I am participating in this year’s Vinyl Thoughts 4 group show, which occurs Thursday, September 12 at The Quixotic World in Dallas, Texas.  I have submitted several pieces, some older, some brand new, but many have never been seen in person.  Of then new works, The Wander and ShadowSkull (seen below) will be making their first appearance.  For more information about the show, visit www.vinylthoughtsartshow.com and www.vinylthoughtsnation.com.

I had the honor of being invited by Ms. Zukie (Alison Perez) to participate in the Zukie Vs. The World show. The Zukie is Alison’s new do-it-yourself (DIY) vinyl platform, and for this show many very talented artists (and then me) were asked to take the Zukie and put our own spin on it.  This will be the second time that I will have something on display at ToyTokyo’s TTUnderground this year (the other being my custom Outer Space Men).

Zukie’s are HERE!

SHHHH, Zukies don’t chatter a word!

They speak heart to heart and soul to soul! Expressing thoughts and emotions from their hearts in puffy bubbles bursting from their tiny bodies. Projecting colors and images by the energy they embody.

Zukies are so CHUBBY! They’re ready to burst from all the love they contain!

The DIY Zukie is a New Blank Vinyl Base for Artist to customize something new, fresh and CHUBBY!!

So… here is my submission for the Zukie Vs. The World show, The Provocateurs.  If any of you happen to be in NYC during the time that this show runs, I highly recommend you stopping by and checking out all of the awesome Zukies!  If you can’t make it, you can also follow along with the fun at the Zukie Vs The World Facebook event page.

Another holiday, another new piece of art.  Previously, I posted a work in progress picture of a custom Mighty Mugg I was working on for the Cellar Door Gifts & Gallery.  Well the piece is complete and was accepted into their juried show “Unhappy Holidays”.  The exhibit opening will be taking place Friday, December 10 7:00pm – 9:00pm.  If you have a chance, you should check out the show, along with all of the other cool pieces and dark items for sale (I just went by today to make my drop off, and have to say the store is pretty cool).

So here he is,  Edward the Undead Elf…

For more pics of him, see my Art Gallery, under the Vinyl / Toys / Misc. category.
