  • Photos: Chris Anthony @ Corey Helford Gallery

    Daily Du Jour has some photos of the Chris Anthony solo show “Venice” that opened up at the Corey Helford Gallery this past week. The show looks great, and from what the gallery site gives impression to, each one of the photos in the show is actually part of an edition. So all of the photos in the show are c-prints that will be sold in limited edition runs of 7. The photos of the reception give you a good idea of what the photos look like all frames up.

    Head on over and check out the show. Chris Anthony Pics @ Daily Du Jour

  • New prints by Ben Templesmith

    The creator of the amazing Wormwood comics, and artist to a whole host of great comic titles, has just added some new prints to his online shop. The prints are printed on demand, 11″ x 17″, 12 point glossy prints. So they are basically poster prints but one of the only ways so far to get some art from Templesmith. There is also a couple of books on the site to get as well.

  • Photos: Todd Schorr “The World We Live In” @ Merry Karnowsky Gallery

    Todd Schorr’s latest solo show “The World We Live In” opened up this past weekend, and from the looks of it was an amazing reception. Red Carpet treatment, paparazzi, celebrities and press only policy when it came to taking pictures. Lucky for all of us fans that couldn’t make it, the folks over at Arrested Motion were there and took a whole mess of photos.

    No word yet on the work being on view at the galleries website. There were also some prints at the show, I hope they pop up online somewhere if they were not sold out at the show.

  • Art of the Day: “The Playboy Mansion” by Antonio Roybal

    Antonio Roybal is an artist out of New Mexico, he is mostly self-taught but also studied with Austrian painter Ernst Fuchs. His work is very surreal and filled with iconographic elements. The painting shown is 22.5″ x 26.5″ egg tempera and oil on wood panel. The painting was done using the mische technique, which is said to be the way the Flemish masters such as Jan Van Eyck painted.

    Antonio put this painting up on his Etsy site so “Instead of selling it at a gallery, I thought I would sell it on here for those who can’t make it to the galleries.”

  • Greg “Craola” Simkins on Sketch Theatre

    It was just a bit ago that the “Art of Sketch Theatre” opened at the Gnomon Gallery and now the site has brought us another video. This new one is from Greg “Craola” Simkins and is his first video for the site.

    Greg is a phenomenal artist, I love watching the character in this one develop out of what looks like nothing more and smudges and highlights. Lets hope that Greg becomes a regular on the site.
