Ever the ambitious artist, Brian Barneclo uses a plethora of materials and paints to create his jazzy urban pieces. Lately he's been experimenting with 1 Shot Enamel, an oil-based sign paint that's bright and durable ... but doesn't leave room for mistakes. No matter, though; he didn't make any on these amazing new paintings which have also been covered in resin for that extra-shiny finishing touch.

And for those who prefer Barneclo's more raw style, we've got "Janky," which is really anything but that. Somehow the word seems to complete the painting nonetheless.

Grant Gilliland aka The Gross Uncle is a ridiculously talented (as well as talented in the ridiculous) young artist whose paintings and Sharpie masterpieces have been gracing the walls of fabric8 and our patrons for the better part of a year now. You may have also seen his illustrations in the SF Weekly or at sunny Dolores Park, where he hosts his monthly Team Draw parties in the summertime.

Our old Interweb colleagues at SF Station have now gotten their hands on him to decorate their weekly entertainment guide, a post previously held by none other than Ursula Young, who did a painting collaboration with Grant at fabric8's (1)2-Year Anniversary Party. Check out this nice little interview on SF Station TV.
