Interview with Eve Skylar: A Visual Story-Teller

"At the Epoch of Eras: Utopian Marketplace" by Eve Skylar

"At the Epoch of Eras: Utopian Marketplace" by Eve Skylar

“‘Broken’ and ‘hope’ are the two strong words to describe the Rusted Souls’ world: broken robots, broken people, broken ideals, and the thing that persevered was the people’s hope for the future.”  -Eve Skylar

Eve Skylar, one of our featured artists and top-sellers from the current exhibition, gave us some comical and in-depth answers during her interview:

Can you talk a little bit about your work in this exhibit and how it relates to “The Rusted Souls“?

When James proposed “The Rusted Souls” as a concept art themed show, I was thrilled to see how the different worlds might look like: totalitarian, utopian, and dystopian states. Having worked as a production designer and concept artist on
animated films, I tend to see paintings through the cinematic lens. So I wanted to create a narrative of the Rusted Souls environments through a progression of shapes and color.

What kind of artist do you consider yourself?

I am a visual story-teller/artist. I tell stories through my art.

Meet Gaby: Leader of The Rusted Souls

Who is Gaby?

Gaby is an orphaned 12-year-old girl surviving in a future apocalyptic world where robots (the Mechs) slaughter and retrain any humans against them. Orphaned when her two freedom fighter parents were killed, Gaby then stumbled on a refugee camp. There she was mentored by an elderly woman with the abilities to disrupt time and space. Now with her extra-sensory powers, martial arts training and her troop, The Rusted Souls, Gaby plans to lead humanity back from the darkness and kill all robots in her way!

“OUTSIDE IN 2″ Artist Spotlight: Wand

One of the show stoppers of “Outside In 2“  is Wand.  He was able to capture movement and airiness in his whimsical pieces, a tough job to accomplish with spray paint.  We sat down with him and got in his head.

OUTSIDE IN

Are you tired of getting blown around in this wind and rain? Are you soaked to your socks, trying to check out the new murals by Rime, Wand, Yes2, and Keb?


HTML tutorial

Don’t sweat! Our current exhibition “Outside In” brings the murals indoors!

For the 2nd time, every cut, every fade, each line, stroke, flare, doo-dad, polka dot, bit, arrow; everything is so close you can smell it, you can almost touch it, we don’t condone the tasting of any art, but as you can see it is close enough for you to enjoy to your heart and camera’s content.

Do you hear what I’m saying? If you really love it, you can bring it home with you!

Graffiti Inspired Home Decor..

Graffiti is a modern medium that is increasing in popularity all around the globe. More people than ever are beginning to understand the concept of graffiti and the quality of work that goes into producing it.

Elements of graffiti are now seen in everyday consumer products such as furniture. Don’t be surprised if you happen to see design savvy retailers (much like the one depicted above) selling life-size fat caps that are intended for sitting and not spraying.
