Move over, Santa. Local artist (and tattooist at Anything’s Possible in Mooresville) Elf is bringing his canvassed goodies to Baku Gallery at Fu’s Custom Tattoo in NoDa. In the exhibit Elf’s One-Man Art Show, on view Aug. 6-31, the pictured “Fallen Angel” will be featured, along with a range of other styles, including portraits, abstract pieces and fantasy works. Also known for his murals (he painted a jazzy piece on Central Avenue at the former Swing 1000), Elf’s creations are a magical mix — you never know what you’re gonna get. Free. Monday-Thursday, 12 p.m.-8 p.m.; Friday-Saturday, 12 p.m.-10 p.m.; Sunday, 12 p.m.-6 p.m. Baku Gallery at Fu’s Custom Tattoo, 3200 North Davidson St. 704-376-4556. www.fustattoos.com.
