Merry Caroler

Merry Christmas to all!

From one of my Merry Carolers. They're made from plastic creamer bottles.

May you all have a happy holiday.

Pop Corn, Tacos and History

On this historic day honoring the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus whose collaboration with Queen Isabela of Spain, without whose funding his discoveries would not have been possible, I give you Pop Corn, Tacos and History.

Ageless Doll

Sometimes you may close your eyes and picture a favorite scenario in your life. You may see the you you'd like to be in that scene.
This ageless doll I penciled in here, is living such an ageless scene.

La Bamba may not say much, but we hear him loud and clear. His music rings of talent and a strong commitment to it.
His expression filled face is always on the ready when Conan calls.
"La Bamba" and "Conan Greets a Guest" are available for viewing at Conan O'Brien's Museum of Conan Art on Conan's web-site. I may enter more in the future, if I happen to find another band member or Andy his side kick maybe, on a food package.

Conan Greeting A Guest

Lately I've been piecing features together, rather than relying solely on finding features on one piece. This has opened the possibilities. Here Conan O'Brien strides across the stage. This work can be seen at teamcoco.com in the Museum of Conan Art.

Gina

Chili pepper lips, juicy fruity skin and hair. Fashion and a naturally sexy pose. - Gina! I found her on a juice carton with lips on a chocolate bar package.

NY Reminisce

I was just thinking about the old days.

My musical interests have carried me through my life. Self imposed and here exposed. Although I have yet to "make it" I still make music every chance I get.

Trans Swam Blam

Motorcycle pieces take many shapes, what with Transwheeler and now this duckling appearing before me in another mail order ad.
He seems to be either celebrating or letting off some steam. I wonder which it is?

Passed Over

Transwheeler

Transwheeler came to me in the mail as a motorcycle ad. As a kid I got to ride with my big brother's friend and nearly learned to drive one myself. Lessons were cut short when the cycle was sold.
Transwheeler took shape from cycle photo pieces.

A very colorful style of dress was popular among some newly arrived Puerto Ricans in NYC in the forties and fifties. It was called "Tuvi Time"

Mr. Salty Kraka

This spry little 'cat' I found on a box of saltines, struttin' his stuff across the box, just as jauntily and confident as you get!

Night Garden

This lovely lady is so proud of her healthy night garden with grapes, broccoli, fish and crackers.
I found her on a box of crackers and the garden on a box of fish. Set on a background of styrofoam packaging, originally containing liver, I think they make an attractive addition to my collection. What do you think?

Memories of living in NYC in the sixties are conjured up by this little lady I discovered on the box of fish and broccoli we bought at the supermarket.

Ventrilobots: By the people, for the people.
