Jason Levesque, who was profiled in RVA #1 (CLICK HERE) will be teaming up with illustrator Erik Jones at ArtGallery on July 10th. Since we have shown you Jason’s work before, here is a selection of Erik’s stuff for you to oogle. Again, this is NSFW.

Illustrator Jason Levesque is a self-taught digital artist. Drawing inspiration from traditional pinup art, Levesque’s prints depict “pretty girls” intertwined in manifestations of both the beautiful and ugly faces of the natural world.

Illustrator Erik Jones, a graduate of the Ringling College of Art and Design, shares the same fondness for pinup art. However, unlike Levesque, Jones employs traditional methods of drawing and painting to render his “sexy, fun, realistic and edgy” female figures.

Both Levesque and Jones’ illustrations have graced the pages and covers of numerous magazines and comic books.

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is.

Guerrilla Filmmaking as Art and Ethos

After a night spent on the coziest sofa in all of Appalachia, we headed up early to the top of a university parking deck, parked beneath a sign that read “No Parking / No Loitering,” and lined up the shot—my director and me, just the two of us that morning to grab a...
