Working from an alphabetical list of 500 of the greatest artists in history, I plan to create a piece in response to every one of them. I am also the Bent Objects project guy. This blog will serve as a place for me to experiment outside of that approach.
Plus, I'm trying to have some fun.

Post #1 - The Nubian Giraffe
Original painting by Jacques Laurent Agasse - 1827
I'm no good at Photoshop, but I don't let that stop me.
Made with Photoshop and the Imovie application on our Mac.
Thank goodness - I thought for a minute this was going to be a major change of direction ie. a serious art commentary! Looking forward to 'Wheatfield with Flies'...
I already follow, and love, your Bent Objects blog. I would like to do the same for your awesome new project. Could you provide an option to add this blog to Google Reader? Thanks!
Not to mention it's not even biologically possible!
Everyone knows that his hat would have crumpled up a bit in process as well as the 45 degree angle could NOT have been maintained and would have (at the very least) moved at least 8 degrees.
This is fun. Also, kinda synchronistic (is that a word) as I'm reading the book ZARAFA, about the first giraffe to be seen in Europe. It arrived at the Menagerie in Paris 1827, so I guess this was the portrait of it!
Ha! Love it. Looking forward to following your progress on this!
ReplyDeleteHahaha, wonderful, Terry! Sounds like a project with great potential!

ReplyDeleteFunny! I concur with Brit Star. We need a reader option. I don't want to miss anything. I look forward to seeing more!
ReplyDeleteHaving his head go skeletal while still wearing the hat upon exit cracked me up.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing what you come up with next.
Third the Reader option! Don't want to miss the other 499!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea! I can't view this from work at all so will have to see it when I get hoe but I look forward to seeing what else you do!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Very Terry Gilliam.
ReplyDeleteThanks all! This should be interesting. Some will be good, some terrible, but non-stop interesting for me.
ReplyDeleteSo great! I concur with the others - looking forward to following your new blog.
ReplyDeletea ha ha - too funny! Can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued by your faecal obsession. The alimentary system is so fascinating: art as consumption. Love your work.
ReplyDeletevery nice!looking forward for all your future work!
ReplyDeleteThis is horrible! What were you thinking??

I demand a refund. Have your lawyers call mine.
