Description: This was the painting that came after Agnit, the one that made me realize, “Oh…I can actually paint.” But instead of creating something for a contest, I wanted to make something for me, something that blended my weird sense of humor, my overworked brain, and my love for SpongeBob. So I pulled in Oliver, one of my Freakish Figure Characters, to say what I really needed to hear: “Don’t Forget To Live.” At the time, I was in one of those obsessive grind-mode chapters, working nonstop, sacrificing sleep, time with friends, time with family, everything, all for this dream. And when I finally looked up, I realized I was basically living off of delivery food, quick meals, and snacks that required zero energy to make but definitely took a toll. So I used Krabby Patties, because painting them is dope as heck, but also because they became this weird symbol of the obsessive life I was living and the dream life I was putting on pause. The social part. The human part. This piece is a reminder to enjoy the journey. To step outside. To eat with people. Not always with Minecraft lets play in the background. If you know you know. To laugh more. The dream will still be there when you get home, and so will your life. Don’t forget to live.
