Thomas McNamara otherwise known as Macky has been making art for as long as he can remember winning sculpting contests as early as junior high At 11 his father got him a lead soldiermaking kit Thats when art was introduced and it quickly became evident that it was to be his purpose in life At 11 he could melt the lead in a small pot pour it into molds and paint the little figurines These soldiers were often given to his parents friends The response was wild the adults all loved them As a boy this was real validation for a child surrounded by intimidating booksmart people The art carried Macky into all the art classes at Cardinal Newman high school His love for lead figure painting continued to grow during this period It was the MTV generation which Macky believes also had a huge impact on him Since then there have been many great moments including showcasing Mackys art on two episodes of MTVs PUNKd which featured Ashlee Simpson and Hugh Jackman rnrnMutt has been the label for Mackys passion since 1997 Just recently Mutt donated a customized 3foot skateboard to the Rush foundation a charity created to send kids to art school It was a huge honor for Macky to be able to be a part of such a worthy charity Courtesy of Thomas McNamara on MOLI.com

I used to think women who looked past my flaws were really cool women with brains one of Los Angelesbased graphic artist Donny Millers pictures broadcasts Now I think theyre just desperate And so establishes his tone Millers bright pop illustrations often of smiling men and women belie other bon mots like You are beautiful in every single way except maybe one or two Lets tell each other our darkest secrets Later when things go bad we can use them against each other and We think so much alike Although I have no idea what youre thinking His hip wryness earned him a reputation and he parlayed his personal aesthetic into designing logos for companies like Vans Paul Frank and Toy Machine This year Millers work was collected into his first book Beautiful People With Beautiful Feelings Abrams 2006 To celebrate the release Miller embarked on a book tour that concluded with a stop in New York City During the day he did radio spots improv standup comedy a gallery show and canoed through Central Park to end world ignorance At night he stayed in a cramped 104degree storefront on the Lower East Side donated by American Apparel with a custommade red neon light that buzzed Live Animal.
