Been really lagging on my art bloggin of late been so busy with the gig wanted to get back to what inspired me to blog in the 1st place art! This is Dennic Mcnett my good friend and it is his first time being invited to create with the Barnstormers a big honor. This piece is sick…so is this one from Swoon

This is Jose Parla a early Barnstormer and a amazing artist.
And one of my favorites Kenji Hirata
I didn’t really know about this dude but man was I impressed by his work Pime Rensin a Tibetan painter who creates all his own pigments and paints out of various minerals…..This stuff needs to be seen in person to really get it pics don’t do it justice

This is Martina Mazzora’s partner in crime Mike Houston and it’s tight….Thinking about copping it actually…Cannonball press is no joke!
The artist known as UFO…This is cool I use to like seeing his weirdo little UFO’s around the city wondered what had happened to him

Martina Mazora and Mike Hunter aka Cannon Ball press…Imagine going camping in this things…That would be so rad!

Some info on the Barnstormers:
Over the past decade, the Barnstormers have created large-scale collaborative paintings, films, and performances. The group formed in 1999 after a pilgrimage of twenty-five artists to the rural town of Cameron, North Carolina, where they painted barns, tractor-trailers, shacks, and farm equipment, and continue to return to paint new murals. The Barnstormers’ “motion paintings” best demonstrate the range and flexibility of their collaboration: each timelapse video depicts a mural in the making as members dart about, adding and effacing marks, evolving the image with each passing second. A 2005 project included the dis assembly/relocation/reassembly of a barn captured on video in a time-lapse flurry of activity. Improvisation, in spirit and practice, is the Barnstormer ethos.
