William Burton Binnie

THE ASSASSINATION OF LEE HARVEY OSWALD, 2008, OIL ON CANVAS, 38x60 INCHES PRIVATE COLLECTION, LOS ANGELES
William Burton Binnie is a Dallas-based artist. A lot of his work involves creepy stuff, which is not usually my flavor. But I found his take on Lee Harvey Oswald (and the hats involved) to be really creative. And the piece below makes me think of a Western movie on Halloween-steroids. Both of these pieces would take up your entire wall. I'd like to see them in person. Check out more of his work here.

Awesome work. I love that last one. If I didn't have a house full of children, I'd hang a print (of course) in my house.
