Scottish artist Peter Howson’s portrait of pop star Madonna and with husband Guy Ritchie is being sold by a private collector.

The piece isn’t very flattering and Madge and Guy were said to be livid when it was unveiled in 2007.

The artwork is set to fetch $35,000 when it goes under the hammer at McTear’s auction house in Glasgow on Saturday, May 30.

Lindsay Lohan Stars in “Name That ‘Toon”

Spicy — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 15:45:21 +0000

Los Angeles artist Ben Tegel says he is a little obsessed with Lindsay Lohan and that’s why he chose her as a subject for his latest work.

Tegel created posters of Lohan and various other celebs that will be presented in an exhibit, ‘Name That ‘Toon, that opens at Hollywood’s World of Wonder Storefront Gallery March 27th.

Los Angeles-based artist Ben Tegel created his latest Lohan-inspired work as a poster promoting Girl on Girl night at the Viper Room. The piece portrays the classic, American Gothic, with Lindsay and girlfriend Samantha Ronson as the Ma & Pa. “Lindsay and Sam are the all-American couple for the 21st century,” Tegel said. “I call it American Sapphic.”

Of his art, Tegel says,

“I seem to have some sort of fixation with her. She, along with Britney, I suppose, embodied the fin-de-siecle celebrity archetype. Her child-star-turned-drug-addict-turned-lesbian narrative seems to sum up the way fame operates in the 21st Century. I’m really interested to see what happens in the next chapter of her character’s storyline.”

Other Tegel creations include ‘Rehabville’ featuring Pete Doherty, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and of course, Amy Winehouse. The piece was created for Flaunt magazine.

The most daring poster was also created for the Viper Room and again stars Lohan. But this time the actress is portrayed as skin and bones in an alley smoking a crack pipe. Watch the video to see it!

Chicken Scratch Sketches – Barack Obama

Spicy — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 00:53:23 +0000

Thank you to Lindsey who responded to my post about suggestions for my next subject.

Kinda random, but, to go with the theme of the nation – how about one of the Presidential or Vice Presidential nominees?

Or Jamie Lynne in honor of her newest edition?

Or Lohan’s girlfriend (if you’re going for scary)?

One of the Presidential candidates was just perfect! I might even have to do a Sarah Palin. But I am totally LOVING the idea of doing a Samantha Ronson as well!

Have an idea for a chicken scratch sketch? Let me know!

Big, Bronzed, Bodacious Oprah

Spicy — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 20:41:30 +0000

Controversial sculptor and artist Daniel Edwards’ latest creation is the ‘The Oprah Sarcophagus’, a bronze sculpture made in the likeness of Queen Oprah herself.

The full figured Oprah is depicted as voluptuous and strong, although some think the statue is in poor taste due to it being ‘unflattering’. (Unflattering? Bitch would love to have those titties!) Others say it doesn’t look anything like her. Who knows what they are talking about because I think the statue is dead-on! Have you ever seen Oprah without makeup? It’s totally her.

Edwards is the same sculptor who created the Britney ass-baby sculpture as well as the dead Paris Hilton spread eagle piece. Genius!
