Two updates coming today. I’ve been painting a lot since moving back to Grand Rapids. Here are some commission pieces I’ve done as well as personal pieces that I’m not ready to part with. The next update will have prices and dimensions for all the paintings I have for sale, new and old.
(this bat painting had a shotglass of dirty water spilled on it and left some unsightly blotches, but i still love it)
I should’ve kept up to date with these, but here are all the paintings, old and new, that are currently for sale.
To purchase, contact vass@ladisputemusic.com with which painting you are interested in.
I have suggested prices listed next to each, but am very willing to haggle/barter/trade. i’d prefer not to have to take paypal but if interested, we can work something out. There are no shipping charges or tax or anything.
Each painting is sold as is, a watercolor painting on watercolor paper with given dimensions, no frame and no clear coat. You are more than welcome to do either of those yourself for longevity.

This post is for three of my friends who are better artists than I am and I sometimes rip them off.
1. Ben Sears
http://www.flickr.com/bensears
Ben drums in a band called Mountain Asleep who rule. His drawings are all over the midwest in the form of shirts and album covers for every band ever. He likes to do gratuitous details; really long curvy things like intestines and a lot of clouds and things. I’m trying not to rip him off anymore.
2. Mez
http://mezxxxartdesign.wordpress.com
Mez makes me embarassed. She is a few years younger than me and way better than me. She lives in Australia and I’ve admittedly never met her but maybe I’ll be in that hemisphere again. Her digital work is very detailed and clean, and her colored pencil work makes me jealous.
3. Matt Barnes
http://www.holysmokesdesign.com
Matt is in the awesome band Bears. Every time we hang out, we share sketchbooks and I get really jealous of his style, then spend the next week or so trying to emulate it. His screen printing is super pro and makes me want to start printing again and wish I wasn’t so lazy. He also always gives me things to make me better and encourage me to keep working.
got to use a scanner today for the first time in forever, so here are some sketches. all in ink and/or pencil. some are for designs, some are just for fun.
in no particular order:
here are all the paintings i did as gifts for my friends this year, excepting one which i already gave and forgot to get a picture of but will get one soon.
also, i appreciate everyone who visits my website, but whoever was mislead here by searching “comadre art” on google, i think you’re looking for juan’s drawings at siqdrugfront.com.
I’m in a hot backroom in Atlanta Georgia and feeling motivated to show off some things I’ve drawn/painted on this tour. Before I do, I’d like to link you to a few blogs that are far better at recounting tour events than mine:
My band, La Dispute, has a website where we post pictures/videos/whatever from the road. It is usually pretty well kept. It is located at http://www.ladisputemusic.com.
My friend, room mate, and now tour manager also recounts tales of adventure on his new blog, Unicorn Blood. He probably has enough embarassing pictures of me by now to bury me, so I’m linking to him in an effort to keep him happy. http://colinmccarthy.wordpress.com.
Lastly, Therefore I Am’s tour manager Erin takes a million photos then takes a long time to sort through them and posts the winners on her website http://erinirerin.blogspot.com/. If she doesn’t link back to me, I’m going to be pissed. If she doesn’t read http://www.BUDSNSUDS.org I will be way more pissed, I bet her a slurpee date that its funny, and I know its funny. 
On with the pictures. Peep these and leave me feedback if you feel compelled. Thank you for continuing to read my blog when sometimes I fail to update it regularly.
shitty cell phone pictures of a few commission paintings and a couple gifts done in my down time at the recording studio. don’t steal them.
co-conspirator Kenny over at SiqShit.com sent me a couple close ups of these paintings and they look really awesome. buy them now http://siqshit.bigcartel.com/.
You can win some prints of mine now at siqshit.com. It’s seriously so easy to enter, go do it. For the people who don’t win, you can always order online at adamxvass.bigcartel.com, and I’ll have prints for sale at the remaining dates of the la dispute wildlife tour, including limited ones for the new York and Chicago shows only. Thanks.
drawings + paintings + ramblings
