  • Glenn Arthur new work and process

    Californian artist Glenn Arthur has just added some new work to his blog. This new painting “Objects In The Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear” 16″ x20″ acrylic on wood, is a part of his new series entitled “The Ghost And The Banshee”. I also like the fact that he added some process shots of al the stages of the painting. I love when artists do this, as it not only can show you some tricks if your an aspiring artists, but it allows you to see the craftsmanship of the painting we all enjoy.

    Looking at the process shots, you can also clearly see that Glenn rocks with acyclic paints as well as graphite.

  • 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.

  • Kelly Thompson prints 15% off

    New Zealand artist Kelly Thompson is having a sale on prints up until Feb 25th. Wish I got to this one a little earlier, but there is still some time to save 15% on the prints in her online print shop. All of her prints are on fine German etching paper, and it looks like all of them are limited to only 10.

    I love the mixture of rendered faces and the flat, graphic elements that she adds to each one. Head on over and see all the prints she has, and make sure you check out the rest of Kelly’s work while your at.

  • Sylvia Ji prints available in Europe at Fine Grime Publishing

    Sylvia is busy painting away for her solo show at the Corey Helford Gallery this coming April 11th. I’ll be posting a preview of the show when it gets closer.

    In the meantime it looks as though fans located in the UK, and pretty much all over Europe can now score a couple of prints from Fine Grime Publishing located in Bath, England.
    The two prints are “Delfina y Maria” and “Rose Catrina”. Both are large format prints and are signed and numbered in an edition of 50.
