aliens invade Baggelboy's skine!!






More collage from me again. I've really been into the idea of rehashing things, in a good way though. Reusing, recycling, remixing - using discarded and neglected elements and bringing new life to 'em. I had a stack of neglected Artist Trading Cards (also known simply as ATCs) and a drawing I made several years ago that had always bothered me - too busy or not so well composed - I don't know. They all decided to get reborn here in Baggelboy's book. With all the pseudo and not so pseudo religious imagery in his book, it seems kind of appropriate, so here's my take. What they are is anybody's guess. "Alien's" is just an easy referral. They're there though, and they seem far happier than they were in their previous lives.

WOW! These are really fun! That first one looks like a snake monster. I love the colors, their intensities, and the textures.

t, several of these look a lot like snakes to me! :-D (Is that a Rorschach thing, or are the aliens snakelike?)
