Creepy Link of the Day! Local Artist Steve Beltrondo!

Happy Saturday, Creeps!

The best part of doing local shows is the cool people you meet and discovering what great talent lurks in your own backyard.  Oh how I love the deliciously demented minds that hide behind the kind faces of the people I meet. I always think to myself, "Why don't more people know about this guy/girl's work?" I think it's time someone in the Akron area shines a light on what crawls beneath the mainstream. And I am working on that, friends ;) Hopefully we aren't all so used to hiding in the catacombs of the creative world that we scatter like cockroaches when I flip the switch.

And with that little bit of foreshadowing, and without further ado.... I present The Creepy Link of the Day:

Today I would like to introduce you to the work of Steve Beltrondo. This guy's work definitely needs more attention. I think my favorites are his charcoal drawings because they are so hauntingly beautiful. But his inks are simply amazing. Its like putting Dali and Escher in a blender and creating a perfect surrealist smoothie. (haha - I'm an artist not a writer, but you get the point. Now go check him out.)
