SIZE: 11.5" x 16.75"
EDITION SIZE: 100
ARTIST: Juan Ortiz
SKU: CC1226
ABOUT THE IMAGE: Looney Tunes Emergency, rendered by Juan Ortiz, shows what many of us have wondered about the damage inflicted on Looney Tunes characters – namely, if it hurts and do they ever go to the hospital. Ortiz’s rendition is even funnier when one sees exactly who and what kind of damage is inflicted on the characters as Ortiz incorporates Wile E. Coyote, Daffy Duck and Yosemite Sam with injuries they are most likely to fall victim of in a classic Looney Tunes short.
ABOUT THE MEDIUM: As a hand-painted cel, Looney Tunes Emergency was first silk-screened onto acetate, then painted on the reverse in the classic animation style. The background for Looney Tunes Emergency was painted by Hector Martinez, and reproduced using the fine art Giclée process.

ABOUT:
Tom Everhart is a celebrated American painter whose work uniquely bridges the worlds of fine art and popular culture through his exclusive use of Charles Schulz’s Peanuts characters. Initially trained at Yale School of Art and later mentored by Schulz himself, Everhart transitioned from traditional illustration and architectural rendering to a bold, expressive painting style after a life-altering battle with cancer in the late 1980s.
"The "Posing" series did grow out of the previous "Hide and Seek" series that focused on the questions of one's attempt to hide their intellectual honesty in order to seek out a newly designed image... a "Poser" tsunami of posturing between who was being real, and who was obviously pretending to be real, often with the intent to deceive, could no longer be ignored." - Tom Everhart
