Ferris Plock has always had an active imagination. As a kid, he and his brothers would create their own comic books, featuring hundreds of original characters. Now an adult, Plock cranks out wildly inventive art from his studio in Western Addition. Plock's Rest for the Wicked solo show draws from a recent visit to Kyoto, Japan, resulting in a fantastical mash-up of material — half San Francisco skateboarder, half samurai. Expect to see fearsome animal warriors wearing Chuck Taylors and cycloptic monsters in martial arts stances. His technique and worldview have no doubt matured, but clearly Plock's childlike imagination is as active as ever.

The Shooting Gallery says:

The Shooting Gallery is pleased to present Rest for the Wicked, a solo exhibition by San Francisco-based artist Ferris Plock. This new collection embodies the artist's trademark character-based works along with a Ukiyo-e inspired sensibility. The exhibit is the artist's debut show with the Shooting Gallery and will be comprised of 15-20 small to medium pieces composed of a variety of media such as acrylic, gouache, gold leaf, and spray paint on wood panel.
