3 Bulletproof Tips for Getting Your Work Noticed by Your Creative Heroes

serena williams on photo shoot with chase jarvis 2
If you’ve been following me for any length of time, then you most likely know my M.O. by now: put your work out there early and often. Steve Martin famously said, “Be so good they can’t ignore you.” But the other side of that is to have so much work out there that people can't swing a stick without hitting something you've made/written/built/produced/directed/etc. I talked about this with fellow sharing advocate, #cjLIVE alum, and all-around... read more ›

Take My Art! Jay Shells + The Rap Lyric Street Sign Project

http://youtu.be/54yahfgbqQE Documentary makes the impermanent permanent. It's a satisfactory compromise for street artist Jason Shelowitz (AKA Jay Shells), whose 'Rap Quotes' project has the longevity of a fruit fly or a sand castle at low tide. Inspired by many rappers' tendency to work the streets, blocks and parks of their upbringing into their lyrics, Shells decided to turn those shout-outs into official-looking street signs and hang them up at those specific street corners and locations.... read more ›

Reality Bender — Interview with Street Artist that Transforms Sidewalks into 3-D Wonderland

Regular readers here know I'm a big fan of street art. And when I find good stuff, I share it. In particular the work of Tracy Lee Stum have blown my mind of late - pushing the boundaries of what can be done with perspective and chalk, creating innovative new ways to expand the medium. Where most people see a piece of chalk and a stretch of sidewalk, Tracy sees yawning chasms, hidden underground cities,... read more ›

Skate This: Recycled Skateboard Sculptures

Here's a little insight into the process, taken from the... read more ›

Photos of Amazing Street Art

Some Friday fun to inspire your weekend: Reinvent the mundane. Im always impressed with how street artists can transform mundane objects into a fertile canvas. Visually rearranging everyday spaces that seem to serve a single function (like a crosswalk or drain), and remixing with an ingenuity that knocks function on its ass. This reinvention of a seemingly innocuous wall, either in a highly economical manner or with painstaking precision and effort, tilts our perspective. Surprise... read more ›

Shepard Fairey Installs 100-foot Mural

Shepard Fairey has a new installation in London's Pleasure Gardens. The 10-story mural is part of the London Pleasure Garden's vision of emulating the 17th and 19th Century tradition of 'communal spaces where people from all walks of life converged to listen to music, admire paintings, stroll, drink, flirt and immerse themselves in the culture.' As the world's attention turns to London for the 2012 Olympic Games (July 27-Aug 12) the longtime cultural capital of... read more ›

Visual Voodoo: People as Street Art

Street artist Mark Jenkins challenges people with his unique sculptures of humans in interesting or compromising situations. Made from packing tape and then dressed in pants and shirts, wigs and jewelry, these "dummy" arrest the passerbys with surprise and delight. Click through the gallery above to see some prime examples of Mark Jenkins' work. Photos of the pedestrians passing seem completely disinterested in the oddities that they are strolling right past. Twin beds and sleeping... read more ›
