Oh, I also hate smiley emoticons and very large uncaged carnivores.

I'm gonna make the smilies Coop-ish. Hopefully you'll like them when they're done.

Coop (real name Chris Cooper) is a hot rod artist working from Los Angeles. He was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1968, and describes his occupation as "Insensitive Artiste". His work consists primarily of barely clothed Betty Page-style 50's soft pornography and/or B-movie monsters, with the female characters often taking the role of "Devil-Women". The image most often associated with his work is however slightly more tame; the face of a grinning devil with a smoking cigar clamped in its teeth. His work shows a distinct sense of humor which tends to soften the impact of the subject material, so that often a piece which could have been considered offensive actually becomes rather benign and light-hearted.
Coop has become popular with certain bands, and has provided the art for the posters of, among others, Green Day, Nirvana, Soundgarden and The Foo Fighters.
He released a book in 2001 called Devils Advocate: The Art of Coop and has recently formed a collaboration with Hot Wheels to sell a series of miniature "Coop-Customized" hot rods.
