So iam:Tristan has been doing these absolutely gorgeous portraits of IAM members (in this case of Courtney) — he’s taking portrait commissions for only $200!!! That’s an amazing price for a custom painting like this, but I wanted to mention that Tristan and I have been talking about doing a full calendar of his paintings for BMEshop.
Anyway, if you like his paintings as much as I do (I’m definitely coughing up $200 of vanity), you can contact him directly about a commission (here’s a link for non-IAM members). If you’re cool with your painting appearing in the calendar, please let him know that.
Truly gorgeous, but… I know a few artists. How the FUCK does he live on $200 per commission?
No mention of another job on his page, at first glance. (Just being nosey).

He’s designing my chestpiece! Hopefully I’ll be getting some money to him this week once my check clears.

To the Artist,
Congrats you have a pretty special talent there, plenty of detail and depth.

i love tristan’s work. he rules so hard.
If I could sell my work, I’d imagine people would say the same thing, (how can you do it for so little). I’d just feel too bad if I ended up overpricing something.
I have been admiring his work for years now. As soon as I have money he’s getting a lot of it!
holy hell this is amazing!!!!!!!
tristan is an amazing artist and a really sweet guy as well. i hope he gets all the orders he can keep up with!
That’s amazing. Such a great talent 🙂
I really want to get a portrait done for my fiance, and now that I have a link to this artist, I might just do that.
Im so proud of him…Its finally going to fall into his lap like he deserves….

Wow, just wow.
this entry inspired me to do a painting of my own. if anyone cares to look there’s photos in my iam diary entry. not of anyone modified, but still a portrait.
thanks for giving me some well needed inspiration
This is just brilliant. It has such a great texture to it, theres a really strong energy to it. Awsome work! 🙂
you inspired me to paint portraits!! I mean, your painting is absolute gorgeous!!! Keep up your great work!
I wish I could afford to have him paint me! This is amazing.
