ARTST Artist Of The Day: CM
06/11/09Well, hey there! It's me, Lukas Kaiser, your kindly community moderator, back again with another ARTST Artist Of The Day.
Today's ARTST Artist Of The Day is the user CM aka Adan Banuelos. Adan, here's your ARTST Of The Day button, free 'o charge!
Adan is a multi-talented artist working in several mediums, from painting to sketching to wood and foam sculptures. All his stuff hovers around the worlds of hip-hop and street wear, but really is just great looking, awesome stuff that has to be seen to be believed. As the artist himself says: "Although my work varies in mediums, the concepts are always somewhat related. I draw a lot from my childhood and from my adventurous teen years."
But enough about me, here's some of his work:
Sculptures
Paintings
Wanna see more from Adan? Either head to his profile or head to his blog.
Remember, if you want your work featured on the blog, head to my page and shoot me a message.
And don't forget to follow us on Twitter.
Until tomorrow...
