A few weeks ago I met up with Elbow-Toe at his Brooklyn studio. It was awesome to get to hang out, chat, see where he works and what he's up to. Elbow-Toe's work continues to amaze me with every new piece I see. If you are in Brooklyn this weekend, he's part of the Annual Gowanus Artist Studio Tour so be sure to stop by. But if you are like a good majority of us who do not live in Brooklyn you can enjoy this virtual tour. Also, if you haven't already, be sure to check out a q&a Elbow-Toe did last year, definitely one of my very favorite q&a's I've done.
Below is the above linocut live and out on the street. Elbow-Toe wrote me this about it: "There was an old woman who lived in a shoe, But she got an adjustable rate mortgage and her house got foreclosed." Brilliant.
See all those cut up magazines and catalogs? All the cut up bits make up Elbow-Toe's INSANE collages, like the one below:
