Inspiration In-between is a blog about finding artists that inspire me and hopefully will inspire you as well. I try to have some information about them and the techniques they use, but not too much, so you can form your own opinions about the work.

The Date Farmers
The Date Farmers were just that until they were discovered by a gallery owner in Los Angeles as the new hot folk art duo. They worked in the California date groves during the day and painted Latino cultural inspired works at night. They take ques from the hand painted signs of urban bodegas. Of Dia de Los Muertes figurines and legends. From Libre wrestling heroes and accessories. The work is truly beautiful and primitive by design.
