at college, so I'll have a decent amount of room to work with in the months I'll be back west. This includes a massive 8x6 easel made from PVC pipes that can hold canvases as large as the wall itself.

So, we've decided to take on the task of constructing the largest canvas I will have ever worked with. We plan to build a frame for it here at the house, and a copy back in Dallas. Two frames for one painting. The size? I am contemplating something anywhere from 5'x10' to 7'x11'.

It will be colossal. I'm headed back north to pick up materials, and she will be getting stuff down here. Hopefully I can begin work on it as early as next week.

Hooray!

Currently in my fourth year of my BFA in Drawing and Painting, and my third year in Art Education at the University of North Texas. I also waste an assload of time producing music. Go me. I apologize for not having better images of current work here.

Painting Sizes:One of the stronger attributes of my paintings is that they are of ungodly size. All of the paintings you see in my gallery feature figures that are the size of the animals they portray, if not much bigger. Note that I have very few paintings that are under the size of 6 feet on one side. Just wanted to make this clear.

Is me! Check out my weird surrealism rock!

Perhaps the reason I don't post as much here.

They are songs that sound like my art. Should be fun.

You can also buy my 7th album "Desolate Road" here--> [link] 14 tracks for 7 bucks!

When I get around to having "Horn Lake" and "Wrecked on 67" remastered, I'll post those too!

Hey! Just making sure you're you're not late to the party, have you heard about the world's smallest animation, A Boy and His Atom?

Otherwise I predict another "why did no-one tell me?!" complaint.

*PuzzledHeartBox Apr 22, 2013

Since ~0rpheo mentioned those songs about "complaints" why not post them on your SoundCloud instead of your youtube account?
I'm sure there are tons of people who'd listen to them - including me

*blackvragor Apr 22, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

I promise I'm still figuring that out! I took down a lot of my comedy videos/songs and people are getting on me about it on Facebook as well. I think I will end up having a "BV makes funny shit" account soon. At least by this summer I hope.

*PuzzledHeartBox Apr 22, 2013

If you're going to make us wait until summer, you better add some more songs to make up for it

*blackvragor Apr 22, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

I'm doing the best I can!!!!

I've been following you for about 3 years and until today I always thought you were a guy.

*blackvragor Mar 20, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

Ha! Oh, well, understandable.

You bastard, I had my monitors set up for mastering and they are at a set volume. I thought the damn apartment was going to be completely reduced to rubble, lol.

=Svataben Mar 27, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

I read that as: "I had my monitors set up for masturbation"

Did a serious double take. o.O

*blackvragor Mar 27, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

Oh yes, I can't get anything done without blasting the audio over professional studio speakers so that the entire complex knows exactly what it is I am doing...

Always be wary of surprises.
