FIRST COMPLETED OIL PAINTING “DREAMERS”
First oil painting; “Dreamers” 2024 - Oil on Unstretched Canvas, approx. 54x85 inches - SOLD!
Hello all! - Very excited to share and announce I have completed my very first oil painting titled; “Dreamers”! - This painting is a very longtime piece in the making, technically being my very first in-studio painting I started back way back in 2016 on a piece of wood, painted over and started again on masonite, and then again restarted and completed here on this canvas after I finished, “St. Alice of Portland”. I knew I needed to learn oils to complete a painting this intricate to achieve the results I wanted including richer depth, better saturation of colors, with more details and lifelike subjects that is nearly impossible to do with acrylics. I have always wanted to paint with oils and I took to it incredibly naturally. It is my passion and I will continue to get better and paint in oils forever.
This piece is now available to purchase either up front in full or with a payment plan including added discount. You can view more details of the piece- HERE (SOLD!)
Thank you!

NEW PAINTINGS - ‘MOMENTS’ 2022 DIPTYCH
Hello!
This is my first news blog and my third painting titled, “MOMENTS”. It’s a diptych made up of two 36x48 canvas that can also work as individual paintings.
I painted this during the beginning of the first NFT hype cycle of early 2021. The character on the left was first created by me on my first iPad painting and minted as my first piece for my most recent NFT collection called Showdeer II. The girl on the right St. Alice of Portland is a character that has been featured in my previous two paintings as well.
There is a lot of symbolism in these pieces as is in all of my works. I won’t give away all secrets but some themes explored are; Doing something you shouldn’t do but do it anyways, epiphanies, feminism, religion and duality. If you want deep explanations of them you can ask me in my discord. There are also homages to some of my favorite artists including Dalí, Van Gogh, Vermeer and Matisse.
You are interested in purchasing these paintings please contact mike@nct-agency.com or place an offer/bid on the NFT (paintings included) next week on Foundation. Follow me on twitter to keep up to date.
Thanks!
