Master of the Macabre


My friend Kerry Flaherty, an incredibly talented plush artist, is a resident artist the Chicago Art Department http://www.chicagoartdepartment.org/ and she hosted a show called "Night of the Living Artist" We were having lunch one day and she said, "Let's turn our favorite artist into a Zombie." To which I replied, " Yes, lets." And so she made a whole production out of it and had artist from around the nation contribute pieces for the show. This is my rendition of Edgar Allen Poe as a resurrected raven zombie. I used Tempera paint on floorboards and it's about 3ft tall. Killer.
