Manmade Monsters

Matt Sesow

Chris Grine

Grine is doing 3 robots a week over at the Shoebox blog. I didn't realize that he's the same guy who does Chickenhare, a comic I've been wanting to read. I just reserved volumes 1 and 2 from the library so I should have them in my hot little hands very soon. I love the robots!

Joshua Saunders

Joshua sent me an email to say "hi from one collage artist to another." Doing collage art grants you membership in a cool community of creative folks and we like to say hi to each other from time to time and encourage each other in the work. Check out his stuff. It's way cool!

Peter Lewis

Peter contacted me because we're both going to be part of the Masters: Collage book that's being published next year. It's nice to see/meet some of the artists who will be sharing pages with me. I think if I see too many I might start feeling like I'm not worthy. Peter's stuff is really amazing and there are definite similarities in our art.

Carved Melon

I have never liked watermelon but this really puts me off melon for good. This is an actual carved watermelon. Scary!

De Monsters

Check out these cool videos by Volstok Telefunken.

Western Spaghetti by PES

Terence Healy

I'm doing a show at ArtsWest with Healy in April. It looks like our stuff will fit together well.

View Master

I had this particular View Master disc when I was a kid. I just found it via the Drawn website but when I followed the link I found the whole series of images in a form that mimics the 3D effect. You can see those images here.
I still have my View Master. It's in a box somewhere. I have some discs too but I'm not sure the Flintstones is one of them. I'll have to pull them out and see what I've got.

The Death of Mr. Yolkshire

Great egg art by nocturnalMOTH.

Alex Toth

Alex Toth did a lot of design work for the animated cartoons I watched in the 60's. He worked on most of my favorites including Jonny Quest, the Herculoids, the New Adventures of Huck Finn, and Space Ghost. Click on the title of this entry and it will take you to a killer gallery of Toth designs. Man, I wish they'd release all those old cartoons on DVD. I've got Jonny Quest but I want them all...especially the Herculoids.

Ethan Jack Harrington

I met Ethan at last night's Lustre opening. His figurative work is vivid and loose and I like it alot. Oh how I want to get into a figure drawing class again. And a print studio. And a paint studio. And I want to learn encaustics. And...
SIGH. It never ends.

Janet Nechama Miller

Amy Huddleston

Craig Thompson

Jon Burgerman

Jennifer Diamanti

Great figurative work incorporating collage. Really nice.

Glue

Great show at the Linda Hodges Gallery. This image is Beauty by Daphne Minkoff. Great stuff!

Tarda Mucho

Someone emailed me this link. I love the spare quality of the collage work. It challenges my "fill the space" mentality.
