Zine Scene

I just did an image for a zine coming out soon curated by Jordan Goodspeed. I messed up the prompt and did it too small and in color but I loved it and it came out great. Its the sketch for the new painting. Then I did the b/w version for the zine. Long story short: I have been doing art.

Basement Pub is home to an old favoriteW

My dear friend, Willoughby Arevalo brought this awesome mural that I did with Lauren Kinney and Mikey Thoms years ago up with him when he came up for the pizza show. It has been hanging in Willoughby's house ever since it was painted where is was the figure head for a monster themed show and now its at the basement pub, where it will be up for your viewing pleasure. The show is wonderful and the bar is brighter than ever.

There has been much going on

Hello, friends.

Wow the Pizza Show was an awesome success :

Some new sketches and paintings

Hello,
Lots going on in the Luke Forsyth art studio. I can catch you up to speed a little bit.
I was asked to design a t-shirt design for a friends band, Sun Hop Fat. An excellent Oakland Band playing psychedelic afro beat and the band happens to be comprised of many of my very good college friends. you should look them up and go to the face book. There is a picture of the tee shirt below and them some pictures of people wearing the shirts and having a really good time.

Things are gearing up for the pizza show.
We have amazing DJ Mantease set to play some music,
which will be awesome and the vibes will be super posi
The pizza sponsor is in the works and things are looking good.

Here is some art that i threw in the scanner today and a studio shot from inside pony club HQ.
