sam gibbons

i've been meaning to make this post for a while now. first, because this is some of the most fascinating art pieces that i've seen, and second because i've known the artist himself since i was a wee little 9 year old as he is my cousin's good friend from high school.

Sam Gibbons launched his art career in NYC a while back, and has been successfully featured in art magazines and exhibitions over the years. you can very easily get lost in the intricacy of his work, and the detail he adds to these darker images.

here is an except about his work: "Employing imagery that was originally intended to entertain and pacify, Gibbons' paintings are at war within themselves. The typical role of the cartoon is subverted; these benchmarks of inexperience are engaged in violent and sexual acts. Acting as allegories for the loss of innocence, Sam Gibbons' paintings exist as a complex and beautiful mimicry of the human condition."
