So last night we took the train into Bristol to to go the gallery opening of an incredibly talented Bristol artist. Jody started off doing graffiti in the 80's. Now he does gorgeous aerosol portraits. Seriously Jody's work is absolutely amazing. I've never seen a piece I didn't like. The pieces in this show in particular are thrilling and seductive, but haunting and unbelievable. So beautiful. If you are in or around the Bristol area, I highly recommend that you go by the Weapon of Choice Gallery on St. Michael's Hill in Bristol. You can even stop by Zero Degrees just down the road between 4 and 7 pm and get £2 pints! And they have American-style pale ale!! It was fantastic! If you're not near Bristol, you'll have to settle for checking out Jody's website.
One piece in particular, called Stephanie, I absolutely fell in love with. Unfortunately, she's £550. So I'm collecting money for my birthday so that I can get her. So *hint, hint* my birthday is in less than a month. If anyone wants to contribute to the Stephanie cause, send me money. I'll let you come visit her all you want.
If you'd like to see some of Jody's work, his website is here. Check it out, his work is truly incredible. Oh yeah, and send me your money so I can get my painting ;-]
