Awesome and Available

| "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" Art Print Michael De Pippo 18" x 24" (Screen Print) - Signed and Numbered $40 - Limited to 100 Inspired By: Fantastic Mr. Fox |
I love Michael De Pippo's "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" print! It's simple, it's playful, it's intelligent, and it's still available for purchase! There's no doubt in my mind that Wes Anderson would approve of De Pippo's interpretation, as this artwork evokes the same carefree attitude that the film exudes while also paying its respects to Roald Dahl's brilliant source material. This poster is a winner in every respect. Michael's "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" is available through the Spoke Art store for $40. The print measures 18" x 24" and is limited to an edition of 100. Head over to michaeldepippo.com and follow @mdepippo on Twitter for all De Pippo related news. I'm not going to lie, I love this guy's last name. It's fun to write, fun to say, fun to read. De Pippo. That is all. De Pippo.

| "The Old Chickchaw Harvest Migration Trail" Art Print Jessica Deahl 18" x 24" (Screen Print) - Signed and Numbered $50 - Limited to 75 Inspired By: Moonrise Kingdom |
A Moonrise Kingdom poster! Huzzah! Jessica Deahl's print captures the meticulously staged and stylized greatness that is an Anderson film. There's a lot to love about this artwork, but I think what really sealed the deal for me was Jessica's choice of color. The paper, the inks, the landscape - all of these elements, when taken as a whole, conjure up a place only Wes' characters could thrive in. Deahl's "The Old Chickchaw Harvest Migration Trail" screen print is now available through Spoke Art's website for $50. The poster measures 18" x 24" and is limited to 75. To learn more about the artist, be sure to visit jessicadeahl.com.

| "The Life Aquatic" Art Print Randy Ortiz 18" x 24" (Giclée) - Signed and Numbered $40 - Limited to 100 Inspired By: The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou |
Alongside New Flesh's insanely beautiful "The Jaguar Shark," Randy Ortiz's "The Life Aquatic" may be my favorite print from this year's show (which isn't much of a shock when you realize that Randy's Fantastic Mr. Fox inspired print from last year's "Bad Dads" made it onto my "Top 20 Posters of 2011" list). The guy has the ability to merge the insanely detailed with the beautifully simple, consistently creating jaw-dropping compositions. I'm not really sure how this print hasn't already sold out, but it looks like Ortiz's "The Life Aquatic" is still available for purchase for $40. The giclée measures 18" x 24" and is limited to an edition 100. If you like what you see, check out damnthedesign.com and follow @damnthedesign on Twitter.

I'm thinking James Gilleard is going to catch fire in a pretty big way soon. He's got a playful style that's easy on the eyes and has already put together several fantastic prints in addition to all of his commercial work. Need more proof? Take a look at his Life Aquatic and Royal Tenebaums inspired posters above. 'Nuff said. Both of the above prints are still for sale for $40 each through Spoke Art. Both giclées measure 18" x 24" and are limited to an edition of 100. For more info on the artist, visit jamesgilleard.com and follow @jgilleard.
Everyone loves The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic, and Moonrise Kingdom, but it's Anderson's first feature, Bottle Rocket, that doesn't always get the respect it deserves. Enter Ridge's "Ain't No Trip to Cleveland" poster. There's a simplicity to this print's design, which is fitting considering Bottle's characters are a bit less complicated than the ones Wes' future films would house. And I haven't even started on the color, which is incredibly inspired and clever given the poster's explosive theme. Ridge on her design choice (taken from the artist's blog):
Sold Out But Definitely Worth Mentioning
The guys at New Flesh are on a roll. Is the Life Aquatic inspired "The Jaguar Shark" their best print yet? I'm not sure, but I'm leaning toward very possibly. Head on over to newfleshprints.com and follow @newfleshprints and @nenewflesh for all New Flesh related news.
Another winner for Budich. Great use of red and a wonderful looking layout. For more info on the artist, check out joshuabudich.com and follow @jbudich on Twitter. Also, watch The Royal Tenenbaums.
Jayson Weidel is the the guy who curates the amazing Planet-Pulp. He's also the guy who created this beautiful Fantastic Mr. Fox inspired print. So, that's cool. I love the detail in the animals' faces. Head over to oo-de-lally.com and follow @planet_pulp for more on Mr. Weidel.
Isaac Bidwell's "The Sinking of the Belafonte" is sure to please any Life Aquatic fan. Too bad it sold out. At least those of us who weren't able to grab one still have the above JPG, right? In all seriousness, Bidwell absolutely killed it. Well done, sir! Visit isaacbidwell.com and follow @isaacbidwell for more info on the artist.
Posterocalypse favorite Tracie Ching created this awesome looking print, and wouldn't you know it, everyone and their mama wanted one and now it's sold out. Go, Tracie! I can't wait to see what she does next. To see more of the artist's work, point your browser to tracieching.com and follow @tracieching on Twitter.
The Baumer is back! Though this time it's in the form of Jeff Boyes' killer Tenenbaums inspired poster. This may be my favorite Boyes print yet! To learn more about Jeff, check out visualtechnicians.com.
And that's that! If you find yourself in the San Francisco area, be sure to see the show in person. Visit spoke-art.com for gallery info and sign up for their newsletter to get the heads up on all future exhibitions. Good night!

"My piece 'Ain’t No Trip to Cleveland' for the 'Bad Dads' Wes Anderson tribute show at Spoke Art that opens next Friday, the 26th. The color palette and simple illustration style are inspired by vintage fireworks packaging. Click the photo to buy on the gallery’s website.
I feel like the lone nerd who did not do either Moonrise Kingdom or The Life Aquatic for this show, but I can’t help it … Bottle Rocket is one of my favorite films of all time."Ridge's "Ain't No Trip to Cleveland" print is currently available through Spoke Art for only $25. The poster measure 18" x 24" and is limited to an edition of 50. Check out Ridge's blog at ridgerooms.com and follow @ridgerooms on Twitter.
