I thankfully had my camera on me and snapped the above pic. I rushed back to the place I'm staying at and tossed the picture into photoshop and started painting away:
The lights turned to eyes and soon bodies took form. I used the smudge tool to swirl and

Pretty soon the photograph turned into a bunch of silly demons in their cave.This was really fun to make, especially looking at the original photograph to the final result.
Now instead of hating stoplights, I laugh and enjoy them because deepdown they are really just a bunch of silly demons.

But seriously, this is sheer brilliance, I followed the link from your deviation and had no idea it started as a photo. You should put this in your dA journal too.

That is a cool idea; I wish I were that clever.
At last!!! i'm not the only one who sees the stoplight demons!!!

Cube! Dude... this is my fav!

I still want to meet up and discuss your work and what other direction's you might want to take it.
