This video has nothing to do with the Vvff just found it neat.

A few new ones from Mike Egan.

Mike Egan's show opens here July 10th. Here is Mike's statement.

My paintings are created using acrylic paint, shellac and sandpaper and are made on wood panels and stretched canvases.

The subject matter in my work tends to deal with life, death and religion. I've been working in funeral homes for the last five years and I've become quite familiar with all three subjects. Through funerals we tend to celebrate not only someone dying but we also celebrate that persons life. Through religion we hope that our loved ones are in a better place, that they are not suffering anymore.

My inspiration comes from many different sources: The German Expressionists, stained glass windows, Halloween, Southern folk art, funeral homes, horror films, music, lowbrow/outsider art, Religious icons, etc.

I am always adding and subtracting ideas and colors to my work to make each painting have it's own story. I like to think that each painting is in some way a good bye to somebody who passed away. A funeral portrait.

Mike also did the new Hawthorne Heights album cover!

The world needs more Scott Weaver's.

Russell Shoemaker.

Russell does some really amazing work, and in May 2011 him and his work will be in Philadelphia at The Slingluff Gallery. Take a look around his site, really great work.

New work up on the site.....

Thanks

A rainy day in Nyc to see The Colbert Report.

This was the show that we went to see.

Sg. What inspired you when you first got into art?

Cw. I've been drawing for as long as I can remember. When I was a kid, I used to scribble all over the pictures in my storybooks. Then I was obsessed with drawing animals, particularly lions, dolphins, and unicorns. After that, I took all of the art classes that I could in high school, and by the time I was 15 or 16 I realized that I wouldn't be happy unless I was making art for the rest of my life, and for a long time I was convinced that I wanted to be a tattoo artist. Anyway, I guess I'm saying that there wasn't a defining point of inspiration for "getting into" art. It seems as though it's always been there.

Sg. Do you still find inspiration in this?

Cw. Taking from my first point above (the obsession with drawing animals) -- definitely. Other creatures have always been fascinating to me. Everything from their shapes, movements, habits, and natural purity. And although I no longer want to be a tattoo artist, I'm still inspired by tattooists/tattoos, which is probably obvious.

Sg. Any other shows coming up that you would like to let the views know about?

Cw. I think I may take a break from gallery shows for a while. I don't have anything definite booked for the near future, and for now I'm going to try and dip into other ventures. I'm opening up a new Etsy shop that will have paper goods featuring my drawings, as well as some prints.

Sg. Anything else that you would like to add?

Cw. Can I be cheesy? I'm going to be cheesy. Thank you. To the Slingluffs, to every gallery that's ever taken a chance on me, to every artist that I've shown with and who has inspired me, and especially to everyone that follows my work and takes the time to write me and comes to my shows. You are all lovely, and while drawing itself makes me happy, you make it even better.

Kevin Margitich.

Sg. What inspired you first got into art?

Km. I think that it was the Public Enemy Logo. I remember I was in like 5th grade and I would sketch that thing over and over. When I think about it I'm pretty sure that it was album art in general that got me going whether I was trying to mimic images or lettering.

Sg. Do you still find inspiration in this?

Km. Inspiration now is basically everywhere for me. It seems that everyone I am close to is inspiring somehow, whether it be through art, storytelling, brewing or farming.

Sg. Any other shows coming up that you would like to let the viewers know about?

Km. Nothing else this year. I was in a 3 person show out in Seattle in January at Bluebottle Art Gallery and a handful of others toward the end of 2009. I have been pretty stoked about the show here since last year. It's a bit of a break, though, from my straight-up animal portraits. These paintings are a bit more technical and a lot more researched.

Sg. Anything else that you would like to add?

Km. A big thanks to The Slingluff Gallery and Cassandra Warren. I also want to give a huge thanks to The Ghost Tour of Philadelphia from where I drew most of the inspiration for this show.
