Paul Thurlby
Nice graphic work by Paul Thurlby. I’ve long admired him as an illustrator, so it’s nice to see him produce larger, stand-alone work on canvas.

Marilyn Minter’s Heavy Metal Paintings
Now this sounds like fun. Marylin Minter’s new finger-printed enamel-on-metal paintings like Heavy Metal and Cheshire were produced in collaboration with Wangechi Mutu, who was asked to don red and Yves Klein blue lipstick and regurgitate gold-flecked paint or splash around in

Norway Sketches by Laura Murphy Frankstone
Norway is a place near the very center of my heart. I think Laura Frankstone’s sketches successfully stir the feelings of anyone who has been there because they hint towards aspects of natural beauty and unique light rather than attempt to capture

Men In The Cities series by Robert Longo, 1979
An old favorite popped into my head this morning as I walked to work. I first saw the Men In The Cities series by Robert Longo in a magazine in 1986 and am pretty sure that was the exact moment

Fluid Abstract Works by I Wayan Sudarsana Yansen
The fluid, organic oil paintings of I Wayan Sudarsana Yansen seem to be slowly changing right in front of your eyes. Look closer and you can just as easily get lost in examining the process. While I hate superficial comparison,

Selected works from LAX, City Nights and Riots series by Peter Alexander
While Peter Alexander is best known for his beautiful resin sculptures, I have always been much more attracted to three specific series of LA-centric paintings and monoprints he created between 1988 and 1995. I think LAX, Riots, and City Nights

Things Taking Shape – Mixed media series by Richard Cook
It’s hard to find much information about Richard Cook, but I really like his mixed media series Things Taking Shape. Cook complicates the photographic subject with bold, contrasting, intrusive objects that make you question whether the simple shapes are conceptually

Hard to Categorize Paintings by Phil Ashcroft
At first, Phil Ashcroft‘s paintings appear as sharp, abstract works. But look at them a little longer and you’ll clearly see a cartoon or comic book style with elements of graffiti emerge. On his site, Ashcroft admits to a heavy

The Human Nature Project by Andy Denzler
Incredible work by Andy Denzler. Understandably, these much blogged about paintings seem to illicit an immediate comparison to Gerhard Richter and damaged videotape. I’ll give that to you on a purely visual basis, but there is an important difference in

Botanical Residue Series by Janet Laurence
A few pieces from the intriguing body of work by Janet Laurence. She often explores the relationship of architecture to the natural world and uses complex alchemical techniques to transfer translucent images and mediums to glass and metal. via tbpdesign.blogspot.com

Yes, &, No, by Richard Pearse
“My art is really heavily influenced by the music I’m inspired by and attempting to create. I think about music in terms of loud and quiet colors, textures and patterns, and to me a lot of these pieces are interpretations

Unrecognizable by Eric Ulrich
Unrecognizable, 108″x36″, Photographs and acrylic on canvas. Based on a Norwegian folk tale my Grandmother used to tell me. Even though it has a sudden and unhappy ending, as a child I begged her to retell the story over and
