I do believe there is such a thing as good art and bad art. But I also believe there should be a museum of toy packaging and marketing art so I can stand in front of this Masters of the Universe poster by Earl Norem and talk about its composition like it's The School of Athens

Completed: 3 black velvet paintings created for the 2026 fine art show at the Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Florida from February 26 to March 8th. Come and see them in person if you can! flstrawberryfestival.com Medium: acrylic paints on black velvet. Inspiration in alt text.

My take on part of Kool-Aid Man's Kingdom, Strawberry Falls - taking inspiration from how it looked in the 1987 comic Toys-R-Us map and the 1986 commercial for 'Strawberry Falls Punch" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0VfgBpN-2g).
