Falling children. Lonely teens. I get drawn and sucked into the characters, worlds, and narratives that Nate Frizzell’s creates in his paintings.

I think it’s hilarious that Dali did commercials. I especially like his “interpretation” of how Alkaseltzer works.

I’m a fan of Mark Ryden’s surreal (typically meatastic) paintings. So I was very excited to see the brilliant (not to mention meticulous) folks at Pressure Printing’s step-by-step production photos of an Ryden’s latest intaglio print.

Born in 1964 in Heerlen, The Netherlands. Tom Classen went on to study sculpture at the St. Joost Academy in Breda. He lives and works in The Netherlands.
A soft object looks hard, light looks heavy and massive looks empty. He uses conventional materials like bronze or sand as well as rubber and cheap polystyrene. The content seems naive and funny, but it is serious and precise. Claassen uses unconventional forms to investigate the conventions of sculpture.
Related postsWhen seeing the work of Tom, people often want to touch it, to see if it’s real what their eyes are experiencing.
The works are a bit abstract, because the artist doesn’t want to create sculptures that already exist. His main focus is on how to make the outside look like the inside and then let the audience experience the sculpture.
Limited edition lithograph prints. Signed + numbered.
