New WW news from Vinnie!!!!

Postby Rat Fink Dennis » Tue May 19, 2009 12:28 am

After a very long trip around the world, I am finally back home in
Gainesville,Florida. From Union Lane in Melbourne, to the back alleys
of Tokyo, to literally everywhere in Sao Paulo, Brazil I took loads of
quality pictures of art on the walls. The world is filled with talented
artists but you already knew that right?
I've taken the precise walks on ledges, down tunnels, up to roofs to
get a close up of some of the work going up in cities everywhere, its
equal parts awe inspiring and art inspiring to me, seeing pieces 8
stories high and so detailed just makes me want to do more in what I do
in my creative life. I'm lucky enough to travel around playing music,
from dive bars in the middle of a south american jungle to massive
festivals in Europe, I get a taste of what's happening time and time
again in most corners of the world. It truly makes me want to move
forward every idea I have, no matter how half baked.

I've been spending a lot of my days working with my vinyl record
company PAPER AND PLASTICK, combining collectible pieces with local to
international bands, and modern artist printing massive prints on high
quality papers. I have a few releases coming out that are not only
visually stunning but musically moving, if you haven't stopped by, you
really should.

While I was gone I dropped the FIRE AND ICE OCTOPUS set via my
WUNDERLAND WAR site. I am super proud of my series 3, and in retrospect
of the last variations out in the world, I loved every piece in the
series. The EIGHT HANDS FOR BAD HABITS OCTOPUS though - I have the most
love for, just a massive chunk of vinyl that celebrates my bad habits,
I mean admitting your vices is the first step to losing them. Right?
You can take a look a series 3 and pick up some new toys or fill in the
gaps of your collections.

Wunderlandwar.com

On the subject of WUNDERLAND WAR, I have been brewing a series 4 for
awhile now, been trying to conceptualize blending my favorite
characters with new looks and feels, now that I am back in the lab I am
going to fill the walls with ideas and stare at them and file the
choices down abit, I still want to do series 2 of the SYMPTOMS as well
but I've toyed with different (much bigger) sizes and I think I will be
atleast reprising the SYMPTOMS in the future, I love the idea still and
the characters.

The childrens book I wrote SOMETIMES ROBOTS LIKE BEING ROBOTS, got the
illustration treatment from my great friend Erik and is officially
done, I will be launching a presale soon with a limited hand numbered
print and signed by yours truly. Good friends THIS IS MY SUITCASE even
took one of the 13 stories in the book and put music to it, and it just
rounds off the feeling of accomplishment from doing this book.

I was never a fan of myspace, I don't have a facebook but I really am
enjoying twitter, it provides the brief information that my busy
schedule can digest. If you are already a believer follow me.
