Shawn Barber will be exhibiting at Billy Shire Fine Arts in Culver City, CA. This installment of the Tattooed Portrait series focuses on Los Angeles tattoo artists, with paintings and watercolors of many of LA’s most beloved and storied tattoo artists working today. The Tattooed Portrait Series has been an ongoing project, documenting artists that are tattooed, tattoo artists, their tools and materials. After 3 years of working on this series, two books, a few art shows and learning to tattoo- this show is a culmination of this labor of love so if you’re in the area be sure to check it out. It opens on July 19th and runs until August 23rd, 2008.

Gordon Wiebe illustrated for the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign. Each of the three posters feature a true or false statement, revealing certain facts about marijuana use. The campaign’s goal is to help teens stay “above the influence” by making them aware of the influences around them and preparing them to stand up to the pressures that might motivate them to use drugs. The other ads will be released later this year.
