If one reviews the variances of Iggy Pop's life from trailer park to punk godfathering to addictions to mental institutions and back again, one is endlessly intrigued by his rise and return and rise again from his personal swamps of existence.
He also makes a darn good swamp creature, visually...
Ok now there's some creepy awesomeness. Such great eyes! And great (icky) hair. And a seriously slimey place. Is that a noose settled loosely about him?
And another thing ... I am presenting an award to you for your inspiring work. Details here http://mardispeth.blogspot.com/2012/03/lin-gave-me-this-award.html
yes, he is quite tenacious and he certainly does make a good swamp creature ;)

ReplyDeleteThank you Cindy.
Delete--and no, not a noose, those are just lazy vines dragging across the scene... ~swamp signifiers.
Ok, but it could be a noose, which would be very symbolic of... something. ;)

Fabulous charicature! And I definitely see the correlation between him and "swamp"!
ReplyDeleteOddly, your swamp is a very fresh feeling ick. Maybe its the white Iggy's white, Delightfully creepy.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Iggy looks great, but I'm really drawn to the background too. Congrats on your award :)
ReplyDeleteThis is great. Sorry it took me so long to comment. Your Iggy seems very content with is swamp-like existence.
