New Image Art Gallery is turning 15 and to celebrate they’re having the best art show on earth. If you’re in the L.A. area this saturday and want to see magic on walls you need to go to this!! Our friend Matthew Rodriguez got invited to be in this show at the last minute. I stopped by the night before he flew out to L.A. Here are some pictures of some of his work.

This is an art critic that was going to try to go check out the show on Saturday. Everytime I see this puppet he is far from sober. He told me he lost his legs in Nam.

Also he just got his etsy store up. Click here to check out his bag.

Who is Matthew Rodriguez?

He was very friendly early on in our transition from California to Austin. Matthew has quickly become one of my favorite artists and favorite people altogether. He makes awesome artwork and is arguably one of the biggest artists coming out of Texas. All of you people living on the west coast should stop by and say hello and take your friends and take him a tall boy of sparks and ask him about Africahhhh. He’s basically my brother from another mother.

Juxtapoz wrote about the show here.

“The arts show is going to be a collection of paintings and mixed media telling stories about hoodlum street animals, fed up plants, stray animals, tiny chandeliers, the great pacific trash pile, the environment’s big problem, bling, and stories told by my grandpa,” Rodriguez told us.
