I got a translucent blue version of this bad boy. Ill list it for you guys to see. Hes my absolute favorite version. I have a glow in the dark wolf monster from Karz Works to.
Not sure if this is considered "Fine art" More like surrealism or dark surrealism at best. Nothing wrong with that though since im a big fan of surrealism in general but "Fine Art" to me are like those extremely boring landscape paintings and shit like that.
Francis Bacon's influence is undeniable. Just look at the work of David Lynch, Trent Reznor, and other Bacon devotees.

Ah ok well thanks for the clarification. I always assumed it was a genre with painting in general. Its still a cool as hell painting. Would like to see more transparent vinyl colors done with this toy like the blue one i have. I know there is a red one to but thats about it for right now i think.
