We can't believe we haven't put a gigantic spotlight on Brooklyn-based fine artist, Mu Pan in the past, but with a little Ralph Steadman influence and dark political satire, this is the kind of artwork to wake up to. The SVA grad mixes a bit of surreal, humans versus non-human battle scenes with a great insight to his sketchbook works. There is a ton of good stuff here... get lost. 

Christopher Ulrich is a painter of surreal, iconographic images. He is influenced by the richness of ancient mythology, the mystery of alchemy, and the vastness of cosmic reality. Illuminating this dark journey with insight, heart and determination he strives to understand the unraveling revelation that reveals itself in the work. The iconic baroque resin paintings of Ulrich are now showing at La Luz de Jesus Gallery in Hollywood, CA.

We profiled Bob Dob in our upcoming December issue, but you should definitely go check out his opening at La Luz de Jesus, tomorrow, November 2 in Los Angeles. Mouseketeer Army features Bob Dob's American Flag mural, which consists of a combined 76 paintings measure roughly 96" x 50". Preview after the jump . . .

We stopped by La Luz de Jesus Gallery to check out Miles Thompson's latest solo exhibition, Warm Fuzzies, Cold Pricklies. Miles Thompson has chosen Gouache on illustration board to create his new body of work, a show which reflects on what makes life both a beach and a bitch. It is an epitaph for the oceans and forests, once abundant and fecund (look it up, it is the root of the F bomb), now only a ghostly reminder of what an infinite life giving power they once were.
