Prehistoric-Charles Kaufman

"The prehistoric purple dinosaur was so upset that Shirley (from down the street) had created an organic Time Machine and brought him 185-million years into the future to modern New York city that he went on a rampage trashing mass transit buses and off-the-meter taxis; vowing to get revenge on the world by being the worst actor that ever played Godzilla on Broadway."

Original painting created with acrylic paints on canvas, then tweaked in Photoshop.

Burning - Kaufman

Even though his feet were burning from the hot ground, the Tiki continued to do the ritual dance honoring the birth of a new volcano on his tropical island in the south Pacific. Meanwhile, hidden away in the jungle, the rest of his tribe were singing the volcano song, "Hope-a-hope-a-hope-itdoesnot-getbigger".

Created with acrylic paints on canvas, then manipulated a bit in Photoshop.
