Heres a glimpse at a painting that Javier Chavira is or shall I saw was working on...its currently finished!! Its so sick!!! it stands at about 6 feet tall and about 4 feet wide...i took a drawing class at governor state university in the summer under the guidance of Javier..It was alot of fun and I got to see javiers work develop step by step..because his work studio was in the same place as the class!!

Anways thought id share this with you guys, he is working on a series of work to add to this piece..imagine walkin in to a gallery with such huge paintings!! and I dnt need to obviously emphesis the quality and genuity ( i know i cant spell :( ) of his work!! i have said it over n over the guys a bad ass!! jaja
