Vision
Check out the work of Trevor & Ryan Oakes. There's a lengthy article on them over at the Chicago Reader that explains their process. It's definitely worth reading. There's a piece of theirs by Cloud Gate in Millennium Park that's been up for a while now and it's amazing. If you haven't already seen it, go. The park is wonderful this time of year.

Some interesting work on Becket's site. I particularly like his pencil work.

Man, I thought these were all gone, but apparently not. I've got 8 left and they'll go fast, so if you were one of the many people who emailed asking about them, nows your chance. Get one here.

Paintings & Sculpture
I've enjoyed Gabe's work for a while now. I used to check out his work on Second Friday's in Pilsen when I lived down there. Great line work on his paintings, and his sculptures are fantastic. He's got a solo show that opens this Friday at the A. Okay Official Gallery. Go check it out, you won't be disappointed.

Make sure to stop by on Saturday evening to check out Rachel's show. She's installing it right now and I have to say it looks amazing! There's a ton of stuff going on this Saturday, but you should definitely come by and see this show. You won't be disappointed.

Flashback
So I was looking through an old Transworld Skateboarding Magazine (November 1997) today and came across some work by Jason Vivona. I looked him up and he's still doing some pretty rad stuff. He's got a bunch of work up on his flickr site. I'm really digging the painted records. Oh, and the skateboards, I always like good skateboard graphics.

Collage
You ever loose contact with someone only to find out years later that they're doing some cool shit? Matt was my first roommate when I was in college back in like '97. I Haven't really talked to him since, other than a couple random emails here and there, but I just found out he's got some great collage work that you should definitely see.
