Trying to finish my coffee painting at @pholanternrestaurant I’m using their hot and delicious Vietnamese coffee to finish the robes #baseballsamurai #coffeepainting #coffeeart #coffeeartist #thefoodisgoodtoo 🤗

I was feeling depressed…so I forced myself to go out to @tetonkitchenelmwood and coffee paint a randomly weird scene involving my interpretation of a yokai (demon) and a baseball cap wearing dude in a yukata kimono 🤷🏾‍♀️ #baseballsamurai 😅

Sometimes, I need to write in order to process all this trauma. Sometimes, a Freewrite that interconnects an old song to what’s happening, what’s hurting, and my words. Some portions of my Freewrite are from “Strange Fruit” Written by Lewis Allen. #poetry #freewrite #TreyReed #strangefruit

I meant to say this piece is a double exposure using my upper body lol

DragonCon removed a vendor with all AI generated art…since I was curious…I decided to take one of my graphic design exercises I have my students do and put them for redesign in Meta and 🤣🤣🤣 #lol #dragoncon #noAIart #whyAIdomelikethat 😂

Hi Everyone! Do you want to see my art or watch me do some live coffee painting? If so...check out the list of events I will be at:

As our poetic community mourns another inspirational loss…I hope my little canvas art print reminds everyone that, “sadness is similar to happiness…it comes and it goes.” Sending hugs to everyone 💙

I realize I have artwork in my studio that is kinda DEI…there is so much Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in our art…no matter how you define it…because that’s what makes art…ART
#art #DEI #diversityisart #equityisart #inclusionisart

Had to make double exposure demos for my students in Photoshop. Can you tell which one took 5 minutes, 10 minutes, and 20 minutes to create? 🤔
