  • “Conjoined Triplets” doll by Shain Erin

    Shain Erin has done it again with a new custom made doll. This new one is conjoined triplets, named (left to right): Tanek, Tymon and Tercio and is 10.75″ high. This is part of a new series of works entitled “Exquisite Monsters”, which are inspired by antique wax medical models and specimens representing genetic anomalies, disfigurements and diseases. Of course many of them will be more from imagination such as this one. While there is no real life examples of a disfigurement such as this, there have been paintings that feature the Tricephalous face and even few Romanesque gargoyles. It’s a fascinating subject, one that I have been studying for a while.

  • Eklektikos by Kent Williams @ Evoke Contemporary

    Opening this Thursday, September 2nd is the latest solo show by Kent Williams. Entitled “Eklektikos”, this new exhibition will open at Evoke Contemporary in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The reception is from 6-8pm, so if your around the area make sure to get there early to really check out the paintings. The show features a great blend of large scale works, and some studies with mixed media on paper. The style Williams has in drawing he figure shines through in not only his studies, but the final oil paintings as well. I love the energetic, and slightly messy way that the paint is applied. Take a look at the preview images below, and then head on over to Williams homepage and the galleries page for more images.

    The Play Enterprise and Warhol Museum asked over 20 artist to reinterpret the classic bunny imagery. The show as first shown at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburg, but has been given a second go round at the Rotofugi Gallery.

Many of the paintings look pretty spectacular, and fit the Playboy theme very well. I especially like Glenn Barr’s, Jeremy Fish, Tara McPherson, Keith Weesner, Ken Keirns, and Isabel Samaras all of which are shown below. After you take a look at these, keep your eye on the galleries site for the full show to surface.
