I found out about Alex Pardee from a group of people. But first from Mitchell Davis, a known youtuber, and an aspiring artist. Then other friends of mine introduced him to me thinking I would like his artwork. Eventually, I checked it out and loved it. It’s unique and stands out, something I hope my pork will do someday. Alex Pardee, born in 1976, is a freelance artist.
Alex Pardee has made many album covers for famous musicians and has influenced not only me, but others as well in the art world. He’s done comic book works and calendars as well. He said that working on his art gave him depression and anxiety. What he uses to paint isn’t much different than what others use; ink, dye, watercolors and pen. He says he is also trying to incorporate acrylic paint, oil and latex to convey different images.
The main influences for his artwork were 15 years of medication and frequent visits to mental hospitals, as well as The Garbage Pail Kids. Alex’s artwork is very different than most mainstream art; some people may even call it crude or offensive. I think of it as an expression, which is what art is, of Alex’s mind and conscience.
The sick and twisted ways of conveying something innocent into an image of his own unique creativity/imagination is something we wish we could all do. There are not many artists that even come close to being as “different” as he is. If you’re into alternative/neo art and love things out of the ordinary, I recommend you check him out. You can find other information on his website, www.eyesuckink.com and through Wikipedia. And since everybody uses twitter nowadays, his twitter name is www.twitter.com/alexpardee.

And Mrs Beckham is not the first celebrity to have fallen prey to its charms. Everyone from Katie Holmes and Julia Roberts carry versions, as well as Hilary Duff and Kelly Brook. And of course, the bag's namesake herself, Jane birkin bag.
