Cultural Event 3 - Art Exhibit at Taylor Books

Recently, I took a trip to Charleston, the capitol of West Virginia.  Amongst the many exciting attractions in the area, I happened upon a very interesting art exhibit at Taylor Books.  The exhibit featured several artists such as Josh Miller, Lorin Michki and Brent Thomas. Each artist had a unique style.  They also each used very different mediums for their art.

The artist that interested me the most was Josh Miller.  His art was unlike any I have seen in a long time.  Each painting he creates looks like the doodles of a 4 year old.  This is a very interesting perspective to capture and portray through art.  From food to animals, Josh Miller draws everything the way most toddlers would.  He even refers to his art as "drawings" on his handouts.
One example of many of Josh Miller's "drawings".
