Evan says "most would cringe at the idea of scratching or sanding something they spent hours painting, but that's my favorite art - creating the appearance that this wasn't made in the 21st century." And he's a self-taught artist, no less. You can view his work on his website at www.evanbharris.com, and you can buy prints online from

I am interested in showing the difficulty and discomfort in fully understanding a person. I leave my subjects incomplete to highlight their limitations, as well as my own inability to see the subject beyond the influence of myself.

I use photo based printmaking techniques to incorporate scientific illustrations of aquatic algae (e.g. Hypnae), DNA molecules, plant and animal cells, botanical images, and pathogens into my paintings and monoprints. I establish visual connections between my own invented images and these evolutionary forms that I encountered in nature. In addition to evoking an emotional response in the viewer through the manipulation of color, shape, line, and texture, these images also precipitate rational thoughts about both the history and current status of our natural world.

I want to live in a world where every home is full of art and it isn't illegal to paint the streets. My paintings and drawings explore issues of cultural memory, looking at pop vs. underground culture, the media, and popular mythologies.

I am an artist who is thoroughly fascinated by the clashes in the visual culture of developing cities between urban/rural, and traditional/modern elements. My painting practice is focused on creating and reinterpreting snapshots of urban life such places, especially Istanbul, where I have grown up. I am interested in elements of my architectural practice into my paintings. This involves both focusing more on my "process"- something that was highly emphasized in my architecture education- and also bringing in perspective drawings and architectural collages into painting as a means of capturing the dynamics of city life that form my subject matter.

chronicler of bulldogs and interstate trucking. He is also proud to continue the 17,000 year old tradition of mammoth painting, and hopes to spark a resurgence. His deadpan, pop-flavored, post-ironic approach is the result of millions of years of evolution. He aspires to be worthy of the title "gentleman farmer." He is undaunted by the inevitability of death and the ultimate futility of all human endeavor.

I like space travel, transcendence and trees. I like making pretty pictures with little to no explanation behind them. As such, you will find none here.

Wolf and Pack was born of necessity rather than coincidence. The need to produce rather than sit back and judge. Started in 2002 in NYC by Gabriel Hunter and Julian Lynn over drinks at a bar called Max Fish, things seemed simple, produce shirts we wanted to wear. Sell some, give some away, keeping occupied was job one. This momentum, and overwhelming response to our efforts, carried us all the way to Amsterdam NL to open the Wolf and Pack shop, while also expanding the emphasis to working with
artists we admire and support in our split level shop / art gallery space. We look forward to continuing the journey of exposing new thoughts and ideas be they cloth, canvas or digital.

Artist by nature all my life born to be creative in every way.... painter, dancer, performance, music/sound, sculpture, video, poetry...screenplays, indie films you name it I've tried it. In my creative process I express the deepest darkest ideas of the mind, soul and body by using situations, figures and artificial shapes to emulate nature in a futuristic way. I also use layering, transparency and texture to express these ideas...whether societal, emotional or political.

Matthew McGowan (Two Sevens) believes beauty can be skin deep. With tattoos becoming more socially acceptable every day, lost on most is how the art form started. By incorporating both traditional Japanese and American style tattooing styles, Matthew tries to bring to the forefront the beauty and courage of those who wanted to tell the story of their soul through their skin, even if society wasn't ready to see it. Whether it be a '50's pin-up or a modern Geisha, the subject is proud of who they are. They tell their life story on their skin, never hiding behind the social norm.

My pictures are about relationships. I am trying to fill the role of a muse. I invite women to sit for portraits because I find them attractive. Some characters appear once while others occur multiple times. Women become replaceable and interchangeable. Subjects have plump faces, flowing hair and big eyes. Some of them look as if they just fell out of a painting at the Met. The pictures place women on pedestals, glorifying yet objectifying them. The poses are awkward and elegant. Their gaze is inviting yet passive.

As my world view evolves so do my choices of media and themes. I draw inspiration from the people around me and current events to form a chaotic bricolage of pretty fragments. Recurring themes of my work include, technological fragmentation and it's implications for our lives. Abstracting the backgrounds, I add increasingly cohesive layers, often including figures, braille, handwritten text, and minutiae line work. The intentional symbols intermingle with the unintentional to encourage imagination through suggestion.
