Gallery: FAC Holiday Art Exhibit – December 7, 2013
Photos by J. Hardy
We’ve included a few select photo frames from the Fayetteville Arts Coalition’s Holiday Art Exhibit on December 7, 2013 at the former FAC Gallery in Fayetteville, WV. Guests and artists abound, we were popping tags and passing out cream pies (literally lol) until the rooster crowed or it was time for the kids to go to bed, whatevs.
A stellar evening was had by all thanks to the hard work put in by the FAC staff and the artists. We’re looking forward to working more closely with FAC and other artists in Southern West Virginia in the future.
Peace, love and chicken grease – BZ
Gruss vom Krampus Funk :: Digital Illustration
Gruss vom Krampus Funk from your friends at BrianZickafoose.com.
Have you been naughty or nice this year? I’m pretty sure Krampus is going to get a few of you.
[read more=”Read more” less=”Read less”]
This time of year the whole world over, folks gather round with friends and loved ones to reflect on the highlights of year that has passed and the abundance of blessings it has brought. It is a time to be thankful for all the wonderful fruits that the universe has provided for us and to remember those who have been less fortunate.
The essence of the season is more than just the giving of physical gifts, it is the sharing of love, helping others and coming together as a community.
One doesn’t always have to buy things to get in the spirit of giving. Sometimes free stuff is the best. Pass along a smile. Hug someone. Buy a stranger a cup of coffee. Random acts of kindness are really contagious.
Regardless of what religious tradition or spiritual path you may follow, we sincerely hope each every one of you have an amazing, and safe, holiday season.

Gallery: A Psychedelic Pilgrimage to CoSM to Meet Graham Hancock
On November 2, 2013, my partner Jeannine and I made a psychedelic pilgrimage to the home of artists’ Alex and Allyson Grey at the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors in Wappinger, NY to attend a Visionary Salon hosted by legendary author/investigative journalist, Graham Hancock, who spoke to a group of about 100 people about the mysteries of the ancients, shamanic journeys, psychedelic spirituality, and new archeological discoveries that are currently being unveiled around the world, which strongly suggest that our civilization and history is much older and richer than modern science currently accepts.
The weather was crisp and beautiful as we explored the grounds of CoSM in awe and wonder of the amazing CoSMic scene that Alex and Allyson have established there.
The grounds at CoSM are truly enchanted and there are many stimulating visual art installations from prominent visionary artists, such as Chris Dyer.
The main house is a masterpiece of Victorian design and contains many works from Alex Grey and Allyson. Unfortunately, Alex Grey’s most famous works, the Sacred Mirrors, were safely tucked away in storage, patiently awaiting the opening of the Entheon Building, once its construction is complete.
After spending time at CoSM, we both fell in love with the place and have decided to have our wedding there next year! The entire experience was life altering to say the least.
In the meantime, we look forward to visiting CoSM again very soon.
Infinite Appetite :: Digital Vector Illustration
Infinite Appetite © 2013 Brian C. Zickafoose
A bejeweled winged serpent ascends from a crevice in the campground, armed with emerald shards and slithers towards the shimmering sun. Like its cosmic cousin -the epic oro bouros- the winged serpent, in a gesture of rebirth and renewal, eternally consumes its tail seeking to fulfill its voracious appetite.
About the Artwork
According to the Chinese Zodiac tradition, 2013 is the year of the serpent. Infinite Appetite is artist Brian Zickafoose’s annual tribute to the Chinese Zodiac. This illustration was created on a Wacom Bamboo tablet in Adobe Illustrator. Infinite Appetite was featured on the cover of Super Seed Magazine Issue #8, which circulated at major music festivals across the US from June through August 2013.
