Narboo & Starhead Boy @ Boulevard Grocery

Boulevard Grocery is a brand new venue on the U District Art Walk. This month, they’re featuring NARBOO and starheadboy’s acrylics on wood and canvas as well as their limited edition original art on “Seven Coffee Roasters” coffee bags (the in house coffee roasting company).

The coffee bag project is a collaboration between Boulevard Grocery and local artists. Each 1-pound bag sells for $21 with a cut going to the artist, the store, and a charity. NARBOO and starheadboy are the first artists in the cycle, but there will be more to come!

Brandon Baker (a.k.a. NARBOO) and Dave Bloomfield (a.k.a. starheadboy) are both well known street artists/muralists/graphic artists who regularly show in the Seattle area.

“Creatures of Earth and Shadow”
April 20 – May 14, 2012

“Each character is a fusion of my past, my present, and the people in my immediate environment. Their struggles, desires, and personalities are revealed through their faces, gestures and surroundings.” – Jessica Geiger

“My monsters arise from popular culture, mythology, religion and dreams to evoke the darker, primitive regions of the psyche. Incorporating traditional figurative art with fantastic imagery, they represent my exploration of what it means to be human and what would happen if humans were no longer at the top of the food chain. We are often defined by what fascinates and frightens us.” – K. Amarak Waters
