San Marcos Studio Tour #73, Arthur Simon painting & sculpture

Arthur Simon’s art rocks are anthropomorphic minimalism meets lowbrow gag gift. Instead of adding googly eyes, fake hair or glitter, these repurposed chunks of the Central Texas landscape are reductive–excavated with diamond-coated high speed drills. Each stone is plucked from geological obscurity to coax out its unique personality. Use them as a luckstone, pocket pet, paperweight, stocking stuffer, aquarium decoration or workspace art.
Arthur Simon is an actor, artist, and activist in San Marcos, TX. He graduated from Oberlin College, studied improvisation at Chicago’s Improv Olympic then co-founded Austin’s ColdTowne Theater before forming robotic theater company Bot Party out of Fusebox Festival’s Machine Shop series. As an abstract expressionist painter, Arthur has been a fixture on the annual East Austin Studio Tour and a finalist for the Hunting Art Prize. Find him via ‘simonearth’ on Tiktok while rocks and paintings can be purchased through an Etsy store.
