From The Toy Box Art Show- Ltd. Art Gallery

HotWheels_ChetPhillips

Ltd. Art Gallery in Seattle presents “From the Toy Box” art show. Artists were asked to represent cherished toys from their past as the theme. I chose both the iconic Rat Fink character created by Ed “Big Daddy” Roth (as a child, I carried a plastic Rat Fink toy as a totem everywhere I went) and Hot Wheels cars. I loved every aspect of Hot Wheels cars, from the tricked out designs, bright shiny colors, springy wheel suspension and the challenge of engineering layouts with the orange track pieces. The show opens November 13th at Ltd. Art Gallery’s new location. Visit the event’s official Facebook page for more info.

Ltd. Gallery in Seattle will be presenting their “Mint Condition Issue #3” art show with a reception on Friday March 28th. The theme is all things comic book related with a tip of the cape to Emerald City Comicon just down the street from the gallery. My contributions are a Napoleon Dynamite/Batman mashup and a selection of famous superheroes as chimps. After the reception all the unsold pieces will be available in the Ltd. Gallery online store.

Mint Condition 2 Art Show- ChetArt Entry

The Detective

“The Detective” was created for Ltd. Gallery’s “Mint Condition 2” show which opens March 1st and is presented in conjunction with Emerald City Comic Con. For this comic book themed art show I created a still life incorporating Batman’s 1940’s Batmobile… in kiddie ride form. Closer inspection reveals several references to some of Batman’s famous foes. This piece will be available for sale at the gallery as a 1/1 16″ x 20 framed Giclee and as an edition of signed and matted 11″ x 14″ prints (20.) If you can’t make it to the gallery the edition will be made available for sale through the gallery’s web site.

“The Detective” by Chet Phillips– “Fighting crime with a roll of dimes.”
