The rootbeer vinyl on the Thrashman is awesome.

The Trashcan fig is, well, interesting...

I wish there could be a version of Trashcan where he turns his beard into a car like this:

WOW!! Score!....Soooo "jelly" :D What a great addition to your Buta collection! Great to see again. I've no idea whether that became a print, would love to know if a skullbrainer ended up with the original.

^^^ That's gotta be one of my favorite Bwana paintings I've seen. How'd you end up digging that up?

Just some light Googleage. It took a surprisingly small amount of effort!

Yeah, I really can't complain. Too bad that the painting is probably sitting in the gallery's storage shed rather than hanging on an enthusiast's wall.

There's always their I want this as a print! button: Odds are nothing would come of it, but it couldn't hurt for the few of us that would be interested to let them know.

Ol' Trashy is adapting to life in Michigan very well, but he's still looking for you everywhere!

Any other Trash-havers still active here? I'd love to see some more snaps of his wanderings.

(Don't forget to send a note to the gallery about having a print made of the painting that this thread was supposed to be about!)

Woah thanks guys.
I still have my trashcan. I look at it everyday in the mirror whe ni brush my teeth. i don't know what happened with that painting. I remember it not selling, and me being all proud of it... But i think it did eventually find a home. No prints... I am sure I have the original shot of it somewhere.
