A pretty dope remix of Robert Williams famous "Appetite for Destruction" - probably for the Crazy 4 Cult show.

I think Dave is one of the best satirical painters out there.

i just found out that he has been involved in over 100 group shows since his last solo 2 years ago. crazy stats.

he has a new exhibition opening at the end of this month at thinkspace entitled 'lowbrow love letter'.

it will be good to see a body of his work together in one place.
this new piece cracks me up, as lebowski is my favourite movie...

I love Dave. Amazingly nice guy and a fantastic artist in my opinion. Can't wait to see his solo show this year.

The unintended celebrity has now become the subject of much mockery, for example:
