Doggo knows what's up, don't stress!

Snapped a picture of my painting at an art collectors apartment!

Breaking up shapes and playing around. Why waste time many small paintings when one big do trick?

DIY-things and thrift store finds!

Around 170 x 120cm (67 x 47in)

I use an electric saw to cut out the contour from a wood board.

Around 100 x 100cm (or half a standard full size fridge x half a standard full size fridge for the yanks)

Found a perfect spot under these concrete arches. The wagon fits the aesthetic nicely.

Almost everything here is a mix of DIY, thrifted finds, and affordable adjustments. The blue shelving unit is actually just cheap IKEA Billy shelves that we screwed together and plastered over any joints or seams to make it look like one custom piece. Then painted in a color called Berlin blue.

We got the Marcel Breuer chair in the foreground completely for free. We just had to find a nice, sturdy cloth, which my partner then sewed to refresh it.

The weird chair by the easel was another cheap (around 100ish dollars) thrift store find. After doing some research later on, I found out it was actually made by a Swedish architect for a specific project, so it is basically one-of-a-kind, or at least close to it!

Super happy with the result! Anybody else cannibalizing cheap premade stuff to make something personal?

´"Symmetri" drawing on paper and "Beam" acrylic painting on canvas. "Beam" is around 79 x 55 inches, for reference.

Most of what I see here is beautifully figurative, but I am looking for the "chaos" crowd. If you work abstractly with charcoal, please drop a comment or share your work. I would love to see some non-figurative exploration of the medium.
