GIVEAWAY: Win a The Thing shirt featuring the art of Chris Kuchta

You can read SOC's interview with Chris Kuchta HERE.

If you go to horror conventions, then you know that the dealers rooms are full of visual artists of all types offering their unique takes on the horrific and macabre. Painters, photographers, digital artists, and everything else you can think of competing for your attention. As I was perusing the dealers room at Days of the Dead, I saw quite a few horror artists, may of them very good. One man’s work caught my eye and made my black horror loving heart skip a beat though. That man was Chris Kuchta. I was absolutely blown away by his art. The colors, the texture, and the feeling contained in his renditions of horror icons and scenes rivals any I’ve ever seen. These pieces belong on museum and gallery walls. Chris truly is talented. Better yet, he’s a hardcore horror fan. I chatted with him for quite a while, and I can’t remember exactly what we talked about, but we did get deep enough into horror geek territory that my friends shook their heads, gave up, and walked away. That’s when I knew he was a kindred spirit. He was cool enough to answer some questions, and I’ll be posting that interview tomorrow (actually, it's right HERE), but for now lets talk about something else he was cool enough to give me.

I told him about Son of Celluloid, and he was more than happy to let me share some of his horror goodness with you, my Cellmates. What I have for you is a killer t-shirt(size extra large) featuring a great piece based on John Carpenter’s classic The Thing. Not only do I think it's cool, not only do you think it's cool, but it carries the Carpenter seal of approval, as the legendary director told him that he particularly enjoyed the way Kuchta captured Kurt Russell’s likeness. See, there he is with the man himself. Check this bad boy out…

Yeah, that picture sucks, so here’s that close up of the artwork again…
