This is what happens when an artist/graphic designer becomes obsessed with everything chiles and reinvents them into famous artworks and movie posters … you get Chiles Meet The Masters and Chiles Meet The Movies series. This week Mr.D’s chile art is out of this world — Chiles Meet The Movies, Chile! with Serrano Weaver and Tom Scoville.
Monday Chile Art has been running on the SWD Facebook page for almost a year now. Check in every Monday for more here at Southwest Discovered.
If you have suggestions for future Chiles Meet The Movies, leave them in the comments below. We’d love to hear them!

The craft: First I look for a poster where I think a chile would fit the motif, and it amuses me. Using Photoshop CS6 on an iMac, I begin masking over the original poster. If the end result makes Amy laugh, that tells me my chile work is done! –Mr.D

These are SO GOOD! Every Monday I look forward to these. Nice work Mr.D!
Benji, thank you. It’s one of the funnest features I work on and hardly seems like work at all.
These crack me up. Can’t wait to see the next one.
Starlifter, stay tuned … many more movie chiles to come with each Monday Chile Art.
Mr.D these are hilarious! Drew says you should make a book or a calendar. So funny!
Shannon & Drew, thanks! I’m having far too much fun with these. -Mr.D
