elcome to the online art gallery of independent graphic artist Curt Eichelberger. This site, part of the W3 Artist Project, features original paintings, prints, stickers and T-shirts, personally selected by Eichelberger as examples of his finest pieces to exhibit and sell online.
Eichelberger's style of modern Pop art, like traditional Pop art, is heavily influenced by urban and commercial culture. However, his work has a unique and contemporary look. The unusual and exciting results of his preferred medium, spray paint on plexiglass, receive rave reviews in art gallery showings. Eichelberger also works with acrylics on wood to achieve amazing, highly textured, vibrant paintings. |

History Eichelberger has been painting his "whole life." Additionally he has designed clothing for skateboarders, graffiti artists and urban hip hop kids from major metropolitan areas.
In 1995 Eichelberger and a friend started Pistol Clothing. They held "hip hop shows" and other events to promote their line of clothing and their graffiti style artwork. The shows had a fun festival atmosphere to them.
Sadly, his friend died shortly after. A year later, Eichelberger chose to sell the Pistol Clothing label and focus on his paintings. In the past two years he has had at least two art shows a month and in that time has sold over 200 paintings. His art shows continue to project a festive party atmosphere.
"When the art galleries allow it, I have a crazy and unusual atmosphere in my art shows. I know people are ready to enjoy art, not just appreciate it."
