Gallery work

Just had a reception for our illustration show a few days ago! Here's some work I had up:

I also had on display my Astro-man and Alien but I took way better photos of those guys at the beach:

It's important to me to save (some people say "hoard") things that have been tossed away or left behind like that hubcap on Astro-man's face. So everything is made of free items (dumpster divin) and scrap materials.

Wizard of Oz House...With Legs

My piece for the Wizard of Oz theme show at my school! It was fun to make and I won a giant lollipop for it...

Henrietta

I wanted to make Henrietta from Mr.Rogers Neighborhood but I couldn't remember what her house looked like...I mean I know it was in a tree but I couldn't find any reference photos to refresh my memory of some details. So I just mashed up what I could remember from the show.

Subterranean Homesick Alien

I figure this could count for Illustration Friday's "Seperated" even though it's a bit of a stretch.

Sorry for awful photos. My camera really hates colors like this. :(

"Subterranean Homesick Alien" by Radiohead

The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer air

I live in a town
Where you can't smell a thing
You watch your feet
For cracks in the pavement

Up above
Aliens hover
Making home movies
For the folks back home

Of all these weird creatures
Who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves
And live for their secrets

They're all uptight
Uptight.. [x7]

I wish that they'd swoop down in a country lane
Late at night when I'm driving
Take me on board their beautiful ship
Show me the world as I'd love to see it

I'd tell all my friends
But they'd never believe
They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely

I'd show them the stars
And the meaning of life
They'd shut me away
But I'd be all right
All right..

I'm just uptight
Uptight.. [x7]
