W. Burroughs stencil and shotgun blast







Plywood, white primer, black spray paint & stencil, acrylic house paint, balloons, Mossberg 12 gauge shotgun (thanks to P.S.N. for use of the gun.)

I am giving these the label "action painting" for lack of a better word to describe them ("shotgun art"? ehhh. . . ) I'm sure Pollock and de Kooning and art history professors would take issue with my use of that phrase, but screw them-- they can bring it up with my friend Mossberg Twelvegauge.


(Stencil based on a photo by W. Coupon)

(Click image for a larger view.)

Another one to file under "WTF?" THIS is the benefit of looking to see if that camera in the thrift store still has film inside-- you never know what you'll find (though it's usually not something as weird as this.)

Feel free to add your own caption.

I use the top pair as my desktop background.

Collage



"The Texas Governor"

Dates from about 1996, title chosen later. This one was falling apart when I pulled it out. So it goes.
