April Spotlight: Erik Siador

Ch-ch-check it out...
First off, Erik Siador is a badass.
He has established so many connections through his artwork it's hard to know where to begin. Being an extremely talented jack of all trades, Erik's expertise branches outside of the every day art world and into the extraordinary. Being trained in traditional and digital illustration, fine art and painting, graphic design, web design, 3D modeling, traditional animation, sculpture and even fashion design (FORREAL?!), it's no wonder he's making such a big splash in the the art community. His work has been featured in several urban and art magazines such as; Complex, Maxim, XXL, Juxtapose and ISM (just to name a few). In addition to his work with several publications, he has collaborated with companies like Scion and Burton and artists including The Roots and Nine Inch Nails. (ECLECTIC McGEE) Anyways, this rave about Mister Siador IS going somewhere...I'm very excited to announce that he will be exhibited at The Hive as our Featured Artist #1 for our 5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY SHOW! Yowza!
I know we can only wait in fierce anticipation to see what he has in store for us but ,being that he is a nice fellow, he sent a couple sneak peeks over our way. SO indulge yourselves as I present these pictures, bright in living color!




On a side note, any artist than can incorporate their pet kitties into their artwork wins me over automatically. Check these bad boys out!



If you would like to know/see more of Erik and his artwork, visit his myspace or website! The links are provided below. If that's not enough, and it won't be, you will get the chance to see him and his new art in person on April 3, 2010 at The Hive Gallery!
