WALRUS TV: UPPER PLAYGROUND X JUXTAPOZ MAGAZINE U.S. TOUR - VIDEO RECAP


www.youtube.com/user/WalrusTV

Info posted by Upper Playground:

In 2008, Juxtapoz Magazine and Upper Playground asked David Choe, Alex Pardee, Saber & Retna to paint their way across the United States. Traveling the country from Washington D.C. to the Bay Area with spray cans in their hands and cameras following, they bombed, brushed, and painted, leaving a swath of color and creativity in their wake. This short documentary piece, set to the music of Cutsoquick, captures the artists as they hit the streets collaborating on huge pieces and connecting with fans and admirers of their art from all walks of life. Watch the film on Walrus TV.

WALRUS RIDER by ALEX PARDEE


WALRUS RIDER by Alex Pardee
Estimated Release: Mid April
Edition of 500

Info posted by Alex Pardee:

Coming soooooon from Upper PLayground and The Loyal Subjects. (Note: a bunch of other promo pics of the toy have been leaked through various websites, but this is a new never before seen drawing that I did for the toy;) Hope you like…

Oh, and If you are wondering if this little-guy-riding-this-bigger-guy-in-a-vengeful-way-rather-than-a-homosexual-way has a little back story to him, you are in luck. because he DOES! and here it is:

The girls all loved his limbs and knees,
For no one else had legs like these,
But jealousy arose with some,
Cause’ HE was having all the fun!
So late one night upon his slumber,
Darkness drenched with rain and thunder.
There he slept and dreamt of blondes,
But when he woke HIS LEGS WERE GONE!
Who would do this tragic thing?
What good is a bee if a bee cannot sting?
And what good is HE without legs at all?
Now he cannot move and he’s not that tall!
So he hopped on the back of his bestest friend,
And together they ride as he seeks his REVENGE!
