PONY BOY!

"Pony Boy" 2006

For about the last year or so I have been collecting produce boxes that come in and out of the hotel I work at part-time. At first I intended to draw funny little pictures on them and mail them to friends and galleries. I drew on some of them but never really had the ambition or guts to send 'em out.

My favorite one is the above series titled "Pony Boy". There are some interesting things going on in this produce box (by produce box I obviously mean really awesome art!). I have a few other pieces in the works that are also related to found or commercial products. See Pony Boy on my bedroom wall here. Laura loves that!

I also found a site which sells vintage produce label art. Here is Pony Boy, live and in color.
