3D Art by Tripper Dungan

I fell in love with Tripper Dungan‘s 3D art when I stopped in at one of my favorite Portland galleries, the Screaming Sky Gallery on Alberta, during Last Thursday in May, Last Thursday being in my opinion, the funnest street festival in town, when 15 blocks of the neighborhood are closed to cars and fill with artists and craftspeople selling their creations, food carts, musicians, dancers, jugglers and just about anything you can imagine. It’s pretty amazing. But anyway, I digress, I was very happy to be introduced to the uber fun, colorful and cartoon-influenced work of Portland, Oregon-based artist Tripper Dungan. From his etsy profile:

“When I was 4 I got in trouble for coloring in my brothers HeMan™ coloring book and I’ve been in love with art ever since. I went to a magnet high school for the arts in Las Vegas Nevada, and upon graduation made my way up the west cost via Astro Van, train and thumb. I finely arrived in Portland Oregon where I’ve been painting, performing shadow-puppet shows, having art parties with the fabulous Junk town artists, and making cartoons.” (Images via www.etsy.com/people/tripperdungan)
