KOSHi Presents... Will Work For Food : A Coloring Book For Grown Ups

"WiLL WORK FOR FOOD : A Coloring Book For Grown Ups" makes an AWESOME gift!

Blow off some steam, escape into your own little world, or just pass the time in a fun, sexy way with this whimsical, slightly twisted coloring book for grown ups.

"WiLL WORK FOR FOOD : A Coloring Book For Grown Ups", contains KOSHi's latest set of ink & paper illustrations paired with witty rhymes about what it is to be female in today's sex & celeb-obsessed culture and is left colorless for you to customize with your own unique touch. So, bust out the crayons and get to work enhancing the beauty that is:

- A silly yet proud display of women & boobies to love in all shapes and sizes
- Psychedelic escape fantasies including dark portraits of Alice in Wonderland and Tinkerbell
- Fashion models & illustrations, complete with rude and snarky commentary
- Paris Hilton with a precariously placed coin slot in "The Best Things In Life Are Free"
- A portrayal of Pete Doherty tempting Kate Moss with a nasty spoon from the great beyond  

(Parental Advisory: Contains Some Nudity & Strong Language) 
8.5 X 11 B & W Interior /Color exterior

I USED TO BE A LITTLE GiRL (poetry sample)

I tried to hide
My sex, my smile
Tried to walk
In single file
Tried to hurry
Tried to push
Tried to bury
Tried to shshsh
I tried to cut me
Down to size
Tried to see things
Thru your eyes...
But I got bored.

KOSHi illustration - Way Way Back In 2004

I was more and less ambitious when I started KOSHi with a xerox zine back in Fall 2003 and then moved to an online format the following Spring. I was more ambitious for wanting to put out my every doodle and idea faster than I could execute them with anything resembling finesse, and I was less ambitious in that I wasn't really considering that these thoughts and images might stick with me for a life time or longer and that I might want to try rendering them with a little more patience and care just in case. Eventually, that did occur to me, and a balance was struck to where now I can honestly say that I may be moving at a more measured pace, but my work today blows what I was doing back then out of the water. And looking back is much less embarrassing than I though it would be.

SG Fan Art

I'm a member of an SG group called Fan Art & let me tell you- I am not the only artist inspired by the lovely ladies over at Suicide Girls, and there is some really great work happening over there. Here are a couple of my favorite artists from the group...

SAFFi - KOSHi Print

I know I probably have too many collections going at once, but that's how I roll! The latest is based on the uniquely pretty ladies over at Suicide Girls, and, being brand new, this set is still nameless. It's sure to wind up as another coloring book for grown ups, so perhaps you'd like to help me come up with a clever title? Someone mentioned "Hot Pink", but... well, that may be a lil too suggestive, even for me. Kicking things off, here's Saffi...

KOSHi Prints are available for $18 a pop at
KOSHi SHOP.

SYBiL

I posted this new illustration, SYBiL, in the shop late last night. This is one that I actually finished months ago for STiTCHES, a series I'll be working on this year & next. Don't know what I'm gonna do with it when it's done. I'll probably look for a little east side gallery show to join & sell off the originals then. In the meantime, the reproduction prints'll be available at KOSHi SHOP for eighteen bucks a pop.

HOOKA BiRD

There's a new lady in the house... Skye aka "HOOKA BiRD" just joined the other lovelies at KOSHi SHOP and soon will be living between the pages of my next book, PRETTY BAD : A Coloring Book For Grown Ups. I say, "soon", but who knows how long it'll take me to finish. I always underestimate the time I'll need. Guess that makes me an optimist?
