A robot bar, well that's a nice work with colours and design. Love the lights.

I love the 10w cans at the bar. Great take on Nighthawks.

Impressive... the slight blurring definately works here. Linking to the original make this one even better since those of us who wouldn't have made the connection (I thought it looked familiar, but couldn't place it) get a better idea of the parity.

I think there is a real painting like this, with James Dean... I like yours, too. I tihnk I saw the origioanl on the outside of an abandon building in Downtown Milwaukee.

Oh, what a wonderful illustration blog you have. You had me laughing outloud with your TATTOO image. Mostly because my son in law is a tattoo artist and my daughter draws the flash for him.
Your Robot painting came with the added benefit of a visit to the Art Institute of Chicago, your spotted zebra is devine and even moreso with his little pink tongue lapping up the water. Monsters who operate? Genius.

Thanks for visiting my site, otherwise with all the people that are now on Illustration Friday, I might never have visited here.
