Yeah so check it. I’ve been itching to do a big collabo all year… and this is the perfect opportunity to get massive. I am doing a 3 man live-painting collaboration w/Trenton Matthews & Tyler Coey sponsored by The Pitch for their Best Of Kansas City 2010 event.
We will be building a temporary easel for a massive 4′x8′ surface comprised of 32 panels of masonite. Each 12″ square foot piece will be for sale when we are done!
I’m gonna spazz once Deftones & Mastadon kick out the sonic vibes.
