How my work is spread out when the temperatures outside are below 72 degrees.

Literally every single time I need tracing paper is the one time I can't find it. #artistproblems #ineedastudio #howamithisdisorganized #ohyeaihaveakid #thatstheexcuse #alwaysdisorganized #mess #whereisanything #cleanyourroom #defrancisco #defranciscodesigns (at Fargo, North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzvTq1qBkGA/?igshid=kmztr99bixb5

I was trying to clean the plant shelf but it was all too much for me with this light and these colors. #sidetracked #ineedastudio

Now I got too many of these... It's funny that my greatest fear is to end up floating around endlessly in space and now all I paint is galaxies and galaxy like things.. lol also I need a frame for some of these #art #painting #galaxypainting #galaxy #acrylicpainting #acrylicpaint #ineedastudio #runningoutofwallspace

My little set up takes over our living room quite often... sorry darling! #livingwithanartist #illputitawayipromise #ineedastudio 🙈 #justB (at Vancouver, British Columbia)

...and now my room looks like this. #feathersandglitterallovermybed #ineedastudio

As an artist it's my job to feel and experience emotions past the comfort zone of many. Recently I've been wrestling with the anger of Self hatred and how acts of violence ultimately occur when we lose touch with ourselves as a whole. When we are too caught up in what we look like, rather than how we make people feel. This will be one of those pieces that never end. I feel so liberated after covering myself in jet black ink that will probably stay on my skin for weeks. Just here to say, I know the world is tough. And I know you want to be loved. And although loving yourself may seem like bad advice, it's the only advice. Altering, shaming or throwing hatred onto anyone will only and always cause more hate. Love thyself. Know thyself. And be kind to each other. #ineedastudio #basquiatismyfather
