Six years ago I painted "In space, no one can hear you dream". My good friend Maya Holt as the model. Fast forward we just unlocked a long time dream of mine to be a cover artist for ANALOG - Sci-Fi Magazine. Time to work up a new set of Art Goals! 💙⚔🎨

This came up in the Drawing Jam discussion last night. The original ink drawing of The Plumber Strikes Back. I'll try to find the original sketch. It was ugly and much more penis like. O.o #starwars #mario
