10.09.2008 by Kyle Walters | 0 Comments | POST A COMMENT
Check out my snazzy new video. A presentation of all my daily paintings in order. Walk down my memory lane.
Welcome to my blog.
The latest, greatest Kyle initiative has been... well... initiated! KYLE ART RULES...MONDAYS DROOL! Mondays are a bore no more! Every week, I pledge to rock your monday mornings with a brand new kyleart piece of art. It could be a new painting, desktop wallpaper, tshirt designs, a video of me doing a jig.... who knows? As long as it could be loosely argued as visual art... that's what you're going to get.

Squirrel Monkeys rule. Basic I like any monkeys that have names of another animal combined with "monkey". Like spider monkeys, too. And if there were Panda Monkeys and Alligator Monkeys, I would love them as well.
This is my first rendition of a spider monkey... exploring the shapes and colors... officially adding him to my repertoire of chimps and other animals that look way too much like us.

the Final week! Monkeys!

Kyle's Daily Paintings FINAL WEEK.... MONKEYS!
When I was little, I was "Little Monkey". In high school, I carried around a toy monkey. The chicks dug him, and I dug the pun of them playing with my monkey. That aside, I have grown up. kinda. now I paint monkeys. I do this in hopes that it opens up the viewer, allowing them to confront ideas and emotions and humor through their imagination, opening them up this way allows the visual to reach a deeper level.
Enough artsy mumbo-jumbo. I like monkeys. Deal with it.
" Barrel O' "
14" x 11" x 1.5", oil on canvas, all sides are painted, signed on back
SOLD
Curiosity didn't just kill the cat. Curiosity also turned the monkeys into red plastic toys. Beware of the red barrel! (unless you are a big ape, in which case... feel free to chuck them at Mario).

Another Fashion Statement
"CAUGHT!"10" x 10" x 1.5", oil on canvas, all sides are painted, signed on back
SOLD
If there's one thing I learned in my bank robbin' days... it was that certain outfits, no matter how trendy, should be worn during the caper.
That's one thing I love about the superhero world and mythos... everything is so black and white, you know what needs to be done - no matter who you are.

Capes. Fashion and Function?

"Cape"8" x 10" x 1.5", oil on canvas, all sides are painted, signed on back
SOLD
Capes can give a superhero that extra touch of uber-hip-retro style, but why did they all wear one to begin with? Well, it helped early comic book artists to portray motion and dynamic. Well, and capes are just friggin' fun.
If only people in real life were socially acceptable when they wore them in public.
