Description IN PROGRESS. Once this is finished I\'ll put up the final product. For now here it is. Acrylic paint + collage.

Based off the song entitled Space Monkey by Placebo.

Space monkey in the place to be
Riding in a rocket to a planet of sound
shooting the moon, playing dominoes in drag
An increase in population of a hundred percent

Space monkey in the place to be
with a chemical peel and a picture of Mary
out on a limb in the carnival of me
raising the temperature one hundred degrees

we're sewn together
she's born to mesmer
beside, astride her
I die inside her


space monkey in the place to be
a mass of contradictions in a golden frame
raising the roof in a calamity way
completely meretricious of a poke in the eye

space monkey in the place to be
talk of the town with a Columbian rock
out on a limb in the carnival of me
raising the temperature 100 degrees

we're sewn together
she's born to mesmer
beside, astride her
I die inside her
it's far too sacred
don't ever fake it
and don't and don't and don't let me down


like you let me down before
like you let me down before

space monkey in the place to be
with some free-association and a hole in her head
out on a limb in the carnival of me
raising the temperature 100 degrees


we're sewn together
she's born to mesmer
beside, astride her
I die inside her
it's far too sacred
don't ever fake it
and don't and don't and don't let me down


like you let me down before
like you let me down before
like you let me down before
like you let me down before

I rarely like collages, but I'm DEFINITELY taken with this. Love the Pollockian drips of paint, too.

Oh thank you! That's such a wonderful comment to wake up to. I have fun with textures and color, collages have become my favorite thing to do. I have tweaked this one and so I hope this weekend to have the final stage posted soon, so keep an eye out. ^_^

This is the mad awesomeness! Love the sopng too, I knew there had to be someone protraying the "sewn together" imagery from the song. ^_^ Nice going, can't wait to see this finished, great job!

Oh thank you! Sorry for the late reply. It's one of my favorite Placebo songs---so when I heard it----it struck my artist's heart. I had to do something with it. I hope to finish it soon! I will post when I am. So keep a look out. Glad I was one portraying that "sewn together" imagery---they made a hell of visual song in that one. Thanks again.

Thank you. I need to get back to it. I haven't painted on it in a week or so. *Punches self* I promised myself I'd finish it, so I need to do so. Been spending all my time on my sketchbook renderings.

It's so interesting! I especially love how you composed the colors and details to look messy and abstract in a very orderly way. Wonderful piece

Thank you. I love doing abstract/collage images. I like the way shapes bend and coordinate with one another. It's fascinating. I will finish this!! Hahah. Thanks again, glad you liked.

It's looking pretty good so far. It's surreal, and I really like the variety of colors used.

Yeah, I just need to finish it. Get in more detail. I'm starting to eliminate more than with past collages, so I like the direction this one is taking. More shapely, more subdued colors.

Very interesting...it intrigues me.

Intriguing is good yeah? I like creating things that still withhold some beauty even if at first glance it makes someone go "uhhh what?" There is beauty in everything.

hehe...yeah, intriguing is definitely good. It sets me thinking what the picture might mean. It's got a different meaning for each person. I just love to see things from different angles. And yes, there is beauty in everything.
