One of my favorite musicians, captured by one of my favorite photographers, using a backdrop that I painted is a combination of amazing things happening at the same time.

The super talented @questlove by @jason_armond for @latimes_entertainment x @latimes x @sundanceorg.

Backdrop by @texturedhands.✌🏾

I recently had the opportunity to work with one of the best photographers in the industry.His name is @jason_armond and he is a photographer for the @latimes.He is an amazing person and his work speaks for itself.A little while ago he shared a vision of a photo set for the Toronto International Film Festival that would be both one of a kind, and push the boundaries of creativity.That vision required me to paint the largest backdrop I’ve ever created, which was 10ft x 20ft.As you know, my backdrops are pieces of art and they are always created with that in mind.Each brush stroke was made by hand, and after hours and hours the result is beautiful.

Fast forward to today, and I am amazed at the result.I had no idea that it would be used to capture some of my favorite celebrities.This is so cool and it makes it all worth while.

When I originally shared this photo it was from the magazine spread that included this and other amazing photos taken by the amazingly talented Mark Clennon.I wanted to share a better version of the image, because that one did not give it the attention it truly deserved.This company was started as an attempt to support the creative community by providing a resource that could possibly add a little extra flavor to a body of work.It’s amazing to experience where a dream will take you, and it’s also amazing to have the support of the entire community.These backdrops have touched almost all time zones in this country, and some of the most inspiring people have used them and also been photographed in front of them.It is truly an honor to be able to provide such a tool, and I will make sure I keep at it.✌🏾

Now here’s a photo of @miketyson by Mark Clennon in front of one of our backdrops.

In the studio with @rapisamartialart - We spent as much time talking about spirituality and alignment as we did making portraits. That kind of session leaves a mark. Grateful for this one.

Just wrapped a session with Aisha Bowe and I’m still sitting with it.

Rocket scientist. NASA alum. The first African American woman to fly with Blue Origin and the sixth to cross the Kármán line.

The conviction it takes to build a life like that — on your own terms, against whatever stands in the way — is something I have a lot of respect for. I heard just a fraction of her story and it was enough to inspire me to keep pushing forward with my own.

Grateful she trusted me with her portrait. Go look her up. @aishabowe #blueorigin #nasa #astronaut #dcphotographer #elliottodonovan

Something green for you on a Sunday evening.

This one is 5ft x 7ft.

A few new stock backdrops added to the shop.This one is 5ft x 7ft which is not too big and not too small.

I’ll put a link the stories if you’re interested in copping this one for yourself.

Finally got around to making a few stock drops.These are 5ft x 7ft, which is a little smaller than the standard 6ft x 9ft.

Keep an eye out for a few eclectic ones coming in the next few days.In the meantime these are available on the website, and I’ll post a link in the stories.

This photo of @trinity_rodman by @visuallybreanna featuring the new Cherry Blossom kit for the @washingtonspirit is nothing short of amazing.

The request was to paint a cloudy background on a 10ft x 15ft canvas, and that backdrop you see is the result.This is such a cool photo and the set is awesome.

Of course @giannasnapped on this amazing photo of @england_likethecountry.

Sometimes the paint bleeds through our backdrops and makes the back side really cool.I guess you can say it’s the back of the back.

This stunning image of @sokanista by @filmmatic_frames is nothing short of amazing.Especially when it’s in front of one of our custom backdrops.
