Nothing Like This

I guarantee you have never seen something like this before, and if you have, shoot us an e-mail and prove us wrong. This piece that we would like to showcase comes from one of our friends and loyal customer, Tony Bohn. He is an artist looking to cause a ruckus in the art scene and he also packs a mean punch. This piece is hand-crafted from his mind using an altoid tin box and various materials. He is also creating pieces using numerous hip-hop legends as the models so be on the look out. To get a better idea of who he is, here's a little background info on Mr. Bohn.


Anthony Bohn has been an artist based out of Waukegan, IL for the last several years & has been part of the Chicago "Low-Brow" scene for almost a decade. From pinstriping to toys, dioramas to low-brow paintings. If it's dark satire bathed in skittles you want, you got it! Coming off of a succesful show last summer, "Cheap Trinkets" with Aaron Adams and Beau Monde, Anthony is preparing for another show in Winter '09. This piece is from that upcoming show, "Death Ride A Pale Monkey". His work takes on a dark cartoon landscape of sock monkeys, teddy bears, drugs, murder, more drugs & rainbows. To see more of Anthonys work & regular show updates, visit him on Facebook, search Tony Bohn, or e-mail him at tbohn77@uscellular.blackberry.com. Keep checking www.beaumonde07.com for more updates!
