"Unforgettable Milestone"
Luis Bloom - Khristyn - Demaciiio - Darklord Escada - Sheefy McFly
The Idea for this painting was continuously changing up until its production. It started with just
myself (Luis Bloom) and Demaciiio. After recently completing other collaboration works, the
desire to contact inspirations of my career became very strong.
The Covid pandemic has been a tough time for everyone but exchanging canvas between
others or even working in the same room was very hard to set up. The Freedom event held on
June 19th became a crazy opportunity to work on a new piece with Demaciiio, after learning that
Sheefy would be present I decided to ask him to work on something together. Surprisingly he
was all for the idea of working together.
After working through some steps on the collaborative piece with Demaciiio, Sheefy walks to us asking “Do you have a can of black?” I reached into my box and handed it to him and he
started spraying. We watched him work, as he was working Escada (@darklord_escada) setups
up a few feet from the canvas. Demaciiio steps in close to me saying, “We should see if he
would want to work on this too!” I responded in excitement “Yeah bro!”. After asking, Escada
was ready to work! He placed his work immediately after Sheefy finished working. The event
would soon be over but the painting was yet to be finished, after taking the painting back to the
studio, it was our turn! Khristyn and I were ready to finalize the painting adding in the final
touches.
I’ve never seen a painting in Detroit before where 5 Artists came together and created a singular
piece on canvas. It was a huge milestone for me to be a part of something so massive! At that
point I knew what to name the painting, an “Unforgettable Milestone”.

"Multiplayer V"
Luis Bloom X Demaciiio
Demaciiio states “Multiplayer V is a battle between Khris, Luis, and myself. Utilizing a creative exhibition that proves the depths of our craft”.
From Bloom’s perspective this piece feels more like a cooperative adventure, a journey of skill, endurance, style and patience. “I enjoy utilizing older, nostalgia of my past like these characters from Slam Dunk to give a comparison of how strongly I feel about my partnership with my teacher and friend, Khris.”

Nightmare's Infinity
Luis Bloom
The concept in this image shows how humans can attempt to run from complications/issues they can’t find solutions to. This is Bloom’s first entirely abstract piece in six years, since starting the Luis Bloom Collective.
The stickman in this painting is bound by the hip with issues surrounding them, you can see that the hip is an actual infinity symbol. The textured pink box behind them represents the issue (mental issue) they want to escape, not knowing if it may be a good (lighter pink) or bad (darker pink) outcome. The viewer shall notice that all of the pink paint was partially heat dried and pulled with a cloth to give off a sticky/gooey texture. The blue textured ooze located in the bottom right represents the unconscious mind (the creeping voice/instinct) that wants to direct our decisions. Finally the agony, annoyance, and pain is represented by a consistent green spike, “envy, it’s only a thorn in my side”.

"Progression"
Luis Bloom
The ideation of this painting was, is and will be to encourage the viewer. Bloom showcases each step of his learning process throughout his painting career in this piece. The piece symbolizes the beginning of a journey and how we learn/improve as we commit ourselves to it. Encouraging the viewer to start anywhere and teaching them that committing to it will allow them to become better.
With a black background Bloom seeks to highlight this piece step by step starting with the background “BG”. “When I started to paint, the first thing I learned were the brushes. I believe in any craft you can be bound by the tools you use.” The black background of this piece was put on with a thin coating of paint to leave the strokes of brush to the viewer, to show how Bloom taught himself to spread paint on large canvases using an X shaped stroke pattern.
The abstract face placed in the middle of the painting is used to identify the struggle and frustration with ourselves during a learning process. “I was always told that if I mess up, to paint over it. But I always wanted to paint without error, I just want to be that good!”
Finally the woman in blue placed at the top of the painting is a sign of growth and completion. Bloom wanted the owner of the piece to have their own journey and when they felt good aboutu their progress to flip the painting upside-down. Using the phrase “Put that frown upside-down” capturing the Flower (yourself) in bloom and allowing yourself a smile to be happy about how far you’ve come.
