When I heard the news of the death of this legend, I did as many artists would do, pay tribute. This spaceman was a true inspiration for me growing up, and hope he has found a distant galaxy to explore.

After watching Indie Game: The Movie countless times over the past few years, I decided to pay homage to one of my biggest inspirations. Seeing what this guy went through to achieve major milestones with his work definitely spoke to me as a creative, and I was so saddened when I found out that internet bullying combined with the stress of the video game industry resulted in Phil Fish leaving the industry. It seems the internet just wouldn’t give him a break. I hope to see this incredibly talented and inspirational hero of mine return to the work that I so passionately admire. Thanks for the inspiration Phil, I am eternally grateful.

A portrait of one of my favorite actors, this peiece references one of my favorite movies growing up, Blazing Saddles.

From one of my favorite scenes in the movie. I always felt very connected to the main character, and what he goes through within the movie "High Fidelity".

My closest friends, portrayed as if they were brothers in the "Night's Watch" from Game of Thrones

A portrait of one of my favorite singers from the band "Foster the People". I couldn't stop listening to their album "Supermodel" and figured i'd pay homage to this musician.

My inspiration. My lovely.

I've been a fan of the Alien series for some time now. The character of Ripley is such a strong force to be reconned with in those films, I just had to do a portrait of her. 

A portrait of one of my favorite musicians. I'm still blown away by what Radiohead has done to the music scene, and how consistently they grow and evolve their craft. Definitely an inspiration.

I'm always inspired by the creative, and weird. What Tyler has done in the Hip-hop realm blows me away. I'm a big fan of how he consistently breaks boundaries in music.

The Man. The Legend.

I was inspired to draw this after seeing Sufjan Stevens live. The geometric shapes were references to the backdrop at the show.
