Artomatic 2012 + Washington Post
Hey look at me on the Washington Post repping Lowbrow art at Artomatic 2012…
Lowbrow art, characterized by the bold, cartoonish style of Chris Bishop, is one of Artomatic’s dominant aesthetics.

Artomatic opens in DC Friday Night
For those who haven’t been, Artomatic is the biggest art show in DC featuring over 1000 artists on 11 floors. Opening night is 6:00pm, Friday, May 18th!
I am showing my work on the 11th floor in room 1147 alongside the lovely Emily Greene Liddle. I have 3 new large pieces and 6 smaller pieces. Here is a peek at the corner of one of the large pieces…
So, if you are come out opening night, stop by and say hi. If you can’t make it, the show will be up through June. Check out artomatic.org for details and directions. It’s pretty much right next to the metro.
