Dan, can you do one of Obama in a Vault 101 suit, all Fallout 3-style? It's a lighter blue with a yellow trim.

This is an excellent suggestion.

Plus, i'd be willing to bet money that goons would quickly buy it off you.

I'd like to do more gaming oriented paintings. I have a pancake painting in progress of the fat zombies from House Of The Dead 3.

Oh, man. Dan, if you make the Obama in the Vault 101 suit, please make a wallpaper sized version. I will slap that on my desktop so fast it'll make your head spin.

I'm working on it...

Sketch for a painting I'd like to start.

Where's our Obama Vault Dweller?

There Are Some things You Can't Unsee [Mark Hemingway]

As if an entire blog dedicated to "an exploration of the graphics and graffiti in support of Barack Obama" wasn't unnecessary enough, the latest entry is a painting of a nude Obama riding a unicorn done by an artist who "who normally paints photos of people with pancakes on their heads." I'm sure the Committee for the Preservation of the White House will have a tough time deciding whether that will match the decor better in the Lincoln Sitting Room or the Treaty Room...

Impressive Mother T.
I had a half an hour explaining my Chase no Face painting on our mantle to my girl's parents over the holidays.
More game oriented stuff would sell like pancakes. Wherezat Fallobama?

Working on it...

Man, you're serious on the fallobama one!

lol one of my friends just linked the Obama-bear-unicorn pic on Facebook

Gawker's all about Dan Lacey right now. I think our little secret fave rave is going into Animal Collective territory pretty quick.

Meanwhile, at Somethingawful, they are saying, ILX who?

Decided to redo the first Fallout Obama painting; this is the acrylic underpainting of the newer version-almost finished.

I love the cute little birdies in the engines looking out dolefully.

As goons suggested, be careful to dole out the obama action in limited amounts, lest you swamp the market and run out of ideas too quickly

$610 x 365 = $222,650

Running out of ideas has never been a problem; just deciding which ones to develop. People are enthusiastic about the Obama unicorns, and I don't mind painting them, so I'll just continue until I get bored.

Love the nice, big hi-res pix. Really helps get across the feel: paint handling, texture, etc. Armband is a nice touch. Does it have special properties, or is it just an armband? Plus horse coat is genius! All the Obama nudes are excellent, but I especially love the planecrash one from a couple days back. Geese in the engines, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Rushmore, ghost of windshield strut showing thru may be an error but it totally saves the composition. Looks freaking GREAT. Plus topical and so damn fast!

You should do at least one super-detailed Unicorn mounted Obama nude as a project piece, to commemorate of otherwise observe the moment. History will be glad you did.

omg the hudson river one, omg omg omg

I KNOW! Plus I like how his butt is all pink and perky.

holee shit

Although in the standing 'corn one Obama looks more like Jack Webb.

I love yr paintings, Dan, but in truth, I love yr comics more.

I'd rather draw Faithmouse than paint. Maybe good things will happen for the cartoon as a result of all the publicity for the paintings.

Also, I agree-Obama's face looks a little too Jack Webby, so I'm giving him a repainting.

Dan, are you going to keep faithmouse as a more-or-less single panel thing, or do you want to expand out to a full strip or even a full/mini comic?

If nothing else, I would submit some of your pop star/celeb caricature drawing work to Mad & Cracked, see what they say.

I submitted both the celeb toons and Faithmouse to Mad during the past few years. Cracked folded as a magazine, but I sent them cartoons online anyway. The way I see it, if I can get a fair price for the paintings it should buy time to draw more cartoons.

I'm still drawing both single panel toons and also trying to commit myself time-wise to the adult side of the feature-
