Art is everywhere

I really appreciate individuals who can see art in something we may find ordinary. It's a gift that I wish we can all have. Imagine a world full of art - that would be nirvana to me.

One such artist is Brock Davis. Brock Davis does mostly commercial work, but a majority of his projects have an underlying humor to it.  You know when your parents used to say "don't play with your food"? Well, there is always exceptions when you make things like Mr. Davis does.

If this guy wasn't cool enough, he even designed t-shirts for one of my favorite stores - Tar-zhay or as us common folks call it "Target."

For the pessimist in me, Brock Davis even created a poster where he re-imagined a classic video game without the proverbial happy ending.

The next time you look at that boring piece of potato sitting on your plate, think art and you'll be all the better for it.

  1. Great picks! I love the happy ending old school video game art! Damn that never ending PitFall!!! Also, that banana should have been made into another anatomical art piece ;)
