The Return of Big Tex Art Show

ReturnofBigTexThe Return of Big Tex” by Chet Phillips

Last year Big Tex, the iconic statue and official greeter to the annual State Fair of Texas, was destroyed in a fire. The new version was recently unveiled and there will be an art show to celebrate his return. The Return of Big Tex art show opens next week, October 7th at the Atrium gallery with visual interpretations from 26 creatives. The show is organized by fellow illustrator Ray-Mel Cornelius who will also be exhibiting. My entry (above) is a parody of cowboy movie posters of years gone by, with a special tip of the cowboy hat to Gene Autry.

Heisenberg, Bueller and Ralphie

breakingbad-blog

A series overflowing with incredible writing and acting,”Breaking Bad” dropped its viewers into a beaker of highly volatile creativity.  Vince Gilligan presented us with a unique cast of characters and plot lines that can be shocking one moment and slyly clever the next. It’s sad to see it end. This is my small way of paying tribute to one of the very best TV dramas and the most infamous chemistry teacher on the planet.

This image, as well as the following two are available for sale as signed 11 x 14 prints. Visit the ChetArt shop to learn more.

Ferris-blog

“Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” represents a signature piece from the 80s and one of John Hughes’ finest creations. Chock full of clever writing and a great message about seizing the day, it also serves as a love letter/postcard to the great city of Chicago. My tribute embraces Mr. Hughes’ genius and I wish he was still with us, creating more gems like this.

ChristmasStory-blog

In 1983 Bob Clark transformed the incredible words of Jean Shepherd into the holiday classic “A Christmas Story.” The end result brought forth a flood of memorable and hilarious quotes that I’ve paid tribute to from this warm story of childhood dreams and nostalgia.

All three of these tributes are available as signed 11 x 14 prints.
