Oompa Loompas are Evil

What can I say? They disfigure and possibly kill children. Then celebrate their actions with a jaunty tune. NO!! They're sick! And the topic of today's Phobia-stration. Oompa Loompas. The disgusting little orange child killers in Roald Dalh's "Charlie and The Chocolate Factory" who inhabit the drug induced HR nightmare known as "Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory". They freaked me out as a kid. Not because they were played by little people, it was the orange skin and the revel they displayed when a child is hurt or put in serious danger. I usually like Roald Dahl, in fact, I use to read his books as a child and, true, Oompa Loompas aren't anything new when it came to threatening children...but these little guys were the scariest and creepiest.

Galvantula

I know I said I'd do a Phobia piece on Oompa Loompas...But I really had an itch to do another Pokemon inspired painting. This is of the same game as the "Reuniclus" piece. This one is called "Galvantula" an electric spider. I also wanted to get at least one more piece done before I went back to work on my next deadline.

FEED ME, SEYMOUR!!!

I was stuck deciding what to paint next and my friend Marissa IM'd me and suggested "Mutant Spring Flowers". The mutant part stuck in me and then I let that rattle around in the old cabasa and I found the "Little Shop of Horrors" plant in my mind. This thing scared the living crap out of me when I was a kid and it gave me a small complex about plants. I thought it was a great subject.

THANKS MARISSA!

Next phobia subject: Oompa Loompas.
