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 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:

Art of the day: “Untitled” by Michael Shapcott

Michael is one of the artists that will be in the upcoming show the Creep Machine is curating, “This is the End” at the Alternative Cafe in Monterey, CA. The show opens on March 6th, but I wanted to feature some art from the artists that will be in the show over the next couple of weeks.

This is a new one from Michael, it’s very big at 48″ x 72″ and is acrylic, graphite and oil. I love the colors that he has been using in his latest works, and the skill in his drawings. That ram looks perfect. The piece is for sale as well, and I believe you can just get in touch with Michael via myspace.
