Travis Louie’s latest solo show, “The Ghost of Delilah and Other Stories”, opened this Thursday December 2nd at the Los Angeles Gallery 1988. The show consists mainly of drawings, many of which are collaborations with other artists such as Zoetica Ebb, John Park, Ewelina Ferruso, Chet Zar, Molly Crabapple, Fred Harper, Lola, Dave Chung, Greg ‘Craola’ Simkins, and more. I heard that John Cebollero was also one of the artists that Travis collaborated with, but that drawing doesn’t seem to be on the website. It’s a great looking show, and is exciting to see how the artists work comes together. For the most part all of the collaborations look killer.

For the “Feminality Art Show” taking place at Miami’s Independent Thinkers Satellite Fair/Art Basel Casa Wynwood Miami, FL December, Apricot Mantle and his wife Jessica Ward collaborated on a drawing together. “Liberatio of Mia” is 19″ x 15″ colored pencil on illustration board, with Jessica Ward doing the initial drawing and then Apricot adding the colored pencils. This is a beautiful collaboration work, and I do hope they choose to do this again. It’s not surprising that their styles flow so well together.
Over the Holiday, Chet Zar added a bunch of new oil studies to his online shop. So, while many people were fighting over cheap DVD players and anything else Black Friday has to throw at consumers, fans were given the chance to pick up a 5″ x 7″, framed oil study from from Zar. While there is still a few of the studies available, most of them have sold out. I thought I would post them here anyway, so fans can take a look at the studies, and it also gives a great peek into the working process Chet Zar has.
John Cebollero has just finished a series of H.P. Lovecraft drawings that he was working on. One is a killer portrait of the legendary author, and the other two are inspired from the stories of Lovecraft’s most iconic character, Cthulhu. John has previously created Cthulhu works, such as the cover of Boom Studios comic, “Cthulhu Tales #9”. All three drawings are on acid-free bristol. John put them up for auction, so if your interested hit the link.
