This is so fantastic it’s unbelievable!! How much would I kill for that Elvis pencil?? Every single piece that this guy does is incredible. I can’t believe he doesn’t sell them and just give them away to friends. I wish I was his friend!
I can’t even imagine how long it takes him to wash his hands. I have a feeling that the lead has permanently stained his skin and then God knows what else it’s done. This could truly be a case of dying for one’s art. BUT WHAT GREAT ART!
(The AWMOK Jungle Animal Petting Zoo is a scenic attraction whose cages are currently being filled to coincide with the release of the upcoming Pomplamoose with Allee Willis “Jungle Animal” VideoSong and online music game and contest. Jungle tamer, AWMOK creator, curator and charming hostess, Allee Willis, me, will be steadily leading jungle animals to their cages over the next 1-2 months or so as you bring them here until the song is released. If ever there ever was a category that was primed to be kitschified it’s that of “Jungle Animal” as all the stripes, spots and fur have been inspiration for designers since the beginning of time. I thank you all in advance for placing your jungle pets in such an illustrious cage as The Allee Willis Museum of Kitsch. Keep them coming!)

Wow– this is truly folk art at its best. The linked chains (in the article) is mind-boggling. I also love the whole alphabet.
