Adam Haynes has updated his website, Stickfort, with loads of new, amazing work. It has been awhile since Adam has updated his site so it is nice to see the new art.
Living in New York I often meet some of the most talented people in their chosen field and never even realize until I get linked up to them on the computer. One such photographer is Brian Kelly, or BK as I know him. We met at Zoo York awhile back and I knew he was a photographer but never of his amazing talent. BK's photos are not your ordinary skate photos, they are so much more. He takes into account all of the small details as well as the large ones. His colors, settings, lighting, and composition all play an important part of what he shoots and the results are original and inspiring.
BK's clients include some of the best including Nike, 5Boro, HUF, 12 Oz. Prophet and Red Bull.
My friend Adam Haynes has a new hand done silkscreen out right now and you had better get one before they are all gone (as his work has a tendency to do these days!) The details are as follows: It is a seven color print hand-screened on 140lb French Pure White Muscletone paper. The water sections of the print are coated in a light layer of clear varnish. Hand signed edition of 50. 25" x 19" $100.00 - Free shipping in North America - contact Adam if you'd like to inquire about shipping somewhere else.
Robert Mars’ artwork chronicles an evolving fascination with the Golden Age of American popular culture and celebrates the icons of the 1950’s and 60’s
by taking inspiration from this culture long past. Through the application of a rich color palette and tongue-in-cheek attitude, Mars’ paintings evoke a
vintage quality of design and pay homage to the idealized age of growth and hopefulness that was prevalent in the USA at the end of the Depression.
A time before the internet and mobile technology, where information was not instantly available to millions and there was no such thing as instant internet
celebrities, and instead people lived with the myth of the unique, untouchable and unforgettable personalities of Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, James
Dean, Audrey Hepburn and Elvis Presley.
Mars’ work is exhibited with the likes of Andy Warhol, Damien Hirst, and Robert Rauschenberg,
and has been shown worldwide including galleries in Munich, Tokyo, Amsterdam, London, Australia, Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Laguna Beach, Paris, Aspen, and Bulgaria.
