Westside Wookie


Fuzz for life wookie/Can't you read the signs?

Like Casey Weldon, who once promised to never paint another Star Wars piece, I often think I won't post another Star Wars image. And like Casey, I couldn't resist 2Pacca.

Princess Leia, Coppertone Girl


I was digging through my saved files and came across this gem that I always meant to post, Princess Leia in a old-school Coppertone ad, but with a decidedly more adult geek flare. (Copper-Tatooine by Casey Weldon, prints here)

Team Twilight Zone


Team Edward or Team Jacob? Those supernatural looks have been seriously toned down after pop artist Casey Weldon gave them the Eye of the Beholder look for Gallery 1988's recent Twilight Zone show. I must have missed it the first time around, but they are for sale again for the holidays. The creepy, creepy holidays.

Haircut For The Wolfman


A lycanthrope's a hairy beast, so who better to try out a new style? Pop artist Casey Weldon gives the Wolfman enough new hairdos to last three years of full moons. The afro suits him best — very '70s. Click through for full-size versions of each cut. (Link via pacalin)

What If Bill Murray Played Everyone In Wes Anderson's Films?


It would probably look a lot like Casey Weldon's paintings for the upcoming ‘Bad Dads’ art tribute to the films of Wes Anderson. And I would watch the hell out of those movies. To be honest I can't even tell the difference with the Gwyneth Paltrow portrait.

Clockwise from the top left: Max Fischer (Rushmore); Chas Tenenbaum (The Royal Tenenbaums); Anne-Marie Sakowitz (The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou); Margot Helen Tenenbaum (The Royal Tenenbaums); Francis (The Darjeeling Limited); Richie Tenenbaum (The Royal Tenenbaums). Go to Casey's blog for larger versions of each painting.

Death Of A Comic Strip


Newspapers are filled with comic strips that have long past their prime and should be immediately put of their misery. Several artists had the same thought at WWA gallery's show, Off the Strip.

Garfield as a hat? Seems like something Mr. Burns would appreciate, especially with some Odie boots and a Nermal boutonniere. (Blue Monday by Casey Weldon)



Dennis has never really been much of a menace, but once he beheaded his frenemy Margaret the strip took on a whole new meaning. (Dennis the Menace to Society by Damian King)



Woodstock was always kind of annoying, but he wouldn't make much of a meal. To paraphrase, eating Woodstock would only arouse my appetite without bedding it down. (Unfriended by Scott Stulen)



And here I figured Hagar would die of cirrhosis of the liver or be stabbed in the back by "Lucky" Eddie. (Hagar's Horrible End by Keith Noordzy)
