Lack of Updates

Unfortunately for the past month I’ve been pretty swamped at work so I haven’t had much time to do anything creative.  I did remember that I did a small Mario-based painting sometime last year.  Nothing fancy, but definitely geeky!

You’ve hit a new form of art with this one.
Cyber minimalist cubism.
It also delivers a powerful reminder about our repressed capitalist greed. (We didn’t really have to hit all those coin bricks in the game…..and yet we did.)

Awesome job! I think your plan of a 3-piece set is totally worth doing.

Nice work!!

Back at my old job, I printed one of these off colored it, and pinned it on my cubicle wall. Fast forward a few weeks, and the block was joined by a pixelated Mario, coins, Goomba, mushroom, cloud, brick, pipe, and Koopa Troopa. Unfortunately, few at that boring company knew what it was :(

“You know, Mario! Super Mario Brothers? Nintendo?”
“Nin ten doe? Sorry ed, I don’t know”

I was inspired by this, btw: http://www.bladediary.com/questionblocks/

I don’t know how anyone can not know who Mario is. It boggles my mind!

That’s a pretty cool site. I’d be afraid of authorities overreacting and thinking the boxes are bombs though, hahaha.
