Nice paintings and mixed-media work from Jacob Arden McClure. I was lucky enough to see his work at the Applegate Gallery not too long ago.

Suzanne Treister - Alchemy

Suzanne Treister - Alchemy, originally uploaded by twenty2woblog.

Suzanne Treister is an artist that delivers heavily conceptual works in a wide range of media. Much of her work deals with the history and politics of war and the project above reformats newspaper headlines. Drawing connections in the headlines she constructs a complex hidden alchemy in the modern world. I really need to see these pieces up close to appreciate the complexity and detail. via Phantasmaphile

Seen over at NOTCOT is the work of Brooks Salzwedel. This work really speaks to me and I have designed with a similar aesthetic but I really love the layered resin technique employed here.

Ian Francis creates complex canvases dealing with our modern life. His images are saturated dreams full of current events, celebrities, and war zones.

Antigirl is the portfolio of visual artist Tiphanie Brooke out of Phoenix, AZ. She has a great mixed media collage style but also makes some nice looking books and paper goods. Her prints are a good price if you are itching to collect.

This is some unique styled work from Jason Theilke. His work is multi-layer/ multi-media and his line work is sharp. I am really loving this style, great work Jason.

Another mixed media work, this time by Sean McGaughey. When I first saw his painting I thought it was a Barry McGee, one of my favorite artists. Sean's work is about the dialogue he has while painting. The process of making the painting shows through even after covering up 'mistakes'. The finished product is far from a mistake however.
