“Toys!” show at Gallery 1988 now online

April 3, 2008

The “Toys!” show that is going on at the Gallery 1988 in LA is now online for your viewing pleasure. All art inspired by the toys of our youth, if your that old, and also some customs celebrating Hot Wheels 40th.

Some really great art is in this show. I’m particularly fond of Camilla D. Errico’s paintings and those by Scott Scheidly, Johnny Crap, Davey Wong, Casey Weldon and of course those artists that were shown on the Creep Machine at one point such as Jim Harker, Allison Torneros, Lindsay Carr, Mark Brown & Shannon Bonatakis.

It’s a great show that brings up a lot of memories. I really hope they make a print of the Anthony Clarkson “Playtime’s Over” painting (shown). That “My Pet Monster” looks like he’s ready to bring the pain.

Allison Torneros “The City” giclee print

March 7, 2008

Allison Torneros was one of the Creeps first “Art of the Day” posts way back in August. The piece featured was this very one, “The City”. It’s mixed media and is a great image, and I’m obviously not the only that thinks it great. Allison was also featured in the “Reader Art” section of Juxtapoz.

Gallery 1988 is releasing a limited edition print of this piece. The print is 11″x14″ and is limited to an edition of 88, hand signed and numbered. It’s very affordable at only $75. I’m really happy that that her work is being seen and enjoyed by so many people.

Head on over to Gallery 1988 to grab one these prints Gallery 1988 or just e-mail them at gallery1988@aol.com
