Fresh Paint with Mat Hurtado
Artists ranging from Michael Hussar to Kevin Llewellyn to Chet Zar have found tremendous support for their macabre works within the tattoo community.
The world of alternative style oil painting has overlapped with the tattoo scene a lot in the past few years. Artists ranging from Michael Hussar to Kevin Llewellyn to Chet Zar have found tremendous support for their macabre works within the tattoo community. So much so that tattooists are now embracing the medium in a similar manner to their love of putting ink in skin. Sullen TV presents an inside look at one of these tattooist-oil painters in his studio in the midst of his latest project. To see all of the amazing talent brimming out of Mat Hurtado (yes, that is Nikko’s brother) as he paints some fancy photo-realistic hot sauce, check out this episode of “Fresh Paint” right here.
