Best Known For: For years, I’ve spent months on fine oil paintings and drawings but lately, painting dumb characters like a drunken elephant named “Tippsy” that takes me like 10 minutes.

Favorite Medium: Paint

Influences: Damien Hirst, Andy Warhol and Dr. Seuss

Dream Project: To paint my elephant on the Great Wall of China

Opening at the )( Space Gallery Wednesday, August 4, 2010. 7-10 PM

One thousand, one hundred and seventy-six man-hours was how long it took James Marshall and crew to finish the new mural located at the Hurley Space Gallery. How much paint you ask? Anywhere from a quart to a gallon of seventy-three different colors were put to use for the creation. Sections of the mural will be for sale, allowing you to buy your favorite portion from the two full walls of art. Come down to Hurley HQ to check out the masterpiece. 

The exhibit will be on display through August 27, 2010
Monday – Friday, 10AM – 5PM

1945 Placentia Ave, Costa Mesa, CA 92627

Check out the "making-of" video we took during the artists' latest collaborative effort.

Hurley resident artist Jason Maloney and graffiti wizard, Bigfoot, joined forces to create a 110-foot long by 20-foot tall spray-painted mural on the walls of 14-year-old skate prodigy Curren Caples' private skate park.

The legendary "low brow artist" goes on display at Cal State Northridge

Myself and photographer Beau Roulette headed out for night of surreal fun at Cal State University Northridge last Saturday for the opening of Robert Williams art show, "Conceptual Realism in the Service of the Hypothetical." The gallery was packed with art stars and fans alike. Hurley is a contributing sponsor of the show and is featuring Robert Williams as the brand's featured artist for Spring 2010. The show runs through April 3, 2010. — Jason Maloney
