DEVIL ON THE CANVAS!

My new piece for the "Over The Line!" Coen Brothers Tribute show at LTD Gallery.  There are so many Coen Brothers movies to love how do I choose which one to create a robotic tribute.  Barton Fink was always a big favorite, especially when the force him to watch wrestling pictures!
The scene always killed me. 

Also it must translate into some kind of robot thing for me.  Now the complete "Devil On The Canvas" 9"X12" Acrylic on MDF board.

I won't be able to be in Seattle for this one but if you get a chance to go take some pictures I'd love to see the show.  I've been playing with the Vine App.  It's fun, a very creative challenge to see what can be done I believe in a 11 second loop.  This is the "How To Make A Super Sculpey Robot"



I'm interested in getting more people on Vine Love to see more creative loops.  In other exciting news I will be opening my first Etsy store in June!  I'll devote an entire post to the new store and what will be available next week.  The Artist Statement Robot block print set will be available as well as some posters, and original art.  More next week.

NEW PIECE!

 Working on a new piece for the "Over The Line!" Coen Brothers Tribute show at LTD Gallery

PROGRESS ROBOT ART STATEMENT BLOCK PRINTS!

 

The robot art statement block prints are coming along.  Two of the color schemes are done I'm working on the third.  Three color combos, 12 Prints in each series signed and numbered.  The first two of the Magenta and Orange series will be going to "Get Art - A Project Angel Food Event" a cool art happening I am proud to be a part of in support of Project Angel Food and it's mission. The shows theme is Andy Warhol's Silver Factory, which gave me the inspiration to do something in the silk screen block print style.  I'll have more progress pics in the next couple of days, as well as a preview of the two first prints that will be available at the auction.

EMMY NOMINATED ROBOT AND MONSTER!!

 I have been sick the last couple of days and slept late today.  I awoke to my phone blowing up with the news that Robot And Monster was nominated for a Daytime Emmy in the category of Outstanding Children's Animated Program!  I was pleasantly surprised and I feel like it sped up my recuperation a bit.  My show creating partners Josh Sternin and Jen Ventimilia were also nominated for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!   The crew of R&M was a dream team of creative, fun loving hardworking folks that really a pleasure to come to work everyday.  Also I'm including the overseas teams from India and New Zealand all around the world we were connected by one fun mission.
So congrats to all of you!   Now hopefully we will soon get to see the season finale for the show.

BAD ROBOT SHOW PAINTING SNEAK PEEK 2!

Pretty much done.  Robot criminal line-up.  7" X 22" on board, actually the board is MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) in a custom made frame.  Usually I have specific ideas about how big the frame should be so I'll make them myself.   Although I'm not opposed to buying the prefab boxes.
