The Banana Eaters<\/p>\n

My latest and greatest (some may say odd) art project, and I need models.<\/p>\n

Looking for locals for this one.<\/p>\n

\"Banana<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

(click the pics)<\/p>\n

Here is what I need…<\/p>\n

YOU – dressed in something funny\/sexy\/goofy\/odd\/playful – whatever.
\nThink of playing dress-up. Props are an added bonus. Express yourself. I am considering each painting a collaboration work. Your personal expression is important here.<\/p>\n

I would love to take pictures of people I have never worked with before for this one.
\n(All you who I have worked with I am pleased to have you too)<\/p>\n

I will take just a dozen or so reference photos of you to create my fun Banana Eaters<\/em> painting.
\nDon’t expect it to be much like the photo… I often just reference and go bananas with my style. It will not be totally realistic.
\nPhotos will be from the waste up. I don’t care what kind of pants-skirt-shorts-etc, you have on. Don’t worry about color clashing or stains, or any of that. I am painting, the photo will never be seen… so that stain on the front of your 1920’s retro blouse ain’t gonna ever be seen.<\/p>\n

The only rules as to posing is that you will be ‘about<\/em>‘ to eat the banana and I am looking for eye contact with the camera.<\/p>\n

I got this idea from watching someone eating a banana in a coffee shop who was staring at me. I asked them “Don’t you know the rule about never making eye contact with someone while eating a banana?”
\nA fun conversation ensued.<\/p>\n

So… if you’d like to be part of this project and be a work of art shown to millions (o.k. – \u00a0maybe just a fifty to a hundred thousand or so) give me a jingle.<\/p>\n

What do you get?<\/strong>
\nNot much except the novelty of being involved in the project itself.
\nYou will however also receive a nice little matted print of the painting you are in.<\/p>\n

It will take just minutes to take the few photos necessary, but I do need advance notice. If you know my hangouts and such… anyplace is cool, otherwise I will be taking these fast pics at Electric Beach during my hours there. Bring your own banana!<\/p>\n

If you have never modeled for me before, please don’t fill out the modeling form just for this project. It isn’t needed.<\/p>\n
