I always find myself strangely drawn to skulls. This gorgeous, multi-faced skull is an absolutely beautiful piece of artwork by Los Angeles based artist, Derek Albeck.
The upcoming artist will show his first solo exhibition, entitled "It's Just a Ride" at the POVevolving Gallery in LA featuring more skillfully executed pencil drawings and hand-colored screen prints. The show will run from January 10th - February 10th, 2009 and is one of those things not to miss judging by the three pieces of artwork above.
