Custom Delights: Jeremiah Ketner's scrumptious Benny & Red

I honestly had never heard of Jeremiah Ketner before seeing this piece. Man, was I missing out on an amazing artist! These particular customs were created for a member of the Kidrobot boards, and right now I am really wishing that I was them. You rarely see a custom of Kathie Olivias's Benny & Red, as they are a relatively rare piece, so this is a nice contrast to the massive amount of dunny and munny customs floating around. This has to be one of the best customs I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot. It helps that all of my favorite colors were used--blue, pink and purple. These colors are definitely not used in tandem enough, and it is nice to see a piece use this color pallet so effectively. The painting is stunning, and has that creepy-cute vibe I am so fond of. The eyes are staring right through my soul!

I think my new goal in life is to get a commission done by Mr. Ketner. Anyone else blown away by this piece?
