Vote Matt Mikulla For President in 2008

Normally posts at Art Rogue steer clear away from politics because, let’s be honest, politics suck. Especially since both the Democrat and Republican candidates are total Clowns.

Channel 3 did a glowing hit piece on my viral entrance into the race for President of The United States.

Art Rogue Closes It's Doors and Opens a Million More

This has been by far the most difficult post to write for me. How do I sum up two paramount years of my life filled with achievements, disappointments, highs, and lows? These two years were historical in my life and will prove to be historical to the development of Nashville and it’s visual arts scene. After a crazy period of fun and hard work I have decided to close my public studio and gallery.

Super Cool Artwork for Your Bathroom

It can be challenging to find unique artwork to go into a specific room or space such as a bathroom.

An Experience I Just Had

here are people in the world that have the ability to submit the universe into giving them what they want when they want it. There are others that must work hard, be punished, be rewarded, and taught a lesson. I am one of the latter.

Good People, Bad People, and Just People. What are You?

Yesterday I was walking my dog Dutch a few blocks away from my loft. We found a nice little patch of grass to play in and Dutch started rolling around on his back. That’s when it happened.
