starting the next one!

i did some Photoshop processing on this reference image to help me push the colours using the gouache palette i have.

For these, I've been doing an underpainting of big colour washes, and in gouache that can be dangerous - water will lift paint back up off the page and it could contaminate the layers I'll put on top, which is the opposite of the stark contrast I'm hoping to achieve. So after my underpainting had dried completely, I put on a thin wash of transparent watercolour ground, and I'm delighted to say it's working like magic! No lifting or contaminating or colours from the underpainting into the actual painting 🤘🤘

PARTYNEXTDOOR RELEASES HIGHLY ANTICIPATED ALBUM PARTYNEXTDOOR 4 (P4)

Contemporary R&B superstar PartyNextDoor releases his highly anticipated album PARTYNEXTDOOR 4 (P4). The 14-track album showcases PartyNextDoor’s intoxicating vocals blended with hypnotic trap production. In addition to writing and singing on all of the tracks, Party serves as a producer on the majority of the album.

To accompany P4, PartyNextDoor also releases the music video for the dancehall-infused track “F o r  C e r t a i n.” Directed by Edgar Daniel, the sultry visual picks up where the “R e a l W o m a n” music video left off.

Of the new album, PartyNextDoor adds, “I want my fans to experience this album in a way that allows them to take exactly what they need from it. Whatever they are going through... relationships, whatever it is - when they listen to this album, they can use my stories to learn from and relate to.”

PARTYNEXTDOOR 4 (P4) features previously released tracks, including “H e r O l d F r i e n d s,” “R e s e n t m e n t,” “R e a l W o m a n,” and “L o s e M y M i n d.” This year, PartyNextDoor returned to the festival circuit and performed at SXSW, Rolling Loud California and Australia’s Souled Out festival. The Billboard cover star will also take the stage at Broccoli City Festival in July.

With 2024 marking the 10-year anniversary of PARTYNEXTDOOR 2, fans continue to celebrate PartyNextDoor’s discography; the sped-up version of “Her Way” became 2023’s #1 track on TikTok Canada and #3 track on TikTok USA.

There’s something about Haviah Mighty’s voice that always takes me out. It’s magical. She’s such a talented artist — next level. Definitely one of Toronto’s best artists in 2022.

This song is a great lyrically, has moments that are tongue in cheek, she shows some vocal dexterity, sings, gets into her R&B bag. It’s so good.

Shad comes in and flows so effortlessly. It’s beautiful. The collaboration — the Yin and Yang vibes, the male and female energy speaking to each other, sometimes about each other, at each other, never over each other, cleanly sharing the space. It’s amazing.

My favourite listen of the day!

Finished this piece! Referencing another of Filip Mroz's gorgeous Toronto streetscapes (did he take this out the front window of his car???) and indulging in a lot of nostalgia for king street of yore and streetcars of yore and so forth.

Also, that cobalt blue sky! One of my absolute favourite types of light, everything is so richly saturated and yet values are much subtler. Pure magic.

ART PRACTICE

Texture is an important component to my art practice and hints at the unspeakable stories that lie underneath the surface of both the art and the artist.

The geometric patterns in this work illustrate the range of movement associated with the process—sharp edges colliding, shattering and realigning— and allude to the ways that oppressed groups might eventually break through.

12AM Releases Emotionally Charged Single "Over You” Out Now 

Toronto-based artist 12AM, known for his lyricism and rhythmic pop sound, has unveiled his latest track, "Over You," today. The track follows the November 2023 release of, "Next To You," produced by the acclaimed Tyler Dopps (charlieonafriday, Lil Tjay, Macklemore).  

"Over You" delves into the complexities of heartbreak and the struggle to move on after the end of a relationship. The song opens with sentimental guitar strumming, setting the mood for the song’s journey exploring the fear of loneliness post-breakup. 

12AM questions it all in the chorus, singing, "You say that it's over, but how the f*ck do I get over you?”  

Speaking about the inspiration behind the song’s creation, 12AM says, “‘Over You’ comes from a place where even when a relationship ends you never truly get over that person. No matter what you’ll always have that love for that person even through the hard times.”

This release follows the success of 12AM’s previous releases like “Voices,” which racked up over 7 million streams, “Hollywood” that climbed to #25 on Billboard’s CHR Top 40 and “Showgirls,” his collaboration with Pressa and Tyla Yaweh that amassed over 3 million streams. Today, 12AM adds to his impressive catalogue with the release of "Over You” further showcasing his willingness to be vulnerable in creating relatable, impactful music.
