Derek Chatwood’s atheisty art
We’ve recently been introduced to Derek Chatwood, having accidentally appropriated his artwork for a Topic Agnostic story on creationism. That’s how authentic his vintage-style comic book artwork is; it appears to be an honest-to-god hilariously Jesus-loving kid’s colouring book.
Turns out you can buy high quality prints of some of this artwork online; we’re fond of Jesus! vs Darwin! and Beginner’s Bible Coloring Book, the aforementioned pilfered image.
It’s been pilfered into the big time of street art as well – check out what looks like a back alley wheatpaste in Bellingham, WA, of the iconic ‘Jesus Riding a Dinosaur’ image. In the vein of Shep Fairey, this image stands on its own even without the context from which it came, but the impossible creationist juxtaposition communicates & provokes more thought than a baleful Andre.
