Souvenirs of the Work Process

Occasionally, while we work (painting, drawing, dancing...), a piece of work presents itself. A piece that doesn't necessarily work with the complete body of work, yet, it ain't so bad that you throw it in the trash. We like to call these souvenirs of the work process.

During the making of our 40 Days exhibit we had a few pieces that fit the bill. First Evel is our Test Pilot. The title is literal - literally! We hadn't worked together creatively, in 2 years (almost to the day) and the first piece we put together was of a friend dressed as Evel Knievel.


finished piece:





The next was The Revolution will be Twittered. A piece done in appreciation of Anonymous, or anyone, who raises hell with government, Scientology or big business comfortably from their own home; cubicle; bunker; poolside; but inspired by the Guy Fawkes (a character from Alan Moore's and David Llyod's V for Vendetta) mask they don while protesting in public.



finished piece(s):





The last we'd like to share is St. Walter. A little fun with generic mouse ears, make-up and a pinwheel.

Anti-Disney art has become a cliché and this just the product of a little fun we had while working out ideas. Disney doesn't offend us in the least and with a new daughter in the house I suppose it's only a matter of time before we're shoveling money at that damn mouse.



Finished piece:





These pieces, and a few others, are available and will be on display at the gallery this Friday night (though not in the same room as the main exhibit) from 5-10pm, during the exhibit.
