About the Artist:
"My work looks to inhabit utopian impulses by creating vast fantastic structures which bridge the possible and the physically impossible. While each drawing starts with a simple combination of three shapes, the end point is a multitude of polygonal structures and architectural systems that express a unique spiritual connection to the land and nature."
Melissa Manful, an Armory Teaching Artist, has shown in galleries throughout Los Angeles and in Canada, where she was born, for over ten years. Her work is in the permanent collection of the Huntington in San Marino.
Vans team rider Daniel Sandoval took the win today at the 2014 Vans Off the Wall BMX Invitational as part of the 52nd Annual Coastal Edge East Coast Surfing Championships (CE-ECSC) in Virginia Beach, Virginia. CE-ECSC is the largest and most anticipated action sports festival on the East Coast and the action and energy on the BMX park course did not disappoint.
The course was expanded this year to allow for plenty of lines and variety to go with the huge tricks thrown down in previous years. The crowd and riders gave it their seal of approval by “cranking it to 11″ from start to finish.
Gary Young was the top rider in Prelims on Friday, yet all 18 riders in the event rode great, reflected by the fact that less than 10 points separated Gary from 18th place.
Jason Watts from Brisbane, Australia made the most of his summer in the states by following up his third place finish at the Van Doren Invitational with a solid fifth place finish here. Boomerang airs and brakeless nosemanuals flowed together with huge tricks over the box. Fellow Aussie Ryan Guettler landed in fourth place with a one-handed table flip, huge flair, and the transfer of the weekend – an alleyoop 720 from spine to box.
Despite tweaking his knee during his top scoring prelim run, Gary Young followed up his big win at the Van Doren Invitational with a third place finish in Virginia Beach. He blasted the quarter pipe higher than anyone while riding in typical Gary fashion – fast and flowing with unique lines the other riders were blown away by.
Scotty Cranmer’s runs were unreal. He finished .20 behind the winner, despite a fall at the end of his second run which was full of highlights – a massive double tailwhip flip over the box, a clean 720 over the spine straight into a fufanu to icepick to turndown on the wallride.
Last year’s second place rider, Daniel Sandoval, moved to the top of the podium this year. In addition to his big tricks over the box, Daniel did huge double whips on the quarter pipe, a double whip over the channel, a 900 and a vader scuff nosemanual to add some lip trick variety.
“I am so excited to take home the win,” said Daniel Sandoval. “After placing second last year, I was super fired up to come back to Virginia Beach this year. Thanks to Vans for supporting this event, it’s always great to come out and compete in such a fun city.”
The vibe throughout the week at the Vans Off the Wall BMX Invitational was reminiscent of the Vans Triple Crown of BMX series that ran from 2001-2004. The insane level of riding was surpassed only by the amount of fun had by all.
Romeo and Juliet, designed by artist Rachel Feinstein in 2019 for HYxOffTheWall at Hudson Yards, was inspired from a short film the artist made for the Met Opera's production of Romeo and Juliet, depicting the two title characters exchanging glances from across an opulent party from the famed ballroom scene. Architectural elements, along with the guests, are meticulousy cut out and rendered in varying layers to create a sense of depth.
HYxOffTheWall, on exhibit at The Shops & Restaurants at Hudson Yards from March 2019 to January 2020, features large-scale tableaus, interactive displays and murals from 13 artists. The exhibit was curated and produced by CultureCorps.

Flowers for Malcolm McLaren (6805), 2011
Oil on linen on panel
18 x 18 inches

Value: $1,200
Starting Bid: $400
This painting was produced for a project done with Emma Gray HQ in 2011 titled, "SEX: A Monument to
Malcolm McLaren." Steven Bankhead’s project-based work is guided by a principal interest in signs and
sign processes. He often explores the push/pull that exists between art and advertising – in essence,
how one informs the other. It is his belief that all paintings are signs; forms of communication between
the artist and the viewer. Born in 1971 in Augusta, Georgia, Steven Bankhead earned a BFA at Auburn
University and an MFA at Otis College of Art and Design (2001). He has had solo exhibitions at Emma
Gray HQ, Los Angeles (2011); Circus Gallery, Los Angeles (2008 & 2010); and at Galerie Andreas
Binder, Munich (2009).

clothed in a wispy veil of fog. The image was made with a vintage (circa 1907) Kodak Panoram Model D

A collection of Build-A-Bear versions of Michael Jackson, all made on the Build-a-bearville site and then edited on Paint to look more like Jackson.
The collection includes: Off the Wall, Thriller, Beat It, Say Say Say, Bad, Dangerous, Most Previous.
It took me about three hours, from making the Build-a-Bearville accounts, to finishing the Jacksons and collaborating them on Paint.
Michael Jackson, the King of Pop

About the Artist:
"My work adopts methodologies that involve an engagement with the stories of others. To gain insight into the lives of my subjects I use ethnographic strategies of interviews and fieldwork. My interest lies in exploring the complex relationship between people, places, and stories, examining and translating into visual forms feelings of belonging, displacement, human interconnectivity, and the transitory nature of life."
Dark Pants is a self-published mini comic that chronicles the whereabouts of an obstructive pair of Dark Pants as they find new owners and adventures all over Los Angeles. This limited edition screen print illustrates the last scene of the first issue of the series.

I painted this because I thought it represented a typical young male. Then I had it pointed out to me that he had pussy on his mind, that the headless cat sybolized his obsession with the female body. It`s funny that I hadn`t seen this , considering that I was the artist, I am supose to know what I am painting. More of my work can be seen at www3.sympatico.ca/jim.rowe2/
