SCOTT HOCKING artshow at HILBERRY GALLERY in Ferndale, Michigan




SCOTT HOCKING has had artshows all over the world including THE DETROIT INSTITUTE OF ARTS and the SUZANNE HILBERRY GALLERY. When he asked me to be in his latest show I said "cool!". So then he gave me a BEAVER and told me to paint it up real nice, like one of those public art projects that are happening all over the USA. You know the ones where they give you a big fiberglass cow or some other animal and they ask you to paint it in your style to make it look nice so they can display it on the street??? Well Scott Hocking decided to buy a bunch of animals with his own money at the real-fiberglass-animals-store then he "fixed-them-up" and then he gave them to a bunch of artists to paint. I don't know what the show is called but it sure sounds fun!!! So here's my BEAVER I just got, it's caught in a trap so I'm gonna paint it like an ICE CREAM SUNDAE!!! Then JIM STORM taught me about BONDO so I made a CHERRY for the top!!! It's almost done!!!

Thanks for all the good times CPOP!!! There will be something for everyone this year at NOISE CAMP!!! Have a snack at the RAW FOODS HUT. Make something nice at the ARTS&CRAFTS TABLE. Kids will love getting a NOISE CAMP haircut, adults will love taking a drink from the HOLLOW LOG or getting FIRST-AID from the NOISE CAMP NURSES (this year Sarah & Sarah from WOUND). And everyone will love the harsh electronic noise coming from PRINCESS DRAGONMOM'S tent at midnite!!!

BOUNTY FROM THE SEA

There was a QUEEN theme artshow&concert at the Belmont in Hamtramck on Saturday June 30. I decided to try and draw the NEWS OF THE WORLD album cover as fast as I could and completely from memory. As an 8 or 10 year old I used to love looking at that cover when I went to Tim Weidner's house (he was a couple of years older and he had teenage brothers & sisters. There were a lot of cool albums there by KISS, ALICE COOPER, CHEAP TRICK, QUEEN and TED NUGENT). This cover and many others I used to look at were confusing to my little-kid mind. Why was the robot killing the band??? I hadn't seen the cover in a long time and I don't own a copy. I think I did a pretty good job!!!

HOLLYWOOD MOVIE???

Might this painting appear in a Hollywood movie??? It was purchased for use in MY BLUEBERRY NIGHTS, the first English language film by KAR WAI WONG (the Hong Kong director that made 2046 and IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE). I sure hope it makes the final cut!!!
