Paintings by New York-based Frank Gonzales.

Watercolour paintings by Vancouver-based Tristram Lansdowne. Found while browsing through the latest issue of ION Magazine.

Skinner’s insanely detailed paintings are grotesque works of art I enjoy staring at! He’s been in dozens of shows and has a lot more planned for the coming months. So, you just know he’s been keeping extremely busy. Nevertheless he took time to answer some questions!

Tell me a little bit about yourself!
I am a vegan metal guy who likes strange and bizarre things… I like animals.. I hate authority and douche bag cops … I like taking mushrooms and climbing mountains. I love emotional moments when you see who Someone really is… I like stop motion animation and strong coffee and I fucking love the Melvins
What types of things were you into as a kid?
As a kid I was into anything fantastical and strange…scary stories, comic books, fantasy films, Dinosaurs, Sharks, The incredible Hulk…I really, really was focused on Sharks, dinosaurs, and the Hulk…then i saw Ultra man on TV one day and freaked out! it was the first time at 5 years old that i learned what time a tv show was on and coordinated my life to see it…then Godzilla of course…
