I can’t justify why I like her work, but I really do. You can find more of her work at Freight + Volume.

I managed to hook up with a good friend in Vancouver this past week. He always seems to know something everyone else doesn’t. His paintings were hanging at the Contemporary Art Gallery and at the Blanket Gallery.

Juxtapoz has a nice review of the Banksy show in L.A. Brad Pitt showed up. That’s how you know it was worth it.

Just when you think you’re good, you come across the ink work of Beth Horton and decide you’re not again. DAMNIT!

I love how this girl can handle oil paint. The fact that she’s into comics doesn’t hurt either. Check the good n’ lucky.

This guy deserves the props he’s been getting for his deadly figurative paintings. I saw a little interview where he was describing that his work is a kind of urban renaissance. He’s got a show at Axis Contemporary Art in Calgary (100 – 7th Avenue SW) Uma Thurman bought some of his work, so you know he’s good.

Thomas Kinkade ·

”...an allegedly drunken Kinkade heckled illusionists Siegfried & Roy in Las Vegas, cursed a former employee’s wife who came to his aid when he fell off a barstool, and palmed a startled woman’s breasts at a signing party in South Bend, Ind.”

It’s difficult enough painting with my hands. I’ve always admired people who can do paint without arms.

Holy crap. I love this stuff. Her website is Doomferret.com The figurative painter just had an exhibition at The Proposition in NY called Booby Goggles Warning, as the name implicates, there are boobies.

Update: Metal Party.

The master of New Sincerity Art is Brandon Bird. The term New Sincerity has fascinated me as of late and is a term referencing our post-sarcasm Sienfeld culture. I think Jesse Thorn of The Sound of New America came up with it.
