 BWANA'S show at Giant Robot Just got back from Bwana's opening at Giant Robot........
This is the first time I met Bwana & I've got to say he
is a really friendly guy.......... he spent time with everyone
chatting & answering all of their questions about his art.......
I even had him doodle in my sketch book.......
Loved the show - no vinyl, although Giant Robot had
Edward the Gator & Gold-Toothed Steven for sale..........
His paintings were whimsical & colorful as always and my
favorite was a wood carving Bwana did of Steven the Bat
that was in GR's front window - but was too dark to photograph....
Please excuse the lousy photos ........ at least they will give you an idea
of what was on display, until someone else posts better shots.
I thought that I'd see a few Skullbrainers there, but all I met was
Tom from Chicago, who happened to be in town on a business trip....
Probably others came later as I arrived at the opening......

That rainbow dragon guy's cool. I thought I once saw a vinyl of it, or maybe it was a low run resin. Anyone have one, post some pics.

That giant Steven is amazing. Someone said it's carved from wood -- looks like it could even be made of Mexican ziricote wood. Can't tell too well from the pic, would love to see better pics of that piece, if anyone got any.

yep yeah. it's zircote or ziricote or a bunch of other names too. It's so flippin' hard. It was ultimate fun and gigantic pain all at once. the piece is based on this drawing a kid named Jaden did of steven
