Everyone in Glasgow, make sure to head out to Recoat to catch Lyken Love & Elpho this Friday (18th) 7 to 10pm. for Haunted Graffiti. New Work by Elph One & Lyken Love. Lyken & Elph are taking over Recoat and covering the walls and windows with discarded architectural drawings and blueprints, that will act as a canvas for a mural and a backdrop to a series of paintings, drawings, prints. It sounds like its a perfect reason to make a trip to Glasgow.

Probably my favorite artist working in Pencil, California-based Eric Beltz has a new drawing in the group show Superfine at Morgan Lehman which opens tonight. The piece, Deep Shit, took 2 months and 22 days to create and is “A tender scene of murder and dismemberment…” Here, we created an animation of its creation. So dope.
