Appelhans Across America

Jay Stephens | August 8th, 2006

Good ol’ Chris Appelhans is getting (well-deserved) props for his work on Monster House all over the web, and golly geez are his paintings nifty! His very fun Frog Hat Studios site is full of ‘em if you’d like to see more. But you know what? He’s also an accomplished cartoonist with an absolutely delightful little strip called Frank and Frank, which I highly recommend. He’s from Idaho, btw. You know… like potatoes.

    I also dug the 'Alice in Underworld' concept art from the frog hat studios website.
  • Though I have not had the pleasure of tasting any of his delicious pies, I have to add my vote that Chris is greatly talented (let's not forget his music!)
    His art is always a great source of inspiration.
  • Seconded. His cooking and bakery skills are second to none.
  • Whatta dude, whatta guy! He can paint, AND bake a pie.
  • Appelhans rocks! The fellow paints like no other!
  • What a treat this was. Some of the most beautiful (and creepy) concept sketches -- reminds me so much of the excellent Psychonauts art.
  • Chris is super awesome.
  • Awsome paintings. Took my son to Monster House this weekend, now I see why it was so visually impressive.
