Fan Art Fridays: Madea
Boo 2! A Madea Halloween is out in theaters today, for those of you who’d rather leave the cinema laughing instead of fearing nightmares this Halloween. I really did not expect Tyler Perry to create a second Halloween-themed Madea film. Not that I didn’t like the first one, but this doesn’t seem to be a…

Gallery Mondays: Stephen Andrade’s “Erotic Zombie Friend Fiction”
I’ve been saving this one for Halloween. Last month, I visited the Bob’s Burgers exhibit at Spoke Art NYC. It was too cool.

Fan Art Fridays: Red Queen from ‘Alice in Wonderland’
Halloweekend is here! In honor of the festivities this weekend I’ve made this week’s Fan Art Fridays Halloween themed. In Hollywood, I’d assume that makeup artists get paid a lot of money to transform actors playing characters like Johnny Depp’s Benjamin Barker/Sweeney Todd and Effie from The Hunger Games. Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen in…

Gallery Mondays: Jasmine Worth’s “Wounded”
With Halloween coming up this weekend, I just had to revisit a piece of art I found while perusing Last Rites Gallery in Midtown a few months ago. This piece is called “Wounded” is by California-based artist Jasmine Worth. Several things about this piece remind me of the day we all play dress up and…
