the city, the country, and back

Filed under: painting, peace, poop — sebastian @ 8:03 pm

How ill is this van. I met the guy who drives it. He was about sixty and he was walking around painting peace signs on walls and smoking cloves. He kept referring to “the kids” and although I had no clue what he was talking about, I found myself agreeing with him on every point.

no hands track stands

wow
What a kawink e dink, I found a sign in Greenpoint that had Zach’s mantra on it

we put up some posters for jake’s show

then sarah jumped a fence

to get into this ill place

mother nature was all around us

I saw a little girl hug a huge purple vagina

Then I got to watch this little boy get born . And peep the tombstone, the circle of life. Deep stuff, I know.

So then I went to this barn where I made a painting.

Here it is in its very early stages.

And here is the rabbit whose head I ate.

Here it is again

The field from my house upstate to the barn is a veritable minefield of poopies. The above stool is just some inoffensive deer doody, but there was some pretty serious bear poos out there as well. And one thing that might have actually been Clayface, from the batman cartoon. Below is a picture I took of it.

it was pretty upstate

there was a deer

here is the painting

then I was back in the city
and I found a cobra. Bye.

… in the studio

Filed under: painting, photos — sebastian @ 5:01 am

This is my “studio.” Sometimes things get made in here, like these photos. Click on them and you can see them considerably larger. Don’t click on the one of Elise though or I will get jealous when I am drunk later on in the week.

Here is my paint and solvents, on what used to be some wooden bookshelves. Inevitably fire will ravage the entire building, and it will be my fault.

Here is the aformentioned one of my gf holding her boobs. As you can see she has become an integral part of the ambiance of the place.
Here is a wall covered in black construction paper and a ladder.
Here is a Cesco shadow emerging from the paper. How cute is this guy right?
Here is a painting that I worked on for a while, it didn’t turn out so great.
Here is a painting that I sort of whipped up. It is better than the other one. I know, crazy! I like in both photos how it isn’t entirely clear where the painting stops and the wall starts. It feels like the paintings could be just bits of the space that are removable and recontextualizable(it’s late).
Here are some more pieces of construction paper. I skeeted on them and made this pattern. Initially it seemed like a pretty crummy endeavor, but I am still at it (wink wink) and the nift factor is rising I think.

Here is a little cherub I am painting. Since this photo was taken I have accidentally turned him into somewhat of a tranny. I will be sure to include the inspiring photos next time.

Arts and Farts

Filed under: gallery, painting, sculpture — sebastian @ 8:24 pm

Here it is, the Ping Ting Thing, the veritable Clean Plate Club of 2007. Since the Blog is just up and running I thought I might post some photos of my work from my senior show. So, with some further and a bit of ado…

My homie Baby Bry Bry calls this one “Seb as a Sexy Chick” with an inappropriate amount of luster.

More naked fellas… I know right?

This is a pen drawing, not type it took me much longer than it was worth, since nobody really noticed it. I put it in a group show at Secret Project Robot in June, and it has been floating around lower Manhattan with Cobra ever since.

one of my rooms

These are some pretty crappy photos that I snapped right before the show came down so sorry for the quality, or lack thereof. My ill part rabbi, part handy(wo)man, part photographer, all lesbian, aunt Devon took some much nicer photos, but I lost the cd they were on.

Also it is worth mentioning that there was this other kid who painted these dope sexy demon dragon ladies that I would have posted, but every camera that photographed them blew up in my hands. Here is something I found online to give you an idea.It was in a similar vein, only much less technically accomplished.
