C is for Cookie and Cookies are for ME!

July 31, 2010 – Cookie Dough Masks Despite the warnings given to me by more experienced cookie makers, I failed to acknowledge that the cookie dough would flatten out while it baked.  But Problem Solving 101 kicked in and all was not for nothing.

Shamrocks and Gas Masks

Today’s art is pain.  Pain staking attention to detail by the tattoo artist,  pain in the ass customers like me who want tiny ambigrams tattooed in the forehead of a gorilla gas mask, and the pain that comes with being tattooed.  But is it worth it?  It is if you have the right art and…

Don’t drop the gas mask…

July 24, 2010 – Carved Soap Gas Mask Make sure you wash behind your ears fool.  This one is carved from a simple bar of Dove soap. Anyone’s life truly lived consists of work, sunshine, exercise, soap, plenty of fresh air, and a happy contented spirit. -Lillie Langtry

Don the Teflon…

July 22, 2010 – Teflon Mask We use teflon sheets on our heat press when we’re making shirts at Imprint Revolution.  Here’s a mask made of some old teflon sheets.  Was there ever a teflon superhero?  If there was: Was his catchphrase “I’m here to get you out of a sticky situation!”?….. Nice.

Man in the Iron Mustache

July 14, 2010 – Iron Mustache Mask Call it a little steampunk but this one was more inspired by personal influences.  I cut and reshaped a drama mask, made the mustache from polymer clay and finished it all off with some acrylic paint.  Now who wants a mustache ride?  (Too much?  I had to.) -Freehand…

Governments should be afraid of their people.”  What a great quote!  Look I’m not necessarily…

Funny Munny

July 11, 2010 – Custom Vinyl Toy w/ Gas Mask #1 Ok here’s a little math problem for you… A guinea pig leaves Santa Monica on a train at 57 MPH, the same train that is carrying radioactive waste that’s being used in secret government testing.  At the same time a truck full of Star…

Boop Oop A Doop!

July 10, 2010 – Betty Boop Gas Mask Can you believe this broad is gonna turn 80 years old this August?  She was created by Max Fleischer and her black and white flapper ways paved the road for animated sex symbols like Jessica Rabbit.  In ’93 there was rumblings of a Betty Boop feature film…

Locked in each human skull is a little world all its own.

July 8, 2010 – Dual-Skull Goalie Mask Hockey masks and skulls may seem a bit cliche, but that’s why I put a twist on it.  This bad boy is a skull when it’s upside down too.  One day I’ll figure out why I’m so preoccupied with turning things upside down and still having them function…

If you’re feeling froggy… jump.

July 7,2010 – Frog G.A.S.
