Posted by sleepboy, September 15, 2016

David Stoupakis was asked recently to work on the limited editions of Joe Hill’s The Fireman book and boy did he deliver.

This past weekend, the Corey Helford gallery presented the work of both David Stoupakis and Tom Bagshaw. Titled Walking Within These Shadows, Stoupakis’ exhibit displayed artwork that embraces a dark sensibility mixed with a haunting sense of realism.
