One of the paintings of the “This is the End” show that wasn’t there for the reception, was this one by Creep favorite 8Pussy. The painting got held up in customs, which was horrible as I knew the artist got it out in time and I would have loved to see it in person. It will be at the gallery soon though, and after seeing some of the artists work in person I know that it is amazing. The way that she draws eyes is very inspiring. Its often hard to believe that someone could make something that was this smooth and fluid.

The work from the show is online to view, as well as purchase. This is the End @ Alternative Cafe

Coming this Friday March 6th at the Alternative Cafe in Seaside,CA is a group show that I have had the pleasure of curating. The show is entitled “This is the End”, with all the works in the show being inspired by what the artist feels an “end” is. The show features work by some really amazing artists, 8pussy, Alex Kuno, Andy B Clarkson, Beth Bojarski, Chet Zar, Dan Harding, Dean McDowell, Dave MacDowell, E.Gauger, Ego, Gene Guynn, Jacqueline Gallagher, John Cebollero, Joshua G, Kelly Vivanco, Ken Garduno, Luke Kopycinski, Michael Ryan, Michael Shapcott, Paul Chatem, R.M. Hanson, Sandi Calistro, and Tom Haubrick.

So if you are close enough to stop by, please do. The reception is from 7-9pm. If you are unable to make that night, the work will be on view until April 13th and will makes it way online as well.

Here is a short preview of what is in store:

Todays art of the day is from an artist out of Brussels, Belgium. She goes by the name 8pussy, and has a seriously unique, dynamic style. Her work is really tight and clean, but the colors are intense. This is the kind of art that reaches out and smacks you in the face.

There is so much I love about her work, but the thing that caught me first was the eyes. They look so perfect and real. I’m always waiting for them to start moving around in these images. She came up with a really killer piece for the B Movie show, even though i’ve only seen half of it so far. If you want to see more of her work, head on over to her homepage here:
