Minions at Work: A Photocomic

This is from one of the very last original Minions at Work photo-shoots. My wife was neck-deep in serious health problems (fortunately all behind us) and I was being full-time caretaker. I managed to stumble into the corner of my office the serves as Minions photo studio, and picked up some recently acquired props, all bathroom fixtures. While rummaging around looking for ideas, I spotted the tentacles, cut from a toy octopus, which I’d done for an earlier Minions project. I stuck them in the toilet, and this just came together. The lighting is pretty out there. I was making extensive use of those colored “party” light bulbs at the time, and it shows. The composition isn’t the best either. It’s stupid, but I still think it’s funny.
