I would bet many of the artists around here would do a whole lot better than this:
Basically, found art of lesser value elevated to monsterous wonderfullness by kaijufying it.. I think.

It would be great to get a bunch of artists and have them do this for a show. Anyone wanna play curator and get gallery space for it? |

^ That's an awesome show idea. I'd want to find Thomas Kinkade style paintings to mess up. |

But anyway, I just sent an email out to Kirby. We'll see what he has to say. It might be a little tough because you're asking artists to go out and find a painting to paint over. That will eat into the time spent for actually painting but, no harm in asking. So yeah...email sent. Let's see what Kirby says. |

Kirby isn't interested. He likes the idea but won't go through with a show. Gave some nice feedback. Ah well...like I said, no harm in asking.

I (with the great help of Damion Silver) already did that a few years back. It was called "Visually Remastered" and encouraged artists to visit local thrift stores, garage sales, etc. and rescue a piece of work. Then to incorporate their subject matter, style, etc. into the works. The idea was to give them new life and a secret collaboration with an artist who may never know. The outcome was actually quite good. Abe (Lincoln Jr.) was part of it. Here's a link from Damions blog: http://www.blog.damionsilver.com/2008/0 ... march-8th/ |

Yeah the specifics escape me, but there's been a few of these shows. Fun stuff. A bunch of us got stuck w/ clowns once. Pretty much every one just got exponentially creepier. I really like that first painting. Makes me think of Hayao Miyazaki. |

lighted glas could be cool. I've been wanting to screen print on that glow light panel stuff. You can buy it in sheets, it has sort of a matte finish...then screen print an image, plug it in and there you go. |
