Happy New Year Conceptart.org!!!
I like start off the new year with a new finished artwork, every year i make an image based on the catholic religion, as some of you know i have been doing this every year since i was in first grade. This year i chose Jesus as my subject matter, after several image searches i realized there was a place within the digital akashic record for a new interpretation of this global avatar. This is my version. I cant remember the last time i put so much time into a single Image.
I will have a 24x36 inch translucent print version of this image at a show in La jan 9th at the new temple of vision gallery in downtown Los Angeles. Please come out if you are in the area.
..............................................
if this image resonates with you and you would like to spend some analog time hanging out with Jesus, here is a hi rez file i have made available to download and share. http://www.pha-droid.com/JESUS/JESUS__omni.psd

Hello again.
A few words to get you in the mood for the beauty lecture.
You might ask why give a lecture on beauty?
Because I love it.
I have been consciously pursuing the dragon's tail of beauty in my work for the past 3 years. I can say with all confidence that it has improved the value and quality of my life and it gave me something profoundly meaningful to share with the world at large.
It's infectious and I feel compelled to share it with you tomorrow.
Beauty gives more than it takes, and it is my goal to give you as much as I can, and have you take away an experience that inspires you to go forward in your personal investigation into the mystery of beauty.
I want everyone to know how much I honor the support that you continue to bring to this site and I will do my best to make the investment that you make in this opportunity one that adds value to your art and reality.
if this invitation resonates with you please click here to find out how to sign up, join the other beauty seekers from around the world and lets dive deeper into the mystery tomorrow.
Friday may 15th I will be presenting my work is a special exhibition in Toronto at the Meta Gallery,
the pieces in the show will represent the largest and highest quality manifestation of my work ever created,
we have printed the images on Fujiflex prints mounted on Dibond aluminum boxes. its the closes thing you can get to resolution of the original monitor
here's is a rough size comparison to give you an preview of what to expect. the divine mother will be over 2 meters tall
At the opening i will also be giving a Pha_Droid performance
and on Saturday the 16th i will be giving a very special lecture/demonstration/performance . We have rented out a beautiful Catholic cathedral and its ours all night , doors are at 5pm. this lecture is intended to share information that may not be appropriate for forums and cocnepart workshops, topic like spirituality , ayahuasca , entheogens are all fair game, I have just returned from a 3 week spiritual pilgrimage through the amazon and the mountains of Peru and i have a couple stories to share. My intention for this event it to share and enlighten artists on unorthodox means of inspiration, the sacred power of digital art. and the Role that i believe artists have in this strange modern moment of history . seating is limited, suggested donation is 50$ however no earnest seeker will be refused admission for lack of funds.
beyond Toronto
Ive been busy with allot of other projects and traveling as well, here are a few recent works Ive done over the past few months
i created this at the Dallas concept art workshop
and here you can find a tutorial i made from the presentation imagine fx
here is a painting of the !7th Karmapa of Tibet
close up
so stay tuned i have a sketch book worth of drawing to share from my most recent trip to the amazon jungle and mountains of Peru, and after Toronto i will be flying out to Russia to perform in MOSCOW on july 29th for a 24 hour Psy-trance art party!

hi......
So I hope everyone has had a chance to see the instructor list for the dallas reverie workshop .
even i have to marvel at what an over the top accumulation of talent that will be present at that event,
texas is all about bigger, better, faster, harder, and that's what your going to get, its a total digital art enima for your creative being. this may never happen again so take hold of your destiny ,be UNreasonable and make it out to this event, your transformation awaits you.
As always it has been far to long, Ive missed you all very much
its been a wild year so far, Time for an official Pixel Purge..
I’ve been doing as much traveling around the world as possible, taking corel painter and the wacom and live digital painting to new frontiers, despite the occasional perks allot of my time is spent in airports, buses , train stations, tube stations, taxi cabs and security screening lines, carrying up to 140 kilos of gear across borders. All for the sake of art. its not as glamorous as you may think, but its what i need to be doing.
I started of 2009 in Brazil for a massive 12,000-person 9-day trance party on the beach; it was an adventure to say the least,
After Brazil I headed out to Costa Rica for an event called manifesto,
The last international journey out to Australia, I did live painting at the rainbow serpent festival, out of all my travels Australia is on the top of my list, if there are any aussies on the boards drop in and saw hi, I plan on making a trip back there as soon as I can.
Some of this is clearing out 2008 live paintings and the others are some newer works . i feel like i have a folder with hundreds of paintings that are 90% done, sometimes when you leave them alone for a while and check back in on them they are finished....

Stunning work Andrew. They are beautiful. True inspiration. Hope all is well.
Work hard, anything is possible. I know, I know, it’s a very cheesy response but it’s true. Hard work and dedication is the key to reach your dreams. -Bjørn Hurri
- thanks for the awe inspiring, near out of body experience visuals...you are like some other world liaison sent to us from higher beings. I get something new out of every piece every time I view them, so thanks again. I'll be in Dallas fo sho!!!!
wow these have grown so much again, one wonders where else your gonna go with it sometimes and this is a definitive positive answer. Awesome rasied your own bar.
yo. You know how much I love these. Specially the one's you worked on in NY.
These are tremendous steps forward on yer journey brother. Btw, your godson says hi. He has two teeth now and jumps around like a frog. Before you know it he'll do drugs with you...count the days...haha
dude, the level of awezomeness in those pieces are unbeleaveble, btw do u only make this kind of abstract pieces now days? whould be kinda cool to see some more, well, figurativestuff in thyle, like characters in a landscape with real perspective n stuff =P some of the pieces here are really close to it, but I think u could amp it up even more.
anyways, awezome work... and why cant u guys have a workshop in europe someday? cause i dont have the monney to come all the way to america =(.
yesterday, God came to me in a dream and told me that if I don't become a comic book artist, he has decreed that I shall instead be a burlesque dancer.
And I said, "But God, nice panties are so expensive!"
And he said, "Welp, I suppose you better shut up and draw."
I like when you combine your drawing skills with your fucked up mish mash of vector shapes. The "pure" trance thingy gets confusing sometime (yet it is interresting and delicate).
LA and san fancisco's are my favourites.
Dear god this is the best update of your work yet and iv seen all the others
every piece is so dynamic and different from the last.
Someday Andrew were gona have a throw down of art but not yet give me like 10 years to keep studying then will mix it up
Keep it fresh and take a break this is an ungodly amount of work
If you see me on FB, or CA Talk to me, never to busy to talk and love to hear from you, chat me up about anything (Music, Games, art, ect)
If anyone is interested in streams or hangouts let me know!
