Nicola Verlato

Van Arno- Medusa Infested

Nicola Verlato-Mothers 2

I really try to post artists that really grab my attention...Nicola paintings are amazing in composition and movement...I have always admired painters that put the time and energy into oil...Although there is an amazing school of acrylic painters...I've always felt that acrylic lacked a luminescence that oil paintings carried...Nicola's paintings remind me of Van Arno's...But I think it's just becasue they both carry the same theatrical quality.

"SIGMAR POLKE"

The Illusionist-Sigmar Polke

Untitled-Sigmar Polke

So going through one of my daily blogs I happened to come onto a posting of my new favortie artist Sigmar Polke, via www.thehundreds.com. These are fantastic paintings, this guy blows my mind because he has transcended his medium. It speaks alot about the dedication to innovation and craft...Kudos Sigmar Polke you've made a lifelong fan of me...These are just two of the ones I fell in love with....

"I received my first Mail Order Bride"

So I received a very interesting email the other day through my Artst.com account which is weird cause it had absolutely nothing to do with any of my art or anything about me...When answering the email, I thought it could possibly be a gallery rep. So with no hesitation I replied back with great curiosity. the email i got back was some sort of Mail Order bride type shit...LOL! Shit even came with a picture she just wasn't my type, If I get a mail order bride its definitely going to be one of those hairy ass Scandinavian women...That can bench press me, and kill a bear with her bare hands.

The Response to my inquiry:

"Hello My Dear.How is everything? i know it's all good .i am excited to read from you today .My dear as i told you in my last mail ,My name is Faith Aliyu, an ivorien in West Africa.Presently I am residing in the refugee camp here in Dakar Senegal,as a result of the Civil war going on in my country .I am a beautifully loving young girl of 23 years ,about 5'8" tall .Slim fit ,weighing about 61 kg.My father Dr Patric Aliyu was a successful business man,he deals on Gold and Diamond before the rebels attacked our house one evening and kill him with my mother and my only brother .I'm the only one alive from the family.By the grace of God I made my way to a near by country where I'm presently living as a refugee.My dear,I come in this site search for love and care which I have not gotten for a very long time since I lost my family members.I here by believe that time to come you will be my side and i will show you unreserved love respect through out my time.Dear ,I want to know more about you,your real name,Your real country,Your occupation,your age your hobbies and what you are doing presently .My hobbies are swimming ,dancing,singing,reading,watching movies and discussing politics .I have attached my pictures.In y next mail I will tell you more about my self.I waiting to your lovely reply with impatience.Yours Forever in Love .Faith"

"Cheech the Wizard"

Vaughn and Mark Bode have to be some of the most influential underground comic book artists to date...Having blessed early graffiti artists with a foundation for characters such as the Cheech the Wizard, Da Lizards, and The Bode Broads. I would eventually like to get Cheech the Wizard tattood some were on my body...He has always been one of my favorite characters next to Danger Mouse who is my all time favorite.

I might have mentioned how much I love Rob Roy, but its official he is ISH!!! He has been my steady ear candy for the past few weeks and I finally got the chance to listen to most of his album and I have to say DUVAl and KING MAGICIAN WARRIOR LOVER are my favorites. But for the most part the CD is mind blowing, so quit sleeping on it and go out and find out for yourself...

"Meet Ernest"

"The Ghost of Serpent's Spine" is my first large scale Scratchbord that will be part of a series incapsulating the idea of envoking the spirits of yesteryear's youth indulging in the devil's gasoline. These teens having all fallen victim to fatal car crashes. All brought on by the pursuit of fame and glory through the means pushing their cars limits on some of the most dangerous roads the devil has created. What you see is the envitable result, DEATH...
