Post Louie Cordero's "Lead Brother" busts
I am happy for my friend Louie who recently was featured in the new issue a very prominent mag in the US.

Louie is currently working on a project, and man, these look promising....

Reminds me of many recent China artists sculptures.
Love the paintings in the back.

Those paintings were sold to Osage Gallery, incidentally.

Those busts are in Louie's studio.

This is based on a painting? I feel like I have seen this image before.

Thanks for the links! His horror stuff reminds me of Suehiro Maruo while his psychedelic stuff reminds me of Keiichi Tanaami and neither in a bad way.
I really like his ink work here:

I haven't received ay info on the pricing yet, but i can always ask.

He will be in Hong Kong in Osage in a few weeks for those interested. He will open a new show with paintings and a monster around 7 to 8 feet tall MADE FROM CHEWED BUBBLEGUM!

Hahahaha! Then it also works as "performance art" right!!?!?

I've always wanted to set up an "ant farm" inside a giant piece of clear vinyl.
I just haven't come across anything large enough that was affordable.

Sooo true and here I was just bummed that I'd have to drill a bunch of holes in a big piece of vinyl for air!

Mind-bending. I'm assuming he put a nice thick coating of lacquer over it?
