Awesomely Rad Art from a Friend


"Fit the Fish to Your Head With Care"
This art guy Mike is an old family friend, going way back. He makes killer art in Brooklyn, he once exported a big ole southern barn (yes, a barn) to an art gallery in Japan (yes, to Japan), and his website bio reads:


"Printmaker, painter, carpenter, musician, filmmaker, what the Hell? This perennially disheveled North Carolinian specializes in C.S.M.R.I.H.C.M. (Clumpy Subject Matter Rendered In Heavy Choppy Marks), and can draw the pants off a baboon, a jalopy, a Grandma, and maybe 2 other things." 


I really appreciate his deranged, humorous, and strangely positive perspective on life and art. Always an inspiration. Here are a couple of his black and white prints, and you can visit cannonballpress.com for more.
