March Art Walk!

 
3.14 (9602 16th Ave SW): Chau Dang- www.ltdspace.net- Chau makes entertaining cartoons that guarantee a good chuckle or seven. Don’t forget to have a pastry on a stick while you’re in here. It’s fun food!!

Big Al Brewing (9832 14th Avenue SW): Jim Arnold- Acrylic on Canvas- Bold, thick lined paintings that have a depth of texture. If only we lived in a world where touching art was encouraged… Stop by and try the new Rat City Blonde! All it’s craving is summertiiiiiiime

Café Rozella (9434 Delridge Way SW)Chris Cain – Come check out new work at Café Rozella’s. Enjoy a delicious coffee beverage while you’re here!

Company (9608 16th SW): Julie Costanzo- www.juliecostanzo.com Thick paint, clear visions. Julies landscapes are quite a treat (this coming from someone who isn’t normally a fan of landscape anything). They are interesting, well executed and downright dreamy. Try out some of the bangin’ new menu that Company just came up with. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

 Dubsea (9910 8th Ave SW): Mackenzie Burg- Bright graphic based art with bold lines, loud colors and interesting silhouettes. She is said to create her art “with acrylics, spray paint, and other mixed-media. The inspiration typically comes from street art, surrealism, music and the crazy adventures she has survived.

 Dzul Tattoo (9622-B 16th Ave SW): Katie & Alex- Black & White Photography. Drop in for funky grooves and an eye-full of new body ink. Updated B&W photos of the newest generation of ink, dripping with permanence.  This shop has spirit and enough eye-candy to chew on for days.

Full Tilt Ice Cream (9629 16th Ave SW): Larry “The Front Desk Guy” Seward- He’s all over White Center this month!! Check him out at 3.14 as well! While you are in here you should eat some ice cream, throw some skee ball and have a Big Al Ube Porter- made especially---for you.

Herbal Legends-Medical Marijuana Dispensary (9619 16th Ave SW): Carlos Aguilar & Dave Ryan- http://carlosgaguilar.com/works/- Urban Paintings.  Love.His.Art. Carlos does detailed, whimsical paintings; fun characters in random settings. His work is amusing and playful but not slapped together. This guy has a tight reign on the quality of application. Multiple layers of texture for a 3-d feeling full of funhouses. Pop in for some music, a snack and some raw, unadulterated talent; this kids got gusto. Dave Ryan has some seriously awesome stenciling work that is applied directly (not indirectly) to some old vinyl. Love that.

Proletariat Pizza – (9622-A 16th Ave SW)- Case Kelley-Acrylic on Canvas- In keeping with an unintentional ongoing theme this month, Case,  like many of our other artists, makes bright bold colored paintings that keep the energy of the piece vibrating and your eye swarming around. Stop in, eat a Cinco Pizza (Fontina, provolone, asiago, gorgonzola and mozzarella cheese with tomato sauce- C’mon people! Cheese!!) and suck up some vibrant art for your tired eyes.

Salvadorean Bakery (1719 SW Roxbury): Ateldoora Nightmoon-Barnum- Mixed Media on Wood-  http://nyliirstudios.mosaicglobe.com/-  Thick graphics on interesting backdrops.

She will be rolling out 11 never before seen pieces that are a part of her 83 piece series “Reflections”.  Stop by and enjoy a papusa or 3 while you register Ateldooras creative work. 

THE FORGE: TILTON, BALABAN & MCCALLISTER (9052 Delridge Way)- Matthew Tilton –Forge, Eric Balaban-Fabrication. They’ve thrown into the –art walk- mix Mutant Bicycle construction every 3rd Saturday from 12-6pm. Come build your own recycled bicycle!

Zippy’s Giant Burgers (9614 14th Ave SW): Julie Baroh- www.krabjabstudio.com/#!artists-pages- Fantasty illustration that is AH-mazing. Her figures are spot on and the contrast she builds just adds to the drama of the pieces. Definitely worth a stop in for a Great Dane burger (oh, hello blue cheese! Where ya been) and some eye candy.
