Oni original art Skateboard SOLD

here is a skateboard I did for an artshow. It's based on Japanese folklore. Oni (鬼?) are creatures from Japanese folklore, variously translated as demons, devils, ogres or trolls. They are popular characters in Japanese art, literature and theater.
This skateboard is Canadian maple 7.50 board and is for sale. ^_^

which one....

not sure when I can but I think my next two pieces I want to do after I get caught up on commissions.. lie here possibly.

‘No Holds Barred’

Art 227

227 Chenoweth Lane

South African-born artist Emil Walton doesn’t consider himself a gallery owner, he just came upon this space in St. Matthews by way of his in-laws. “No Holds Barred,” the first exhibit at Art 227, features Walton and a handful of other local artists including Joy Wilson, Daniel Pfalzgraf, Jill Morgan, Andy Cook and Shandy Goodlet to name a few. “I’m not to sure what to expect, but my plan is to have numerous group shows for the next few months to give artists like myself a place to show their art,” he says. “If people come to see the shows, then I consider it a success. Every artist wants their art to be seen and talked about. If they make a sale, then it will be icing on the cake.” The closing reception is Friday from 6-11 p.m. —Sara Havens

Ebil in Wonderland

full interveiw here Ebil in Wonderland


There are very rare times in our lives when we come across someone who is truly great at something. Be it throwing a football, solving impossible math equations, writing the greatest novel of our time or simply creating a magnificent piece of art that takes our breath away. These are the ones that are the true stars and should be in the spotlight. In an age where everyone is trying to stretch out that last 15th minute of fame, wether it’s a reality show star or internet “celebrities” the truly masterful people are very rarely ever given their due props. Fortunately in this instance I can and will give someone the praise they deserve and have earned.

I’ve been a member of the Giant Robot forums for over 7 years and in that time I’ve come across and met some truly good people. Some people I’ve merely had exchanges with on the forums and others I’ve had the pleasure of raising a glass and sharing food and drink with. One of the people whom I’ve yet to break bread with but have had the pleasure of getting to know long distance is board member Shandy Gazo, aka evillilgirl. More lovingly known as “ebil” on the forums, Shandy has always been the one board member who astounded me with her vast knowledge of anime and who over the years has showcased her amazing artistic talent. Hailing from Louisville, KY or “Louis-evil” as she refers to it, ebil has been putting in work creating custom art, 1offs and showcasing her works at various shows and exhibits. I got a chance to sit down and have a chat with Ms. Ebil and get a sneak peak of where her inspiration comes from, where she’s been and what’s on deck for her in 2010.

How do you feel about animal heads on human bodies?

I have been highly interested in making some art that contains animal heads with human bodies. I am a big partaker in animal masks. I love them!
I searched the inter webz for inspiration and found an alarming amount of people who are all for it and some who it just plan freaks out. So I was interested in what are some peoples opinions about it?
I love to make art in a fine line of dark,beautiful, and surreal.Let me know what you think! I would love to know.
