The Paintings of Dave MacDowell
I had mentioned Dave just moments ago and realized his vast body of trip-tastic work deserved it’s own entry. The six I pulled here are my personal favorites…you can see loads more on his website.
Rest in peace, John. :(

What You See Might Not Be Real
Chen Wenling is a contemporary Chinese sculptor currently based in Beijing. The sculpture above – entitled ‘What You See Might Not Be Real’ – was created in response to the global financial crisis. The bull represents Wall Street, while the devil pinned to the wall portrays Bernard Madoff, operator of the largest ponzi scheme in history.
I love not only the imagery and subject matter Chen tackles but also the scale on which he creates it. In this case, bigger is definitely better.

The Art of Pat Perry
Pat Perry is my kind of illustrator/artist. His work is playful, trippy, strange and colorful with a generous dose of bizarre for good measure. See more work on his website or blog. If you’re interested in watching him work or are a fan of watching artist time-lapses you’ll definitely need to check this out, too.
