Coffee paintings

 

These are paintings we did with coffee.  I cooked the coffee down to get the different shades. The first two are Radish's and the second two are Alex's.  Coffee is real fun to paint with because it takes forever to build up your tones... and it smells yummy.

Made/Modified : Goggles & Top Hat

It started by buying a cheap pair of costume goggles and a cheap Top hat. All together it probably cost me under $20-25. The goggles were an ugly matte silver so I spray painted them copper and antiqued them. I also replaced the cheap strap with a brown leather strap and a vintage buckle. As for the top hat some re-shaping was done as well as a coat of burgundy acrylic paint. I replaced the band with a hand tattered one. Also I did some fancy embroidery on the side. I may post some details later as well as a second pair of goggles that I designed.

Firestarter

   

This is a photo manipulation of Radish. It started as a photo shoot to show off some of Radish's new threads. Later I was fooling around with the photo in photoshop and came up with this. May come in handy eventually for an illustration.

We went to a party in the fall in chicago to see my old friend Brittany.  Brittany lived on a commune with me in Virginia.  Her house was completely surrounded on all sides with miles of corn!

We had a lot of fun that night running and crawling through the cornfield, along with Dane Deasy, who was a bunch of fun and took a million awesome pix including this one, and one that Alex used to turn me into a zombie.  Here is Dane Deasy's website. 

Here is Alex's cornfield zombie nightmare.

Sci Fi Book Jacket "DOOM MAGNETIC!"

  

This is the original sketch for a book written by William Pauley III titled "DOOM MAGNETIC!" due to some error on my part the main character has a 8 ball eye instead of a cue ball (which is what was intended) But, that will be all fixed by the finish.
