Buying Soma - FDA Checked Pharmacy

We'll be showcasing new works from Santa Barbara based artist David Cooley this coming December in our office area. Cooley's work is some of the most unique work we've come across in a while and judging from the response so far, many of you agree with us. We first displayed Cooley's work earlier this year following a near sold-out showing at Cannibal Flower and have been gaining him many new fans since.

Cooley first sources old fabric which he then adheres to board creating the 'canvas' from which he builds upon and creates, playing off the patterns found in the fabric. From there he will coat the 'canvas' in resin achieving a mirror like shine. Once dry, he starts work on the 3D paint 'spikes' that characterize his work and make it stand out like few others. This process is intricate and time consuming and leads into the addition of hand painted elements as well as spray painted segments which all come together to create a one-of-a-kind piece of work.

'Rhythmic Nonsense' will be on view alongside 'As It Falls Over You' featuring new works from Nathan DeYoung and Linnea Strid in our main gallery and 'Specimens' from Leontine Greenberg in our project room.

All shows open on Sat, December 10th with an artist's reception from 5-8PM. Each exhibit will be on view through Dec. 30th, so please be sure to make it a point to swing on through.

The Canmans are a series of vinyl figures focused on graffiti artists and the art of collecting spray paint cans. There are 2 editions of the Canmans, the Artist Editions and the Blank Editions. The Artist Edition features limited edition Canmans that have been designed by some of the world's most prolific graffiti artists. The artist edition series for The Canmans are based on vintage spray paint cans that were once widely used and are now long gone but fondly remembered.

DABS MYLA's Canman pays homage to this concept. They have chosen a well known vintage Australian paint can, and have added their flavor over it.

Other artists in the 1st series include Revok, Greg 'Craola' Simkins and Pose. Each Canman is limited to 500 pieces worldwide.
