2 Custom Hats (Sorry for bad pictures)

Just finished two customs for a client, got one more to do this week thats about 25% done...on Lids brand blanks, imagery slightly based off of clients themes.

 Gotta tell you, working on hats is a labor of love, after I finish this last custom I may not be doing any more for a while unless anyone wants a custom.

Also....my camera is horrible and dont nearly catch these hats in the details they should be.

Galactivate your Paint!!! Electric Forest Paintings!

First off I want to thank Tribe 13, and especially Andrew Okeefe, and Patrick Sellers for manifesting an amazing live art environment at Electric Forest.  Two and a half weeks before the festival these guys invited both of us (and 5 other painters) to come paint for free at EFF and were given a large vending booth to turn into a visionary live painting gallery.  The music all weekend was on point, but the people and experiences we shared creating art and inspiring others was exponentially inspiring.

Big thanks to Rae Vena, Ashley Foreman, Andy Reed, Michael Garfield, Jared the Lost Sailor Grizzly Ladies man & Chelsea Graeber for sharing out space and making it truly magical.

This first piece was painted with Toubab Crewe, Stephen Marley, and one epic thunder storm.

This piece is sold, but I will have high res poster prints, and super amazing canvas giclee prints available soon.  Feel free to email me at cj@cjaxtheimer.com for info on print prices.  Also look out for this on a Concious Alliance poster soon.

This piece was painted with The New Deal, Emancipator and Cirque de Womp.  A little raunchier than I normally go, but this had some of the best responses to any piece of done before.

This final piece was done with none other than The String Cheese Incident on saturday night of the festival.  This piece is unfinished but should be done early next week for your viewing pleasure.

Electric Forest Prints

Hey everyone I met at EFF.  I asked a lot of you to email me about prints of the big ass + boombox painting (Space woofers).  I am going to get that and the blue painting with the headphones girl photographed tomorrow for both high res canvas giclee prints and cheaper poster prints.  Drop me an email @ cj@cjaxtheimer.com if your interested.  I should have prices soon.  WIll probably be around 15-20 for poster prints and around $125 for giclee prints, which will be super nice stretched canvas prints that will last forever.

I should have all the EFF painting pictures up tomorrow
