80's

So I did some awesome pics for the Summerfest last week and I thought I would share them with you today.  They are basically fun versions I did of TV shows I loved. Hope you enjoy.

Summerfest

So it has been quite a while since i posted, I'm sorry.  I moved and had a lot stuff going on, but I promise I will post at least once a week (unless I forget). So this last weekend I went to Logan for the Summerfest.  It was awesome, I did not want to go originally.  I haven't done really well in the past, but this year it was so much fun people loved my stuff. I did not sell all I wanted but I made people laugh, and I meet a lot of really nice people who made me feel good about my work.  So I really did not need a lot of sales.  I had some Pet Rocks, a few new pieces,  but my most popular piece was the Muppet Avengers. I really do hope the make a sort about it some day.  I just want to say thanks to everyone who laughed at my expense, hopefully I can continue making you chuckle. 

Christmas backdrops

Here are a couple of backdrops I did for Christmas parties. The first on is a Dr. Seuss, Grinch style. It is painted on a 12x9 canvas. The second is a train winter painting, it is also on a 12x9 canvas. I am renting them out for 50$ so if you are interested my email is joshuabostwick@hotmail.com

TMNT Logos

These are logos I did for the Turtles, Purple Dragons, and a tattoo that Rocksteady is going to get

Ninja Turtles

Here are my concept designs for my Ninja Turtles Comic. These are creatures that you would hate to run into, not the cartoony versions that I loved as a child. Actually if I had to admit it I still love them. Anyway in my version, the Shredder has two criminal organizations. The one that is run by Crang which is a white collar, espionage, and world order type of crime. The other is the Purple Dragons, which was designed to keep the police distracted with robbery, assault, gang violence, and drugs. The Turtles start out by fighting the purple dragons but realize the much bigger picture. Shedder is tired of the Turtles so he puts a hit out on them. Bebop , a member of the PD's has a cousin who is in the IRA, Rocksteady. Rocksteady is contracted to eliminate the turtles, but fails. as punishment Bebop and Rocksteady are genetically altered. Baxter Stockman is the arrogant scientist who gets a little to cocky and transforms himself into a monster. That is as far as I have gotten on the story, but expect to see all your TMNT favorites.

Secret Society

While looking at my only dollar bill this afternoon, I made a startling discovery. The dollar bill has secret symbols on them. So I embarked on a Dan Brown style adventure to unravel the mysteries of our one dollar bill. Little did I know of the treachery that awaited me, had I known I wouldn't have wasted that last hour and a half. So back to the beginning I noticed a slight discoloration around the eye on top of the pyramid, so using my vast knowledge of science I found a hidden symbol surrounding the eye. It was the alpha and omega which are Greek, so I traveled to Greece where I discovered the same symbol on pillars thousands of years old. I placed my dollar bill over the one on the pillar and opened a secret passage. From there I found a sphinx who was going to eat my unless I solved the centuries old riddle "what kind of triangle has 4 sides" Easy. From there I found the lair of the secret society of the three headed snake (it was very ominous). They were supper mad I found them. I took off running for my life being followed by an angry mob, who was gaining, I really need to work on my cardio. Wait a sec. I don't want to give away the ending. You guys will just have to wait until my book comes out, hopefully next year.

Sloth no Evil

Monkeys, why is it always monkeys. Is it because they are the closest creatures to ourselves, so we always put them in the position of avoiding evil. I do not agree with this at all, monkeys are the root of all evil, in fact I am pretty sure they are the only animal other than humans to have broken all ten commandments. So I propose a new mascot for the see no evil hear no evil and speak no evil statues, Sloths. I know what you are thinking, sloth that is one of the seven deadly sins, but I think they got a bad rap for that. I mean they didn't name themselves did they? I think that sloths are one of the only creatures to not have sinned, I mean it is really hard to commit a sin while hanging upside down. Have you tried it? Really the whole time you are upside down you are thinking to yourself "I hope I don't fall on my head". So in conclusion sloths should be the avoiding evil representatives we look to for guidance.
