Personal Hell - The Creep on Exhibit: 10/1/09-10/15/09
Current mood:

Category: Art and Photography

Who is…The Creep?
Spawned from the depths of the Inland Empire, in between two beautifully
toxic bodies of water (Lake Elsinore and the Salton Sea), The Creep grew up a
cartoon & horror movie junkie and all-around fan of the stranger things in life…and his work reflects that. With no art schooling beyond a high school career, he decided to go
the “lone wolf” outsider artist route. So here he is today, a vigilante lowbrow artist on
a mission from God or Satan. I can’t remember. If you like the Munsters,
rock & roll, rat rods, 50s & 60s camp and just generally F’d up things, then enjoy.

With this exhibit, we’ve invited The Creep back to celebrate our mutual
admiration for the weird world and work of Mr. Jack T. Chick, a man
so ingrained in our pop culture you probably don’t even realize it…yet.
Get off your couches and dig…

FREE ADMISSION

Have you ever been out in public and been approached by
a smiling person who, without saying a word, hands you
a little booklet with a cartoon on the cover? As they slink off
you open it up to see that what they have given you is filled
with religious and moral stories illustrated with cartoons.
Your first reaction is "Why me? Do I look like I need saving?
Do I emanate evil?" But once you get past the fact that
this person singled you out as being in league with the Devil
himself, you realize these booklets are great!

My "Personal Hell" show is inspired by these tracts and
their holier than thou creator, Jack T. Chick. Influenced
by Chick's artistic and evangelistic approach, I have attempted
to combine his cute, seemingly innocuous illustrative style
with my own beliefs concerning a contradictory world
of smiling faces and hidden evil. Come sin with me.
