Tale of Two Brothers

When i was 14, i became a paraplegic, which naturally has caused each and every aspect of my life to change dramatically. the unexpected loss of my legs has become an extremely significant inspiration to create art. art has pretty much always been "my thing," but it wasn't until my situation arose that i really began to use art on a different level than most artists. creating art is basically my only form of ventilation. instead of giving up or screaming, i draw and paint. it's my sanity, especially during unbearable moments. art (in many forms) has slowly formed into a serious addiction, and i love the fact that i can't get it out of my system. i feel like i'd be nothing without my art, as well as the so called "handicap" that has led me to my endless supply of motivation. Pop artist Chogrin rounds out his “3” art show trilogy with the anticipated 3NES Show at Brooklyn’s very own Bottleneck Gallery. Displaying the work of more than fifty artists, the show pays homage to Nintendo’s three biggest classic titles: Super Mario Brothers, Zelda, and Metroid. Each artist was asked to create three pieces for the show, one for each title. 3NES features traditional 2D artwork in addition to paper cubecraft, felts, and sculptures from artists like German Orozco, Jason Levesque, JP Valderrama, and Kathleen Sanders. Contemporary art space located in the heart of Bushwick, Brooklyn specializing in limited edition pop-culture, gig and alternative movie posters. Acrylic paint is fast drying paint containing pigment suspension in acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints can be diluted with water, but become water-resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted (with water) or modified with acrylic gels, media, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media.
