A new creature has come in from Dean Judd in Whitehaven, United Kingdom. Created using Vista Paint. Nice job Dean, been a long while since we've had a new creation!
Maggiestein Monster Bitch created digitally by Paul Lagden - Polyvinyl Craftsmen, Wobbly Lamp, artist and all-round Southend-on-Sea good egg. Get in touch with Mr Lagden via Facebook for commissions.
Wow! Six months since the last Creature landed on the doormat. Well worth the wait though. This cut paper creation comes from Brian Gubicza in Beverly, Ma. USA
Anybody out there feel in the mood to make a monster? Come on Halloween's just round the corner.
Nora says, "My monster is "iFrank" and he's listening to Frankenstein by the Edgar Winter Group (of course) on his iPod. He's completely digital (Painter and Photoshop)".
Always please to get a new piece of Frank art from a friend of the blog. Cheers to Lee Healey for another brilliant take on the monster. This one created with Pitt artist pen. Sorry for the loust photo Lee, my scanner has died and I had to use my camera, will try and get a better one uploaded over the weekend.
After an extended break, here are a new batch of monsters from Susie Garner's students at Mesa State College in Colorado. I'll be posting them over the next few days.
These three collage pieces come from Chocolatine et Stooby in France.
They have a call for lighthouse themed ATCs if anyone fancies sending them some art. Technique is completely free, size is 2.5" x 3.5", name/signature/date written on the back. Deadline is 30th June 2010 with documentation to all in July and August. Send you work to: Chocolatine et Scooby Ecluse 75 1, hameau de la tuilerie F-21170 Lapperiere sur Saone France
After a two month gap, I received a new piece today in the mail from George Kovats, Co, USA, rendered in pen and coloured pencil. I thought this project had run its course but if anyone else out there still has a new take on the monster, I'd love to see it.
Here's a little Festive Frankie I knocked up with pen and watercolours this afternoon to wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy new year. Thanks a million to everybody who has contributed or visited this year and made this a very enjoyable project.
My daughter Jamie, who's 12, has also entered into the Christmas monster spirit, here's her Chrimbo Creature.
Thanks to friend of Patchwork, wiec? for this fantastic Christmas present. It's a miniature Frank portrait painted with acrylics on canvas. A very merry Christmas to you wiec? and all the regular visitors here.
My neighbour and fellow blogger Mondo does a regular podcast with his mucker Piley called Podrophenia. For their Xmas broadcast they asked me to join in, choose a couple of festive nuggets and blather on about Christmas related nonsense. If you fancy checking it out for a few Christmas tunes you aren't likely to hear anywhere else this Chrimbo, go here.
I am attempting to amass a large collection of portraits of Frankenstein's Monster in as many different styles and in as many different media as possible as an ongoing art project. The only stipulation is that the size is 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches (standard artist trading card size) and that each card has name, date, title and anything else you care to add on the back.
I welcome cards from both amateur and professional artists.
I will be leaving blank cards with instructions and mailing address in galleries, colleges, art shops, on buses, handing them out in the street and wherever else I can think of.
If you are reading this and would like to get involved, please send a portrait to:
A Patchwork Of Flesh 45 Silversea Drive Westcliff on Sea Essex SS0 9XD United Kingdom
Each card I receive will be uploaded here to produce an on-line gallery, I then hope to put on an exhibition of these cards in a gallery.
