Custom-Showcase: Stone Golem by Kevin Gosselin for Milk Munny Exhibition
CLICK THRU to have a closer look at the awesome custom-Munny created by Kevin Gosselin for "Milk Munny" ~ a group customs show whereby all proceeds for the event will go to Keep a Breast Foundation. The event is being held at the Monorchid Gallery in Phoenix, Arizona on October 1st, 2010. This mega munny is named "STONE GOLEM" and will be selling for US$750. Magnificent work, I insist.

Kevin-blogged: "Ever hear of the golem? No, not Smeagol from the LOTR but the creature from hebrew folklore. Legend has it that this humanoid man of earth could be controlled by inscribing the word emet (אמת "truth" in hebrew) on it's forehead. This creature could not think for itself so instructions were placed in the golem's mouth.
My incarnation of this fable shows a young child summoning a stone golem to do her bidding. You can see the shock on the child face as folklore becomes reality. The beast is ancient and iron supports have been added here and there to keep it from falling apart. Miracles are being conjured on this cold autumn evening."
