For those asking. The Matterhorn still exists in a highly diminished state. Tomorrow could be your lucky day!

Real action movie pet peeve: kill hundreds of lackeys who are just security hired to do a job and then get to the dude who caused it all and take him in alive
One last one! My first painting on Denim featuring Tin Tin and Boba Fett. I have been thinking about turning this one into a pin. What say YOU?
I think one of my more under-appreciated paintings featuring Beyonce / Star Wars. I spent so much time getting that millenium falcon interior working! Also proud to capture 3 different Beyonce eras that matched up with those 3 characters.
Sending all the good vibes over to Bruce Campbell who was a huge part of my childhood with the Evil Dead franchise and Briscoe County Jr. Fuck cancer! We collaborated on this piece (he did the signature and the stink lines) with Babies / Evil Dead 2.
Speaking of Music and Star Wars, what about this Fender Guitars / Star Wars painting? A lot of detailing and thought went into all the choices here. I really love that with all these Star Wars paintings, there's hardly a repeated character. There's even so many I have yet to paint!
Here's an early Star Wars painting. It's Star Wars / Pizza and can you get any more classic than that? I don't think so.
These were really deep cuts from two of the biggest franchises of all time. It's Star Wars (with Kashyyyk the Wookiee planet) and Pokemon (with Lucario and Infernape). We got real specific on these!
ok, what about the last Star Wars painting I did (before this upcoming one). I love it when people get weird with me and this Star Wars / Weddings painting fits the bill! Obi Wan makes such a beautiful bride and that first dance!
One of my favorite Star Wars characters Grand Admiral Thrawn is here combined with Tai Chi for a real moment of zen before he trashes all your heros. Can't wait for Ashoka season 2.
Good day to go downhill fast? Two Thangs: Fear of a Black Hat / Rad
Well, I've got a new Star Wars painting coming your way soon SO let's see all my Star Wars paintings! This is the first one I ever made featuring Star Wars / Game of Thrones. YODOR!
Speaking of "cartoon surrealism" I think this Sex in the City / Steak painting is where I've pushed that idea the farthest (so far). I just went back and repainted Samantha and I'm way happier with it. Staring at a painting for a year will lead you to dissect where you can improve it.
The Gilgal Sculpture park in SLC is a really amazing little visit. Some wonderful and weird finds all carved out of stone.
Shot out to the official Gene Roddenberry account that started following me! I love Star Trek and I've been honored to be able to make a couple paintings in that universe. This is my SECOND combination of Star Trek and Dogs.
Hi! I make custom paintings for people. This is one of the many reasons I love doing it. Order your own Two Thangs painting today!
This Nutcracker / Ballet definitely fits within my "cartoon surrealism" work. Movement depicted as physical brushstrokes, sections treated in a cartoonish description set against sections depicted with more realism and an emphasis on bright color contrasts. One of my favorites.
I pass by this sculpture at Midway when I'm traveling through Chicago. Listen, artists know what they're doing. When you see something from afar and you think "hey, that looks like a guy with a giant boner" but then you get up close and instead "oh, that's just his leg": well, that was intended.
A new painting! Yes, it's my #xena #warriorprincess / #drquinn #medicinewoman painting and I love this one so much. So glad it was picked up out of my sketch sale from the beginning of the year.
My Justice League / Dental Hygiene series definitely played with the cartoon surrealism idea. This one just had touches of realism thrown into crazy painterly comic book action. Also, brush ya teeth!
For a gallery show back in 2023, I wanted to show that two ideas could be combined in different ways so I asked my Patreons about which idea I should revisit. We ended up with the Otter / Octopus 2 seen here. In the first painting they battled but here they're BFFS
Sometimes I really hit on something fun in a painting and the beauty of my job where I make all these paintings is that I often get to revisit the idea down the road. This Rhino / Rainbows painting was one where I started playing with a sort of cartoon surrealism.
For those of you that entered the Matterhorn melt date contest, welp, that's why gambling is fun! We got a "couple" extra inches added. Looks like Ethan's June guess might be on the money. Entries have been closed so no switchies!
It's a BRAND NEW PAINTING! Here we have #xena #warriorprincess and #drquinn #medicinewoman in the Colorado hills just posing for a photograph. They're just lifelong friends with some flushed cheeks! Really love how this painting came out.
Here's another painting where I feel like I was working on what I'm dubbing "cartoon surrealism" it's the Ol Dirty Bastard / Dr. Mario painting AKA Doctor Dirt. #wutangisforthechildren
When I made this Ru Paul / Alien painting back in 2015, I went and interviewed a drag queen friend of mine about what would be shooting out of John Hurt. They said hair extensions, fake nails and fake eyelashes.
I know Carol was a real cornerstone movie for a lot of people. I'm glad that I got to capture Blanchette with Dean Winchester here in the censored version of the Carol / Supernatural bedroom painting.
I revisited this Sex in the City / Steaks painting to revise some thing that were bothering me. If I could, I'd take my paintings, let them set for a year and hop back into them if I saw anything differently. I often get caught up in the parts I love but then get a wider vision later. 143 Samantha
I love learning about things through Two Thangs and Cat Power was one I learned about. Here she is paired up with the Showbox Market which is about as iconic music venue as Seattle has.
I make YOU the painting of your dreams! This is a one of a kind acrylic on canvas painting crafted just for you. It's cheap as hell for the amount of work that goes into it. Hit me up today! #originalart #custompainting #buylocal
