❤️🔥 I would hate to see you burn out, little star.
Digital illustration of a square matchbox with four matches, with one missing from the box. Text reads, ‘you can’t light yourself on fire to keep someone else warm.’
Steven Spazuk paints with fire in a technique he refers to as “fumage,” reinventing traditional artistic approaches. Since 2001, Spazuk has refined this skill – creating exquisitely vivid figures and animals from the residue of his candle’s brushstrokes.
In August and September 2020, massive, fast-moving wildfires destroyed thousands of homes and displaced tens of thousands of people across Oregon, Washington, and California. This installation serves as a memorial for those who lost their lives, a tribute to those who worked tirelessly to prevent a much larger loss of life, and a testament to all who suffered through the flames and emerged on the other side. Each charred leaf commemorates a lost life.

My art - "AKASHA" from the 2002 movie, "QUEEN OF THE DAMNED." The character, who is the malevolent mother of all vampires, was played by the Aaliyah Haughton. Hand sketched, mixed digial art medium, overlaying textures, with photoshop coloring; no AI for this pic. "Oh really? Is that what you're going to do?"
