Artist's Comments

Well, back to the BizaRRe!!!!

I have wrestled with this silly concept for 6 months, easily making it the most time and emotion consuming thing i have ever done. Started out as a battle, ended up as Peace. A little metaphorical, methinks.

A partial list of photos used in this 50 layer, 615 megabyte, 70 x 90 inch monstrosity:

Vervet, Alligator and Cormorant skulls
The living (sic) head of 'my' pitbull
McFarlane action figure "Mr. Obersmith"
Fox action figure "Newborn"
Van de Kamp Boston Baked Beans (too 'ripe' for human consumption)
Carved Balinese Horse and Dragon figures
Glittery sand photographed in Dana Point

Bizarre indeed! :) I actually like this better if you don't put the beans in or maybe do some modification to them. But that's just me, I think it's just because I absolutely can't stand BEANS!!! :D Still a cool image though! :)

Yep, that's bizarre. =) Makes me think of Hieronymus Bosch.
Looks like he's making friends with the bean sea monster.

the endless imagination of skulptie's imagination.... maybe we'll find the end if we sail across the sea of beans far enough!!!

^_^ this is fantastic! I think you should get an award for the most creative use of props. I don't easily recognize half of your sources, although i'm sure they're in there. It's wonderful!!!! :heart: I think my fav picture where amazing props were used was the one with the meat, and the glass elephant. this one is really funny and so cool. *pats you on the back*

wow, this is really, disgustingly attentive-to-detail-ly well done! I can't find anything even close to an error it's that well done.

I noticed the beans before I read the description and I started laughing, they're so random yet they work so very well. Also the teeth on everything make me happy, everything should have teeth surrounding it.

Keep up the good work, can't wait to see what you spawn next.
