BWANA'S show at Giant Robot

Just got back from Bwana's opening at Giant Robot........

This is the first time I met Bwana & I've got to say he
is a really friendly guy.......... he spent time with everyone
chatting & answering all of their questions about his art.......

I even had him doodle in my sketch book.......

Loved the show - no vinyl, although Giant Robot had
Edward the Gator & Gold-Toothed Steven for sale..........

His paintings were whimsical & colorful as always and my
favorite was a wood carving Bwana did of Steven the Bat
that was in GR's front window - but was too dark to photograph....

Please excuse the lousy photos ........ at least they will give you an idea
of what was on display, until someone else posts better shots.

I thought that I'd see a few Skullbrainers there, but all I met was
Tom from Chicago, who happened to be in town on a business trip....
Probably others came later as I arrived at the opening......

Thanks for posting the photos! It looks like a great show!

 

awesome! thank u sir for the pics

 

Bwana's art is THAT aweome. I can't wait till i snag one of his originals...

 

the killer painting is fantastic, very cosmic.
shame there were no customs at the show.

 

Show was cool, Bwana was even cooler, it was nice to meet some other SBer's, well one at least, LamourSupreme.




I also picked up the piece Bwana is standing in from of.....

 

arrrgghhhhhhh
OLD GREGG


scary

 

do you want a glass of Baileys?

Thanks for sharing some pics. I love the fact that you have Old Gregg as your avatar and a Mighty Boosh quote from the same episode in your sig LamourSupreme!

SOOOOOO SICK!!!!! I can't wait!!! I'm heading down to check it out next weekend!!

 

Thanks for the pics! That show looked cool! I dig Bwana's shirt!

 

Thanks guys for posting flicks. Great paintings. Love the wooden frames.

 

That painting was the best one! So nice! I love staring at it I bet its way better in person

 

That rainbow dragon guy's cool. I thought I once saw a vinyl of it, or maybe it was a low run resin. Anyone have one, post some pics.

 

was talking to Bwana about that. Not out yet. This painting was much better in person. Photos never seem to capture the vibrancy of his colors.

 

yes

thanks so much to everybody that turned out. It was an awesome NYC experience. I was stoked to meet some board members.
grny.net just put everything available up online for purchase a few minutes ago.

 

That giant Steven is amazing. Someone said it's carved from wood -- looks like it could even be made of Mexican ziricote wood. Can't tell too well from the pic, would love to see better pics of that piece, if anyone got any.

 

yep

yeah. it's zircote or ziricote or a bunch of other names too. It's so flippin' hard. It was ultimate fun and gigantic pain all at once. the piece is based on this drawing a kid named Jaden did of steven
