Artist's Comments

This black velvet painting was inspired by the video game Berzerk…here are the evilest robots in the history of all arcade robot villains.

The red happyface? That guy is the evilest of all. His name is Evil Otto and he was nominated #1 out of the “10 Most Terrifying Enemies of All Time” by cracked.com. It’s too morbid to write here, but if you are curious, read the cracked article.

How is the green robot evil? Well, he was referenced no less than TWICE in Futurama. (The voice was sampled in the Episode “Fear of a Bot Planet” and he appeared rendered in 2d in “Anthology of Interest II.” That makes him evil somehow. Yes, evil.

This painting was brought to you by the phrase: “Chicken, fight like a robot!”

The painting was done with blacklight-reactant paints. See how it looks in blacklight!

Frame: Acrylic on wood.
Painting itself: Acrylic paint on black velvet.

Photography is the art of capturing art.
If you want to make art, jump over to photomanipulation. :noes:

I think those were the exact sounds used in the "Fear of a Bot Planet" episode of Futurama. ;)

Anynya, thanks for drifting by and taking a look at the painting. I'm very proud of how the frame came out on this one ;)

I took your advice in photographing the paintings. I think they look much better now.

Thanks again!
