I got to meet “Weird Al” Yankovic last night and present him with a copy o my “Meeting Al” piece! Go here to read all about it and see more photos from the night! http://otisframpton.typepad.com/otisframpton/2012/05/meeting-al.html

This is a personal piece featuring 13 characters from Weird Al Yankovic albums and Al himself. I’ll be seeing Al perform live in Minneapolis on May 3rd. It will be my fifth time seeing him live and I can’t wait!

UPDATE: Many thanks to Al himself for tweeting about my piece! I hope all of you Al fans who visit my site via his Twitter feed enjoy my work.
People on Twitter and Facebook have been asking who each character is…well, some are “official” Al characters that are named in songs or appear in “UHF” and some are my own interpretations of certain songs or album titles. The only non-Al characters are the bouncer and the two ladies hanging onto Al. But all in all, there are 13 characters from each of Al’s 13 albums. They go from left to right, oldest to newest album, ending with Al himself re-enacting the attitude of “This Is The Life”, the theme song to “Johnny Dangerously”.

This is a digital commission featuring an old Jedi, two dead Jedi, a wannabe Jedi and a droid. True, this image may make little sense when it comes to canon. But, well…that’s Star Wars for you.

This is a digital commission featuring three guys from a TV I’d never heard of before taking on the commission. Such is the life of a freelancer …
