Viciousiris

This guy. I love so fu***ng much.

The last year has been absolutely crazy. Ups and downs in life, but every second with him is a gift I never thought I'd have.

Today is is birthday, which is a reminder of how lucky I am for him to be in my life. Birthday number 3 of many in our journey into infinity together.

Happy birthday my love, my life partner, my everything,

I suppose I should post the tank that I painted to match my entry for the Trippy Ten at .

Both are available for purchase.

My favorite project to date.

I was invited by to participate in their yearly helmet art show, "Trippy Ten." For obvious reasons I have always wanted to participate in this show as I try to create the previously unseen, as nothing is more trippy to me than something new. Thank you for having me.

I took a lot of risks on this helmet:
-These patterns are one continuous image, bridging over gaps and contouring over compound curves.
-The positive space of those patterns consists of .a.gold.leaf genuine silver leaf, with a sulphur solution to patina the surface into varied iridescent and rainbow hues.
-The negative space is a glitch field; careful airbrushing to achieve the look of being unsettled in space.

One shoe-in of the process was using this STUNNING basecoat. What a gorgeous foundation.

Special shout out to for the chrome effect on the visor!

The first person who can find the larger image embedded in the pattern should MESSAGE ME and I'll send you a free gift!
