52 Monsters

This is pretty awesome. Fans of Luc Latulippe may recall that he started a project a year or two ago called 52 Monsters in which subscribers to his newsletter would get a new monster illustration every week. Luc unfortunately got sidetracked (shhh… he’s sensitive about it) and never finished all 52, but he’s announced on his site (which since we last mentioned him, has turned into a blog) that he will finish all 52 illustrations or die trying. The new monsters (including some from the original project) are available on his Flickr page.

    I’m SOOO tired of the sleek hipsters at lounge style.
    Good to see Luc taking a break from it even if temporary.

    [...] A man named Luc once imagined a project where 52 monsters would be illustrated, thats awesome. I love monsters, when they are drawn. [...]

    PRIEST : Were you also the one who painted the statues?

    MAUDE (brightly): Oh, yes. How did you like that?

    PRIEST: Well, I didn’t.

    MAUDE: Oh, don’t be too discouraged. For aesthetic appreciation – always a little time.

    Wow, thanks for the plug Johnny! Hey waitaminit.. was this your sneaky way of guilting me into finishing the monsters this time?? LOL! And thanks everyone for the kind words! It’s been a rough couple of weeks, and this made my day. :)

    Except you Alfred. You mad me cry! Kidding. Actually, to clarify for anyone curious: the “lounge style” you accuse this “sleek hipster” of (FYI: I am neither sleek, nor am I hip… nor do I have sleek hips) is what my clients ask me to produce more often than anything else, thus those illos make up a large part of my portfolio. But it pays my bills and allows me to work as an illustrator full-time, for which I’m grateful and very fortunate. We should all be so lucky in this field; it’s hard to make a go of it as any type of commercial artist. And it’s never easy to find the time and energy needed to pursue any personal projects outside of working hours.

    Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go coif my hair, slip into some Versace, pour myself a martini, put on some Bebel Gilberto, and go stand around looking cool and bored. And sleek. :P
