| Weird
fuzzy spider thing
You know, like
those rubber ones you get in science museum gift shops that you
huck at the wall and they stick.
Nupper, is
this what you were thinking? I cannot claim to understand you; no
sir. |
The happy head and, also, the logo of the
former tiny dog precursor site, Hall of Heads This
head is happy and haunting. I have always been disturbed by this
head. This picture was drawn many years ago in the dark and sordid
past of the Nupper. It is a favorite of mine. |
Sad Woman This
drawing is very weird. Nupper in case you were not aware, the hair
of this woman is not a color that hair usually is.
We must think
long and seriously about why Nupper would choose to burden our psyches
with this wrong colored hair. |
Coffee
cups and blobby people
This monotone
frescoey impressionist frieze on tile suggests the coffee cup era
of Nupper art. There was a time some of you may remember when the
bulk of what Nupper drew was coffee cups and lumpy heads. Hauntingly,
there are notebooks full of these drawings in the bottoms of boxes
and drawers in an apartment in Chicago as you read this.
What will become
of them? |
Arizona
This painting
depicts bunnies and snakes and cactus. We can only assume that this
is the way in which the landscape of Arizona unfolds in the mind
of the artist. Perhaps also in his mind there is a giant neon ARIZONA
sign hanging in the sky as well but as I recall there was no such
sign and you had to know you were in Arizona by looking at streets
or a map. |
Super
weird crocodile playing bendy guitar
This picture
is only colored halfway. Some cup of coffee may
have called to the Nup midway through this sketch, leaving us
to wonder just where in the devil this one was going.
I myself can't
be sure. Nupper surely has forgotten. |
