Often at shows or events, Justin Hillgrove's Imps and Monsters is accompanied by Mike Capp Art. Well, here is a closer look at the scoundrel:

Mike Capp Art
smcappy@hotmail.com

Mike Capp is an accomplished artist who finds inspiration for his artwork through his children's creativity and pop imagery. His paintings don't really mean anything dangerous, angsty or irksome. There's no bubbling social commentary. His paintings which incorporate his young childrens' drawings aren't meant to provoke the unarticulated terrors of childhood. They're just drawings of monsters, superheros and robots. Even though there's plenty of angst behind his humor, more so there's a playful, impish, boy's mind, full of cartoons and KISS memorabilia. His technique is solid and clean, so he affords himself the privilege of choosing subject material that is loose and silly, while still keeping a close eye on small details of color and composition. He paints what feels good and what results are paintings that are funny and frivolous, in a good way. It's not as important to understand what his paintings mean, as it is to understand that they are just what they appear to be.

Mike's work can be purchased at many of the same galleries and locations as Imps and Monsters, or online:
