Femme Fun In The Sun.


Thanks to everyone who came out for the opening night party last Friday. It was a bitching turn out.

I’m actually thinking this will probably be my last art show for a little while now, so I can get back to concentrating on my sequential work with the odd pin-up on the side. I do like art shows, but I’m a publisher at heart, truth be told. Watching people sip booze and eye-up my hanging artwork makes me very nervous. Given the choice, I’d pick my art on the page over the gallery wall any day. But it is fun to have the odd show.

I would like to quickly clear up one question I’ve been asks a lot recently. Yes, all the artwork in the Violent Femmes exhibition is new. There’s nothing in there from last year’s Halloween SLASH-UPS show. It’s all new stuff. It’s more Brides heavy artwork this time around, with zero Babayka (to fit the femme fatale theme of the show), as well as a couple of fun side project pin-ups in the Mature corner. With Mercedes The Muse as Rose from Troma’s Rose And Viktor: No Mercy. And a sneak peek at a secret new pin-up I’m currently working on. I can assure everyone it is not the same show as last years.

Here’s a couple of photos of what people can expect for those brave enough to enter the crypt during the next couple of weeks (Fun Fact: Crypts are surprisingly cool during the hot weather, as I found out when I had to hang my art on a super hot sunny day recently.)

Also, I have tried to make sure there’s new Babayka-Lives action going on during the show‘s run, just before its summer break. So tune in this weekend, as the mercenaries complete the first part of their mission.
