Don Shull is an 80-something year old folk artist that's been making wood carvings, ridiculous art and whirligigs for friends and families for who knows how long. Fortunately, he agreed to showcase his work with the world with his first ever showing at Elephant Gallery. If you have the chance, go check out his work. If you aren't anywhere close to the area - browse here, here and here. Enjoy!

Nashville Walls Project

posted October 10, 2017 #

I've noticed quite a few massive murals around Nashville lately and wondered if there was some sort of group or arts commission behind them. Turns out, there is. The Nashville Walls Project is bringing local and international artists to town and having them creative massive pieces on willing buildings. This Guido Van Helten piece is absolutely stunning and unbelievably enormous. There are other quality pieces from Chris Zidek, Nathan Brown and Adele Renault to name a few.

It may not seem like much but cities with enormous pieces of art everywhere definitely carry a different feel. Austin is great about it, Philadelphia is rife with them and I've always loved the ESPO mural in Brooklyn, even if it's going away. Hopefully Nashville can continue to step it up and showcase more art of this size.

to deny or write off the idea that there was foreign intervention in our presidential election is to invite the idea of ongoing intervention

I love TVs in restaurants because that way my kids can watch a violent sex crime procedural while we eat sandwiches.

October Horror Jams

posted October 9, 2017 #

Every day for the month of October, Makeup and Vanity Set is making a new song inspired by a specific horror movie and compiling them into this October Horror playlist.

It's too early in the month to be able to pick a favorite but Il Gatto a Nove Code and Black Phillip are certainly frontrunners.

Chad Wys

posted October 9, 2017 #

The work of Chad Wys tends to fuse a lot of classic works of art with contemporary splashes of color and modern art destructive techniques. His Arrangement in Skintones series reduces images to oblique patterns and his Legato series create a simple color palette from an obscured image but it's his Works on Paper that really drew me in. The Romaniticism busts fused with paint daubs and color scratches is can be quite minimal but there's an allure that's hard for me to resist.

Several of his works are available on Society 6 as well. So if you're looking for a canvas print version, you're all set!

Fake Fliers, Nathaniel Russell

Loving this collection of Fake Fliers from artist Nathanial Russell. His fine art and woodcuts are well worth a gander as well but the fliers are such a nice representation of the artists humor and style.

Friday Videos - Oct 6th, 2017

posted October 6, 2017 #

Like it or not, it's October. Which means random ghosts, pumpkin carving and candy corn rules everything around you. There are worse things.

Stranger Things: The Game - Season 2 of Stranger Things is fast approaching and, of course, there's a retro videogame tie-in. I'll be real tho, it doesn't look awful.
Sound Archives 17 - nothing particularly wacky or outrageous here, just some wonderfully done motion graphics.
Untitled Goose Game - speaking of games, this looks great! An indiegame where you play a mischevious goose? Yep.
Austin Rogers: Jeopardy Champ - this guy rides the line between adorable and unbearable. Fortunately, he falls on the side of adorable more often.
Pixel 2 Announcement - I don't share this reaction to the Pixel 2 but I sure do love hearing this. Audio absolutely required.
Harrison Ford, Ryan Gosling lose it in interview - just two dudes cracking up on their press tour. Pretty adorable.
Tom Petty - Don't Do Me Like That (1979 SNL) - the video here is askew to avoid content detection takedowns but it's a solid performance. It's literally impossible to pick a favorite Tom Petty song, he just has way way too many, but this one has always felt great.

Frank Chimero made this Tom Petty playlist and it's real good. I suggest a follow.
