BAM! Comin’ rightacha! Say hello to “Dre Tha Barber” an artwork I was commissioned to produce recently. If this painting could talk it’d scream LET’S GOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I was approached by Dre’s aunt to create a special piece that would celebrate his graduation from barber school while also bringing a bit of flare and energy to… Continue reading Say Hello to “Dre Tha Barber”

YouTubin’!
Jeff Lung Art is live on YouTube! Woo hoo! Like, subscribe, share with your friends! A couple of years ago, when I decided to pivot and make art my full time career, the last thing I wanted to do was start a YouTube channel. Knowing social media was a must, I reluctantly jumped on Instagram… Continue reading YouTubin’!
Adapt Or Die
Of all the characteristics that make up the human race, the one most fascinating to me is our ability to adapt. I have experienced this dramatically on several occasions: Losing my freedom. Losing my marriage. Losing my purpose. Adapt or die. Get busy livin’, or get busy dyin’. The alternative to action in both quotes… Continue reading Adapt Or Die
I’ll Be Happy When
My grandma died early Saturday morning. She was 96 years old. She lived a long, blessed life and for that I am grateful. But her departure is also a reminder: death is coming for us all. So when I find myself in a self-placed conditional constraint cycle, ruminating things like I’ll be happy when I… Continue reading I’ll Be Happy When
Summer Vibes
It’s already a thousand degrees in Houston, so it must be summer! Woo hoo! School’s out! Let’s play! If you’re like me, those are the kind of thoughts that come when I reminisce about summertime vibes. For me growing up in central Illinois, summer was an open call for being outdoors all the time! And… Continue reading Summer Vibes
Take My Classes, Take My Workshops!
As spring screeches to a halt, it’s already a thousand degrees in the Houston area, so that means it’s time to retreat indoors and bask in the glory that is 21st century air conditioned living! Yeehaw! Don’t worry, friends, there is plenty to do indoors! In fact, I have several classes and workshops coming up… Continue reading Take My Classes, Take My Workshops!
Vaporwave Vibes
I remember the first time I heard Com Truise. The song was called Brokendate and its multiple layers of auditory degeneration combined with 80s era synths took me back to my youth. It took me to dubbing and redubbing (and re-re-dubbing) tv shows and movies on VHS tapes until no amount of tracking could fix… Continue reading Vaporwave Vibes
Dream, Dream, Dream
Over the last month I have been doing a lot of art festivals. And while it’s exhilarating and fun and exciting and uplifting (for the most part), it’s also a lot of work. I imagine the majority of people don’t realize the amount of work — the physical labor, the logistics, the stress — that… Continue reading Dream, Dream, Dream
There’s Still Hope
Friends, let’s have some real talk: I’m concerned about our youth. If I project the future based on my experiences with young people, I get overwhelmed with worry. A generation of helicopter parenting and babysitting screens has left kids untested and unprepared to deal with the harsh reality of LIFE. Life is hard. To be… Continue reading There’s Still Hope
It Only Takes One Shot
Golf isn’t my God-given gift, but I love to golf. I haven’t done it for a while, because I know my obsessive self. I know that if I get out there and hit just one good shot out of a thousand I’ll be golfing 36 holes a day, seven days a week, chasing after that… Continue reading It Only Takes One Shot
