SACRIFICE! My SNOWMAN is willing to MELT himself down to let his love, the MERMAID, live within his body of WATER .#sacrifice #snowman #mermaid #happyidiot @k11artfoundation #shanghai #china #k11artfoundation #garybaseman #baseman How far would you sacrifice yourself for LOVE?

SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE! When my Lil Creature’s ruled TASCHEN BEVERLY HILLS. @taschen #toby #happyidiot #dumbluck #circuspunks #dunces #taschen #garybaseman #baseman About 15 years ago, when we introduced my cover to Taschen’s Illustration Now! If you look closely at my creatures, you’ll notice a running theme, they are all FOOLS FOR LOVE. Willing to melt themself’s down, cut off a limb. They would rather sacrifice themselves than live in this world without truly feeling alive. ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CC_Z7l6nNV5/?igshid=yn8iqiq1m0m4

True Sacrifice! 💙 Remembering this sweet lil animated sequence titled THE BURST created for AE PDX by Jamal Qutub based on my painting the Happy Idiot. Enjoy! @nimpsy @nimpsystudio #happyidiot #snowman #garybaseman #baseman Here the Snowman is willing to melt himself down to allow his love, the mermaid, to live in his body of water. 💙💦⛄️🧜‍♀️💧 https://www.instagram.com/p/B_p6eI-HO2Z/?igshid=go92m8uvwza8

Already DAY DREAMING on this MONDAY MORNING. Well, this painting is titled Wet Dream from my NYC exhibition HAPPY IDIOT. #daydream #wetdream #melting #happyidiot #longing #garybaseman #baseman Always longing. Always melting. The Creatures hovering over are INFINITY GIRLS, who’s arms & legs are wrapped to create the infinity sign. They keep just out of reach as you long and desire over them...and melt. HAPPY MONDAY! Sigh. https://www.instagram.com/p/By0T4EWHn5T/?igshid=dm4zaq9bvdiq

My most romantic character is the HAPPY IDIOT. 💙 Thinking about things a day before Valentine’s Day. #happyidiot #snowman #mermaid #sacrifice #loss #love #garybaseman #baseman The Snowman sacrifices himself by melting himself down to let his love, the Mermaid live within his body of water. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt15WhNHUpu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mgd55dki5zp7
