After posting about the incredible Laurie Lipton, I’d like to pay tribute to another artist in the same Corpro Nason show.

Jimmy Pickering’s work makes me smile. Big, giddy, goofy grins.

I want to hug his sweet little monsters and depictions of “evil.”

From his website bio:

i guess if my style had a recipe it would read “a dash of pirates of the caribbean, a smidgen of the haunted mansion, a pinch of its a small world, combined with equal parts funny face drink mix, freakies cereal and crazy foam. then add even amounts of dr. seuss, edward gorey, puff-n-stuff, star wars and everyone of those television stop motion animated x-mas specials and bake.”

I think that sums it up nicely.

View the new Corpro Nason Halloween exhibit.
And check out the galleries on his regular site.
He also has a collection of children’s books.
