Lowbrow Art

Less than a week left to go for Half and Half art show!

Hey there, sports fans! Al here with the latest;

Hey, I wanted to let you guys know that the half-and-half show is coming to a close within the next week or so.

A image of the show before opening.

It’s been successful, though no actual artwork was sold, but that wasn’t the point.

The idea was to get the artwork to the public so they could see what I’ve been working on. And the reaction has been fantastic!

With that being said, there are now prints that will be available soon enough, and T-shirts Have already been made based on the image of “Blast Off!” I’m really excited about this because I’m starting to get into the idea of doing posters, prints, and T-shirts again.

I’ve made a few little videos listed here from TikTok and one that is actually a short version from Facebook.

Soon, it’ll be time to head back into the show in the limelight again, but before that happens, I will have some other stuff ready to go for that show: the shirts, the prints, it may be an original piece or two.

I’ll have to confirm with my art show partner, Dan Depaolo, to see if he wants to get another table together. Like me, I think he has started to feel the need to get our work back out. There’s so other people can see it, and we work well together selling each other‘s work when the other isn’t there. I will say it’s been fun.

And with that, this kid is out of here, but check out the links for the shirts, and I’ll be making the prints available here soon enough.

Half and Half Art Show!

Hey there, sports fans. Al here with the latest:

Well, it finally happened: I have an art show. The only drawback is I have to share it with another person, so it’s not a solo art show, though this is not a jab at them.

I’ll be sharing the art show with a woman named Amy Gan. She is a photographer.

This brings me to the show's name - The Half and Half Art Show! It brings both illustrative work and photography together in one show.

And in one place I dearly love, the Slingshot Lounge. Not quite my home away from home but close.

It is run by some of the coolest people I know Eric Mims and his wife Jordan Walden.

I have been very fortunate to have known these people who offered me a solo show at the Slingshot by then curator Joey Maes.

The One-Man Show or OMS was a success in so many ways that I can't even count.

So it is always very exciting for me to show there again.

Hey there, sports fans, Al here with the latest;

So it’s been a while since I’ve had to post anything or of recent times because now I think it’s getting closer to finishing another piece of artwork. This one’s a promotional poster for Sady Starkiss and Heavy Metal, and I’ve got a couple more pieces left to go for that group of women images.

After that, I should be finished and completed with the road less traveled for the Pasquini project show. Once that’s completed, it’s a matter of getting out the varnish, letting it air out and dry out, and then getting a hold of Gango Printing so I can have prints ready to go when it comes time to start selling the pieces.

And that’s about it. Not much else to talk about on the Art Front.

And that’s it, and this kid is out of here.
