Hey guys!
I am Christopher Bell.
I am an artist (illustrator) residing in Pilsen.
This blog is dedicated to anything that is art related, or that makes me laugh, inspires me, or that I think benefits society in general. I want to provoke the debate on whether pop culture destroys society or does it create significant positive changes in our generation.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
My process of painting is inspired by the background I have as a graffiti writer, skateboarder and BMXer, and the Memphis punk rock scene. With this inspiration, I use stencils and other forms of media to convey my art.
The paintings I create are produced to capture the viewers attention and pull “THE SOUL” deep into the painting. Along with evoking the soul, I also want my work to stimulate their brain and make them wonder what exactly it is they are looking at…what’s being portrayed in the image.
Escapism is a main theme in my work. I explore how society escapes from whatever is plaguing their lives, and even how I escape by creating the art itself - as cutting stencils and brushing paint across canvas has become a form of meditation for me.
