I am really digging some of the art in the portfolio of Nadine Byrne. The wearable textile sculptures in particular are really intriguing.

I saw that there was a new Depthcore pack out last week and for some reason spaced on posting it. The new series is called ‘Heist’ and you can see it here. I have always been a fan of Depthcore. Sometimes it can be a little hit and miss and some people aren’t always fans of the crazy digital illustration/design set but I love to see people experimenting off the hinges and pushing technology to produce visuals that are just exciting to look at. How could free-thinking creative be bad in any circumstance?

Eric White paints some very detailed and interesting oil paintings. Technically speaking, he is on a level that is not easy to reach.

I am really liking the deconstructive portrait graphite work from San Francisco artist Wesley Burt.

Banksy has updated his site with more of the kind of work that flings shit into the eyes of our overly commercialized, materialistic and hypocritical society. No use trying to cover yourself because no one is safe. Thank you Banksy.

You just have to see the paintings of Nicola Verlato to believe them. I haven’t witnessed something more violent yet beautiful, vivid and wildly imaginative, all generated by hand, in quite a while. The pencil drawings bear witness to the ability to achieve an absolutely amazing image with zero disruption from mind to hand. Amazing.

Ron English recently appeared on CNN to explain his recent art that has appeared in the Manifest Hope show. I had to opportunity to sit down with Ron this year at the Manifest Hope show in Denver during the week of the Democratic National Convention. We were both busy putting back a few drinks that night and we talked about everything from Shepard Fairey, advertising and the government. He is a pretty funny guy and like most of us in the art and design fields, highly opinionated about a lot of different topics. It was a real pleasure to meet him as I have always admired his work. Its great to see him getting such great coverage. He’s worked his ass off for it and deserves it.
