Some new stuff.....

got this guy done....8x10 enamel on clayboard....from the tattoo design I did a while ago.

"Death is for the Birds"

And...I have a few tiki paintings in the works....but here is a study I did this week. Looks like I was possessed by LLT on this stuff WTF...that better stop..

B

Right on Clysdalle!! I love the birdie....he looks like he should be posted up on the shoulder of one of the 7 horseman :-) he would make a killa tattoo as well.

Those tikis could be bitchin mugs...Time to hook up your kiln boss!

Some great stuff on your site.

Love the pic on the intro page. That upright bass is awesome.

TT

Hmmmmm.... I feel a new tattoo coming on....

Hey thanks guys!

Babs...you're right, these would make some cool mugs I'll have to start tossing some clay around. Only downside is that where the panel is located for my electrical I can't run the kiln here. Guess I'll have to wait till the next house!

BaddT...I wish that was a stand up bass but it's a violin! I do have a panel from an old bass that I'm going to paint up for the Oceanside Day of the Dead festival in November.

Trav, are you going to get shnackered and do it yourself again like a real man? :wink:

B

I would be happy to fire your prototype mugs for you...get some clay :)

Is that a challenge?..lol

C

Babs...I'm going to have to get on it! I have clay sitting here just beggin to be molded. Looks like you are starting your own art collective down there these days....some great stuff!!

...and trav, I'll pick up the run and start sharpening needles!

I'm digging the Death is for the Birds painting. The tikis all suck. Just kidding. The LLT edge is there a little I guess. I'd still say they have your style to them.
Nice work.

I

Gorgeous awesome stuff! I love how the bird one and the black and white tikis are visceral and fun!

Take care,

I.

It looks like someone has been dipping into the ZIPFIZZ!! Nice stuff man!!

you WISH! :lol:

Stoked that you're re-examining Tiki after so many years of neglect!

Glad you're doodling and having fun!
The times when there are no pressures or pre-conceiving
are sometimes the best for sketching out new concepts!
I could see at least 4 of these as big carvings....or mugs!
get down to see Babs!
he's the Wizard of Clay!

"LLTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.........."

A huge shout out to deadbeat magazine for the 5 page spread they gave me in the current issue out now! They cover some of the best lowbrow, tiki, kustom kulture, hotrods and pinups around. They were great to work with and just keep putting out great stuff.

I'm excited to share the issue with Ivy and Tidwell! Kick ass! Swing over and grab an issue!

Here is a link to my spread!

Congrats on the spread..!!!!
Well written article and great eye-candy..

That's pretty cool. How much does a five page ad in that pamphlet cost?

Buzzy Out!

Wow, great sprea mate, congrats. Now carve some tikis! :lol:

Congrats!
less words-more pictures...
the way an art article should go....
That was a stretch comparing you with Francis Bacon.....
frankly, i don't see it....
(he's a real artist,y'know!)
wish they would've shown one of your carved Tikis....
Anyways...Congrats on that!
hopefully it'll bring more folks into the Clysdalle fold.....

B

HELL YES, brother.

def a hint of great things to come.

despite that voodoo doll that Kinny has of u in his studio.

congrats!!!

also got a BigToe voodoo doll at the studio!
and a francis bacon one too!
:lol:

Clydesdale is a stone-cold fox!

B

i never liked francis bacon...i thought he was a poseur. is he still alive?

if he is, i might go light a bag of dog-doo on fire in front of his front door, then ding-dong-ditch.

:lol:

;-P

Great stuff Dave. Congrats! Good seeing you at Planet Rooth.

Man, leave for a day and look how my thread gets all spammed up!!! :wink:

Thanks Trav and hewey! Buzzy, I'll send you the ad rates...super cheap, and you can use your Oasis pic!

LLT....the bacon comparison was a mistake....I said I like beans and franks!

Bigtoe....thanks man, just trying to pester as many people as I can and slide into every opportunity, I am your grasshopper!

Skinny and Matt...hope to see you guys again soon!!!

And now on to some more spamming! I wanted to test some time-lapse video stuff so I decided to film a Zombie roller derby poster I'm working on for a friend in Florida....here is the result!

GROG gave one of your BANDITO shirts to one of the artists at work who does artwork for the Day of the Dead. He REALLY liked the shirt, but said you could tell a gringo did the artwork, because a Latino would have spelled it BANDIDO. But, what can you expect from an artist that puts 3 musicians on a shirt and calls it DOS HOMBRES, and can't even spell Clydesdale?


[ Edited by: GROG 2008-09-30 09:26 ]

this discussion has gone back and forth on the name...and bandito with a to is to my knowledge the little bandit......and is almost interchangeable with bandido....Always just haters who bring it up!!!!

...and come on....NOBODY counts the drummers.....they are all Ringos.....just a placeholder :wink:

clysdale.....well....you're right...crappy spellin

[ Edited by: Clysdalle 2008-10-01 11:27 ]
