In this one I’ve been an animator for Disney, illustrated children’s books published internationally and painted portraits for friends and the famous.

I draw so I can bring back what I find there.</span></p>http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22844062232http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22844062232Fri, 11 May 2012 11:53:46 -0400artbattlesart battlesartlive artDave ZaboskiLAAmsterdam<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3tsenqaK91qb07fto1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>On the Streets of NY…</p>http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22797877002http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22797877002Thu, 10 May 2012 17:15:28 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3rjyus5Xs1qb07fto3_500.jpg"/><br/> Tewsr<br/><br/> <img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3rjyus5Xs1qb07fto1_400.gif"/><br/> Dave Zabowski<br/><br/> <img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3rjyus5Xs1qb07fto2_500.jpg"/><br/> Al Scholl<br/><br/> <img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3rjyus5Xs1qb07fto4_400.jpg"/><br/> Keenan Chapman<br/><br/> <p>Today we have FOUR Artist’s of the Day in honor of our four online winners who are competing tomorrow at our LA ArtBattle @ExchangeLA with @BlueCanvasInc !</p> <p>The Artist’s of the Day are:</p> <p>Tewsr</p> <p>Keenan Chapman</p> <p>Dave Zabowski</p> <p>Al Scholl</p> <p>Come check them our at<a href="http://exchangela.com/calendar/event/38"> Exchange LA at 7pm Thursday May 10th!</a></p>http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22719689747http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22719689747Wed, 09 May 2012 12:18:30 -0400artbattlesart battlesblue canvasexchangelaLAartlive artart competition<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3q5dhCugT1qb07fto1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Artist of the Day is: Patrick Beery from Denver Colorado</p> <p><a href="http://artbattles.com/artists/patrickbeery">Check out his dope styles on his ArtBattles.com Artist Profile HERE!</a></p>http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22674162384http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22674162384Tue, 08 May 2012 18:05:41 -0400artbattlesart battlespatrick beerylive artartArtist of the Day<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3o10gpqK51qb07fto1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>ArtBattles Artist of the Day is: Harry James from France</p> <p><a href="http://artbattles.com/artists/harry-james">Check out his dope styles on ArtBattles.com on his Artist Profile HERE!</a></p>http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22597065793http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22597065793Mon, 07 May 2012 14:36:16 -0400artartbattlesart battlesHarry JamesFranceArtist of the Day<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3me11f6Si1qb07fto1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>ArtBattles Artist of the Day is : Senor Marmota from Valencia Spain</p> <p><a href="http://artbattles.com/artists/senor-marmota">Check out his is street art style and ArtBattles.com Artist Profile HERE!</a></p>http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22542581498http://blog.artbattles.com/post/22542581498Sun, 06 May 2012 17:22:13 -0400artbattlesart battlesartlive artstreet artgraffartist of the daySpainValencia<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3kb2ybSzR1qb07fto1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>ArtBattles ARtist of the Day is: Pesu NYC Artist originally from Japan!</p> <p>He and a crew of artists are painting in Times Square today!
