Sadly I couldn’t make it out to LA for this year’s I am 8-bit art show this year, which is a real shame. I’ve loved the 2 I’ve been able to attend, even though it was beyond crowded and in a tiny gallery. Well this year has seen an upgrade in the size of the gallery, but from what I hear was still packed! People just seem to love their video game inspired art!
My friend Rachel was in attendance for the opening last night and did me a huge solid and took a bunch of photos, so we can all live vicariously through her! Looks like it was fun, and just like every other year there’s kick ass art all over the place.
Many many pics after the break!
[Thanks Rachel for the pics!]

This gallery is awesome. I would buy the Billy Mitchell and Gannon paintings in a second.

Pacman and Gannon take the cake.

Eh… the “industry of cool” showing up in a different form. Heroes do not have to try, they just are.

That artist was far too kind to Billy Mitchel.
