Artist Envy: ...Chris Coleman

A gorgeous digital animation Matt showed us a little while ago. I am so keen for the sound design. So very well executed.

The Magnitude of the Continental Divides from Chris Coleman.

I believe this piece was created through After Effects and took something like two years. Check out some of Coleman's other work at DigitalColeman.com

Artist Envy: ...Gregory Euclide



My recent interest in Josh Keyes led me to Gregory Euclide thanks to the David B. Smith Gallery. Euclide confronts the limiting falsehoods of a flat picture plane and the expectations of sculptural dimension with an exploration of how our bodies truly experience nature and environment. With titles as poetic and expressive as the works themselves, his mixed media landscapes swirl and envelop, permitting the viewer a glimpse into what our senses may be, well, sensing in the intangible space between experience and the perception that our cultural connotations and biases package life into.

Artist Envy: ...Josh Keyes

Currently in love with the post-apocalyptic reclamation reality-suspended paintings of Josh Keyes. I read an interview from Hi-Fructose yesterday but was so busy drooling over the gorgeous imagery that few of the words really sunk in. I do remember, however, that he mentioned something I very much enjoy and find refreshing in terms of post-apocalyptic imagery: there is an element of hope inherent in the paintings.
