Victor Coffee Cup

Okay, these happen to be the greatest coffee cups ever. They have good weight. They make coffee better. Could it be the thickness of the rim? Could it be the ahead-of-its-time ergonomic handle? Could it be that I need to put less emphasis on the container for my coffee? Actually, no, its not the last one. Either way, these are cool.
I usually sign my name "O" and add a "6" on top for the date. Sometimes I incorporate that into the theme of the painting ( in this one its a coffee stain). I didn't want anyone to think I had an epileptic seizure when I was signing it.
Oh, by the way, there are a lot of knock-offs out there. The only ones that have that magic quality are stamped "victor" on the bottom. See? A little valuable information is included in every show.

Big Apple No. 2

Sometimes I see things that are inedible that I just want to pick up and eat ( playdough would fit into this category). I think synesthesia ( where one sensory perception triggers a different one...I see playdough and it triggers smell , flavor, ect...) is interesting in that its employed without thought in a capitalist society ( mmm...see the bubbles in that cold, refreshing drink? ahhh...I'm so thirsty).
This size is very appealing to me ( 12" square). Its album cover size.

Mego Batman Head



Okay, this one has a little history. When I was like around 7 or 8 years old, I had this Batman Mego doll ( they were big in the early 70's ...really cool with fabric costumes, plastic boots, ect...). Anyway, the heads came off so I had a Batman with no head ( played with it anyway...).
Cut to 2004, I find one at a flea market ( a Batman head), and now I can't find the body. This is one of those items on my desk that I panic if I can't find it.
This is from my series of what I call "bookshelf" paintings because they have a 3-D quality due to the box-like construction.
