John John Jesse is an illustrative painter from New York City’s Lower East Side in the Juxtapoz gonzo-pop vein. He often shows with artists like Esao Andrews. Jesse has cited Gustav Klimpt, Carravagio, Béla Iványi-Grünwald, and Mark Ryden as influences[2]
He painted the girls he grew up with[3], citing the punk lifestyle of girls and drugs. Most of the people featured in his work are friends of his. They are generally nude or partially disrobed, in situations that are both fantastical and gritty. Jesse has, to date, two self declared series of renderings. The first consisting of black & white drawings he calls the “Baby Demonica” series and the second, full color paintings he calls the “Demonica Erotica” series.[4]
Jesse also played bass in the New York Crust punk band Nausea[5] and designed posters and album art for bands like Agnostic Front[6]. He is a former guitar player for the band Morning Glory[7].

This is another increadible site. I built www.ralphpink.com (my portfolio) using this software.
Very simple to use and create excellent flash websites for free. Greta for online photo presentations etc.
However because it’s flash it’s not SEO friendly.
Enjoy!

Urban exploration as featured in last night ‘Evening Standard’ is about young and old photographers with a desire to trespass. These forums contain links and information on all the derelict buildings and sites in the UK and around the world, with ways to access and avoid the guards. This is an amazing resource for imagery.

An art events movement run by a group of friends and collaborators representing different tribes in British society. MuTATE BRITAIN are The Mutoid Waste Company and The Cordy House Family.
We work together to take art out of the gallery and into the city – where it reaches and entertains a much broader swathe of society. Our governing principle began with Joe Rush and the Mutoid Waste Company – we mix art into a bigger event and make sure everyone enjoys it.
