Mark Cuban on raising his kids

If you've ever watched "Shark Tank," the ABC reality TV show in which entrepreneurs pitch their ideas to a panel of famous investors, you'll notice that each judge is referred to as a "self-made" billionaire.

3D Sculptural Paintings by Shintaro Ohata

Japanese artist Shintaro Ohata (previously) currently has two new sculptural paintings on view at Mizuma Gallery in Singapore. Ohata places vibrantly painted figurative sculptures in the foreground of similarly styled paintings that when viewed directly appear to be a single artwork.

These artworks, along with several of his other paintings, join works by Yoddogawa Technique, Enpei Ito, Osamu Watanabe, and Akira Yoshida, for the Sweet Paradox show that runs through August 10th.
