a few recent paintings

[whatyoumaydo]

Here are three recent nonsensical things. This is the type of personal work I do. I take images from my memory, combine them with rediculous scenarios and maybe add a touch of political statement or hidden meaning. Mainly, I just make pictures I think are a little funny.

Please give me your feedback. Criticism is more than welcome. Thanks.

anything to say? anybody?

[deliciouspeter]

I think the concepts are very funny, put a smile on my face. The art is not really my style, but beyond that I don't have any cogent criticism.

what in the world is that last one? Is that a huge propane tank?

HELL YEAH. those are awesome. Johnson's message is going to be my new wallpaper.

[aesir]

are those 2 elephants MAKING OUT!?!?!

[Tully]

I think they're fighting, Aesir. That's how elephants fight.

Beyond that, really nifty concepts. Their randomness is an asset.

Thanks for the comments guys. The elephants are fighting, but making out works too. Also, the thing behind Johnson is an amalgamation of a few different tanks and machines. Its purpose is simply to sit back there and look like machinery. I'm really glad some of you like them, I was worried that I wouldn't get any response to them at all.

Would anyone care to comment on the technical aspects of them?

Thanks again.
