Selected Creeps and Creatures From A Surreal Mind…

Square

Stumbled across the work of Travis Louie today. So good. One look and I was hooked.

All kinds of influences seem to be mashed up in Louie’s surreal work–from moody shadowy film noir…straight on over to shocking circus side show…perhaps taking a tiny bumpy detour through some futuristic and frightening atomic-age sci fi…and then coming to a distinct stop in lovely Victorian lacy steam-punky darkness–and they all come together in a brilliantly black and other-wordly explosion of just plain good.

It’s hard to choose a favorite, but I think from this selection it’s Miss Bunny by a hare (get it hare..did you see what I did there? ha). How about you? Are you fan? Which is your favorite?

I honestly don’t have a free spot on my walls…nor should I spend more money on art when I still have so much to frame and put up…  but I couldn’t help salivating over the Travis Louie posters here at Circus Poster.
