Big State Art and Social Club
the artwork of Brian Campbell
Nostalgic imagery centered around the influence of childhood pop culture
printmaking, toys, woodcuts, art, screenprints, comic books, linocuts, design, collage, villains, collecting, Tattoos, painting, movies, drawing, cartoons, music, guns, ads, monsters, catalogs, vintage, heroes, skulls, sex, and robots
Hooked from the first time the gouge peeled away the surface of a lino block. From then on, moving into woodcuts and screen printing was a natural progression.
The sketchbook is a playground. It’s a place of release. Cut and paste, make marks, splash India ink around and see what comes out of it.
