Todd James aka
REAS is having a New York exhibition, “Make My Burden Lighter,” opening
January 15th at the
Gering & Lopez Gallery, reception is from 6 to 8pm. It’s about time! If you’re into penis cartoons and lactating boobies, this one’s for you! Check out
his site to learn more about the ridiculous human being that is, Todd James.
“Consistently funny, relentlessly appealing, and often deliriously transgressive, the work of Reas International is instantly recognizable to the cultural connoisseur.”

Wow, thanks to Peter Nidzgorski’s always great tumblog:
This Isn’t Happiness for introducing me to
Iain Macarthur’s work. The style of portrait sketching combined with ink and computer graphic retouching works wonderfully. The future is now kids! (oh FYI he’s 23, bright future? nahh beginner’s luck)

Ahh another hometown hero. Alejandro Fuentes, aka
Los Fokos, is a born and bred Los Angeleno who still lives and works in the city. He has an amazing eye for color, impressive technical skillz (a lot of these images appear to blend photos and drawings seamlessly), a list of A+ clients and an even more impressive portfolio. Check it out (more imagery
after the jump):

I was poking around my old bookmarked links and noticed Sir Mike added some new work to
his website (check it out, it’s incredible and worth your time). He’s a wildly talented painter with a sly sense of humor… a rabbit leading a rabbit with a carrot? A bird using a jetpack? A person dressed as a squirrel walking a dog?
Miss precoce feroce, WTTD’s own lovely win0, previously bragged about her own Mike Mitchell purchases a while ago. Time to go back to his shop, he’s on his last run of T-shirts and new posters have been added. More imagery after the jump:

Mr.
Warburton is a South African illustrator/designer who keeps claiming he’s just “messing around” (go ahead, rub it in)…he’s got a penchant for silly monsters. Check the guy’s skillz:

El Mac. Known for his amazing renditions of hot chicks, meticulous attention to detail, and the “how is that possible?” things he does with spraypaint. Operating as “The Mac” since the mid 90s, he’s also the coverboy for this month’s
Juxtapoz and there’s a lengthy interview inside. Check out the video interview
here.
BONUS: He’s got an upcoming exhibition in LA with his sometimes-partner Retna (we’ll remind you):
