I didn’t realize when I was coming to this site that there would be explicit (gummy bear) ***. Perhaps you should warn people. Some of us surf at work, you know!

I hope you are joking. Any artful representation of the 7 deadly sins is certainly safe for work, no matter how explicit it is. I think the current post on your blog is an indication you jest

I love your interpretation of the 7 deadly sins. It’s so creative and beautifully photographed. Thanks for the smile at the beginning of my day.

This is really impressive work. I wonder if an animation of these 7 pics might work well.

Gummi Bears depicting the 7 Deadly Sins…
Elliott Back uses Gummi Bears to cleverly depict the 7 Deadly Sins. “Envy” shown here, and “Greed” are my favorites. Link (via Martin Klasch)……

‘released under license’?
these days on the internet people are somehow genius if they arrainge food on their plate, or look into a sky and see horses in clouds.
next time i draw ‘clean me’ in the dust on my car bumper i’ll photograph it and put it in my flicker stream to enlighten the art-hungry masses.
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo……….

Sloth needs to be a little less squished looking, I assume you didn’t intend for him to be in pain. : |
Very cute apart from that, I love envy. : )

I thought it was kind of cute, in the gummy bear style…I mean, some down-to-earth and what some people call “realistic” people might not like it, but I enjoyed it, because it was humorous.
The way the gummy bears were positioned very much represented the captions, and I think my favorite was probably pride and envy. They were so adorable (though envy might’ve looked evil to some people).

Cute! This made my day.

It would have been funnier if it had been real bears.

[…] I’m writing this post on a Mac. I have no idea what kind of Mac. It’s got a picture of an apple on the front. I think they all do. The reason I’m writing it on a Mac is because my son takes a Saturday art class at CCAD, where I also teach a History of Advertising course one night a week. Since I’m on faculty, I figured out that I can log in on the Macs that the students use in the computer lab right next to where Dan’s class is. It’s a 2.5 hour class. So rather than drive the half-hour downtown, find something useless to do for 1.5 hours, and then turn around and come back… I can log onto a Mac and find something useless to do online. Like this.

That was cute. I love gummy sin’s. lol
on November 5th, 2006 at 9:34 am
I like it a whole lot but aren’t greed and gluttony the same thing? Where is wrath?
on January 7th, 2007 at 2:57 pm
Sloth, greed is also known as avarice, and is not the same as gluttony. Wrath is referred to as anger in this representation.

what is a limited CC licence… does this licence allow for the use of these images in other medias (specifically ones that will be broadcast, like a different website, a blog, a book etc?)
