New Art Prints Available

I have 3 new art prints available in the on-line store at www.benwilsonart.com. The first two are inspired by people that are "meant to be" and the third one is a bit of an attempt in the humor category. I created the original art for all three of these prints years ago, so I thought I'd finally make some inexpensive prints available. The prints & associated details are below.

The Future Of Idaho...?

I've recently been working with the Nieghborhood All-Stars & Compass Idaho to create conceptual illustrations of various Idaho neighborhoods circa 2040 AD! Compass Idaho is working hard to create a more sustainable future for Idaho by helping to develop neighborhoods that are more bike-friendly, walkable, mass transit accessible, environmentally conscious, self-sustaining, etc… It was an enjoyable change of pace to create these architectural-style concept images to help them in their efforts. It was also a pleasure because they are working towards ideals for our community that I really believe in. Whether it's more mass transit, bike lanes, community gardens, or green architecture… I hope to see many of these visions come to life in Idaho's near future. I'd like to thank Laura, Amy, Carl, and Toby for being such a great team for this important project. Look for these images and an entire book of detailed information to be officially published by Compass Idaho in 2014.

Fishdawg Productions Website

It is always a pleasure to work with Brandan Fisher and his versatile company Fishdawg Productions. I aided in the creation of a new website for the production company and I believe the official launch is underway soon, if not already? Check it out at www.fishdawgproductions.com. Below are some screen shots from the original proposal of the website design.

The Great Snake Wrangler

I recently had the pleasure of creating another birthday piece for one of my nephews. His name is Carter and he lives in Idaho Falls with his favorite pet snake Drake. Below is a painting/relief sculpture commissioned by his parents capturing all things Carter. It is titled The Great Snake Wrangler.
