[Random Cool] Thrift Store Paintings Get Monster Upgrades!
Bloody’s Adam Dodd sent me over to Twisted Sifter, a site who caught wind of the coolest art series I’ve seen all year.
Asks the site, “Have you ever been to a thrift store (think Goodwill or Salvation Army) and noticed that they usually carry a small selection of landscape paintings? Artists Chris McMahon and Thryza Segal decided to inject a little fun into these discarded works and give them a second life by adding monsters to the scenic landscapes.
The trick is to match the paint originally used (e.g., acrylic or oil) and try to blend the monsters into the original scene as if they were always there. It can be a challenge if the original is too textured or old but the results (below) speak for themselves.”
Check out some of the insanely cool works of art below, some of which are available for purchase.. Which is your favorite? I’d hang these in my basement (if I had one).
Avengers: Doomsday and Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai actor Simu Liu is joining Allison Williams (M3GAN) and Michelle Randolph (Scream 7) on the sci-fi survival thriller Homewrecker, Deadline reports today.
Production is set to begin next month in Paris, France.
In Homewrecker, “During a heart-breaking domestic revelation, three star-crossed Americans are suddenly forced to work together to survive a terrifying unexplained global event that threatens to destroy life as they know it.”
Xavier Gens (Under Paris, Frontier(s)) will direct from a script by Elisa Bell (Vegas Vacation) and Travis Gordon, which has been likened in spirit to 10 Cloverfield Lane.
Producers include Denise Di Novi, Margaret French Isaac, & Oliver Scherick for Di Novo Pictures (Practical Magic) and John Zois & Warren Goz for Parallel 42 Entertainment.
Williams will executive produce alongside Michael Rothstein & Samuel Hall for North.Five.Six, which is launching sales at next week’s Cannes film market. CAA Media Finance and UTA Independent Film Group co-rep domestic rights.
