A piece of guerilla art resembling the Loch Ness Monster has been stirring controversy in Eau Claire, Wisconsin after it appeared in the city's Chippewa River last week. While the public have been largely indifferent to the Nessie tribute, government officials have called for the sculpture to be removed due to safety concerns. The ultimate fate of the faux-Nessie remains to be determined as local businesses and the city's recreation department hope to acquire the artwork and the anonymous creator of the sculpture has promised to remove the piece soon. More on the story at the Duluth News Tribune.

Digital Art: Chupacabra

Sat, 05 May 2012 19:55:43 -0800

I am the cheese maker at a small goat dairy in Arizona. We hear lots of stories about the Chupacabra (legends of the Mexican "goat sucker" demon). Our milking machine is even playfully called "The Chupacabra." This is an illustration of a dream … "It was a moonless night when I heard the screams. I investigated carrying only my flashlight. I should have brought my gun." Painted on CS5 with Wacom tablet.
