| "The Many Faces of Patrick Stewart" Away Mission: Orlando Gig Poster Tom Whalen - 18" x 24" - Limited to 125 $50 - Signed (by Tom Whalen) and Numbered $195 - Signed (by Tom Whalen & Patrick Stewart) and Numbered |
This awesome Tom Whalen created poster featuring "The Many Faces of Patrick Stewart" is currently available through the Vulcan Events storefront and comes in a non-Patrick Stewart signed version for $50 and, that's right, a Patrick Stewart signed edition for $195. If, like me, you're a fan of Patrick Stewart / Captain Picard / Captain Ahab / Professor Xavier / any of the other characters he's played, then this is a no-brainer. To see more of Whalen's work, visit strongstuff.net and follow him @strongstufftom. Make it so, Number One.

| "The Moment Before" Art Print Anthony Cozzi 18" x 24" - Signed and Numbered $40 - Limited to 30 |
Anthony Cozzi's beautiful "The Moment Before" screen print makes me think of the movie Bambi, or more specifically, Bambi's mother, and that makes me a bit sad. Nostalgic anguish aside, Cozzi's print is gorgeous in an eerie nature documentary-meets-art house cinema kind of way, and I'm positive it'll look incredible in person. The extremely limited emerald colored 18" x 24" print is currently available through the Street Anatomy storefront for $40. To learn more about Anthony Cozzi be sure to visit snowblinded.com and follow him on Twitter @Snowblinded303.

I learned about Cigarette Burns Cinema from a reader not too long and was really impressed with what I found. Not only do they screen obscure cult classics in London, they've also got a really great shop that features some fantastic film-inspired limited edition shirts. All of the shirts were designed by artist Mark Mitchell and are limited to runs of 30 (i.e., tiny runs). Check out the shop, buy a shirt, visit the blog, and follow them on Twitter!

| "Dead Beatles" Art Print Brent Cheshire 18" x 24" - Signed and Numbered $40 - Limited to 100 |
 |
| "Reservoir Dogs / Star Trek Mash Up" Art Print Brent Cheshire 18" x 24" - Signed and Numbered $30 - Limited to 100 Inspired By: Reservoir Dogs and Star Trek |
These prints probably shouldn't entertain me as much as they do, but I just can't resist the inherent ridiculousness they both exude so proudly. Out of the two posters above, I probably prefer the crass "Dead Beatles" over the mash-up, though they're both great. Quick tangent - is it just me or does George Harrison kind of look like Tarman from The Return of the Living Dead? Both of these prints are currently available through Brent Cheshire's Etsy storefront for some pretty affordable prices. The "Dead Beatles" print costs $40 and the Reservoir Dogs / Star Trek print costs $30.

| "Fear & Loathing" Art Print Disturbia Clothing 16" x 23" - Open Edition £15 (approximately $24) Inspired By: Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas |
 |
| "Fallout" Art Print Drew Millward 18" x 23" - Numbered £15 (approximately $24) |
I'm fairly certain these two prints are by different artists (I couldn't find any information about who did the first one), but since they were both commissioned by and designed for Disturbia Clothing I decided to group them together. I tend to lean toward the film / book inspired artworks, hence the inclusion of the Fear and Loathing inspired poster, but I'm head over heels for Millward's insane "Fallout" screen print. Both of these prints are currently available through the Disturbia Clothing store. To learn more Drew Millward you can visit his website, his store and / or follow him on Twitter @DrewMillward. You can also follow Disturbia Clothing @disturbiatees and check out their website at disturbia.co.uk.

| Aliens Movie Poster Samuel Ho (AKA No Small Victories) Multiple sizes - Open Edition Priced depending on size |
It's impossible not to absolutely love this print. I'm sorry, but it's true. Samuel Ho's amazing Aliens poster was originally part of the "Sci Fi Lullabies" art show, which I couldn't find a lick of information on. That's rather beside the point though, because this print is currently available through Samuel's Society6 store! To learn more about the Samuel Ho, visit his website at nosmallvictories.com and follow him on Twitter @samuelho.

| They Live Movie Poster Matt Needle 420mm x 297mm (around 16.54" x 11.69") - Open Edition £25 (approximately $40) |
I really dig Matt Needle's They Live print. I love the grinning skull (though I guess all skulls are technically grinning) and I think his use of red really makes of image jump off the page. I'm probably alone in thinking this, but doesn't this design look like it would make for a killer Captain America: The First Avenger poster? Needle's They Live movie poster is currently available through the Needle Design storefront for £25 (around $40). For more of Matt Needle artwork, head over to mattneedle.co.uk and follow Matt @needledesign.

Both of these prints were released during the recent Zombie Art Show co-curated by Phone Booth Gallery and Jason Liwag of e•phem•er•al. The above prints are my favorite of the bunch, but there's a lot of great stuff that still happens to be available through the Zombie Art Show storefront. I believe this is going to be an annual thing, but I'm not 100% sure. For more info on design studio Doe-Eyed, head over to doe-eyed.com, and to learn more about Jason Liwag, visit jasonliwag.com.

| "Brandt, The Big Lebowski & Bunny" Art Print Joshua Budich 18" x 24" - Numbered $35 - Limited to 50 Inspired By: The Big Lebowski |
Joshua Budich has already released some amazing Big Lebowski themed triptychs, and with "Brandt, The Big Lebowski & Bunny" I think he's officially depicted all of the main players. If you already own Joshua's "Dude, Donny & Maude" and "The Stranger, The Jesus & Walter" posters, then I'm almost certain you have to buy this incredible print by law. "Brandt, The Big Lebowski & Bunny" is currently available through Budich's storefront through joshuabudich.com. There's only a few of these left, so I'd recommend buying now. In addition to visiting his website, you can follow Mr. Budich on Twitter @jbudich.

| "Lotus War Pyramid" Art Print James Jean 26" x 30" - Signed and Numbered $40 - Limited to 555 |
A lot of James Jean's artwork is what I imagine the world would look like if I had just taken a copious amount of hallucinogens, read a little bit of Hunter S. Thompson, and then turned on the Discovery Channel - and that's why I love his stuff. James recently released another example of his otherworldly artwork in the form of the "Lotus War Pyramid" print. James' print is currently available through jamesjean.com and costs $40, which isn't bad for a 26" x 30" print.

| "Stop Lion" Art Print Alex Pardee 17" x 22" - Signed and Numbered $50 - Limited to 100 |
What can I say? Alex Pardee's Treeple prints are just bizarre and fantastic. He's created this crazy world that's at once horrifying, beautiful and kind of hilarious. These are all available right now through Pardee's ZeroFriends storefront. All of the prints cost $50 and measure 17" x 22". To learn more about Alex Pardee, head over to eyesuckink.com and follow him @alexpardee. Do it!
And that completes November's "Art Appreciation." Did I miss anything?
I got one of the Cheshire 76 Star Wars retro prints a while back. I must have gotten a steal, because I know I didn't pay $120 for it. I believe I learned of him from here: frenchsampleroom.com
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post, I have a couple more artists to follow!
