Robots and Donuts

Eric Joyner has made a name for himself over the past few years with his signature Robot and Donuts series of paintings.

In his works, he depicts retro robots exploring and participating in a variety of activities… but somewhere in the painting donuts are incorporated. So, why Robots and Donuts? In his interview with Electix, Eric says:

“Upon deciding to become a gallery artist, I had to make some rules, or guidelines. They were as follows: 1 – I will only paint things I like, 2 – The subject(s) had to be something that I could paint for 30 years, and 3 – That people like it. Donuts & robots together make no sense. I find this interesting.”

LOSING ALTITUDE KICKSTARTEEEER! 

Just about 600$ away from the half way funding mark!

These samples are so pretty!! Losing Altitude is a small project set to produce an art book and a deck of cards of threatened bird species. The art book (available in soft and hard cover) will feature a quick blurb of information about each depicted bird that will include conservation efforts being made for them.

I don’t believe kickstarter allows direct charity projects? But many artists in the project are choosing to donate the proceeds of their work to a bird focused charity (the charity is not chosen yet, I guess we’re crossing that hurdle when funding actually happens.)

My bird of choice will be the Ivory Gull. Rough drawing of that is in the works, hopefully soon, before the kickstarter is over I can post that.

The funding goal is 5,500!

So please go look at the kickstarter.

Please reblog in addition to or in place of donating if you’re unable to donate? Spreading the word would be so helpful!
