POVevolving has just redesigned the POVeditions website. Now if your are looking for some of the amazing prints that they carry, it’s way easier to move around the site, see what they have to offer and even see what prints are coming soon. They have a great selection from such artists as Ana Bagayan, Mercedes Helnwein (shown), Kelly Vivanco, Phoebe Washer and many more.
Looks like its a good day for print releases, PovEvolving just released a new print from Ana Bagayan. The original painting of “Chelsea” was sold at her recent solo show at the Billy Shire Fine Arts Gallery, so for those that loved the image there is now a print to be had. The print is 14″ x 16″ with a one inch white border on Museo 365gsm Paper, signed and numbered in an edition of 30.
Coming this Saturday, March 21st 7pm to midnight at the Gnomon Gallery in Hollywood is “The Art of Sketch Theatre”. This is a group show featuring work by all of the talented artists that have been seen in the videos on the Sketch Theatre website. This is really a unique website, as you get to see the way that each of these artists work; as the video goes by you see the artwork unfold right before your eyes and are reminded of just how skilled these artists are.
The exhibit will feature raw sketches by Michael Hussar, Travis Louie, Ana Bagayan, Chet Zar, Greg “Craola” Simkins, Monk One, Gris Grimly, Shawn Barber, Nate Frizzell, Nikko Hurtado, Luke Chueh, Gene Guynn, Jordu Schell, Molly Crabapple, Jeff McMillan, Mari Inukai and many more.

Ana Bagayan has just added another print to her online shop, this new print is an open-edition print. This new print is on Hahnemuhle Fine Art Paper just as her other prints, but the size is 5.5 x 5.5″ on 6 x 6″Paper. The print is signed with a small “a” in archival silver pen on the bottom right corner, just as it is in the original.
I like this new print, the solid black background really pushes the portrait right out there. Well worth the $30.
Ana’s show at Billy Shire Fine Arts opens this Saturday, and I am not sure if there will be prints made from any of the works. However, if you head over to her homepage right now she does have a print available. The print is 10″ x 10″ on Hahnemuhle Fine Art Paper, signed and numbered in an edition of 50. Her Etsy site also has the same print for sale, as well as an original drawing, all framed up. So if you can grab anything from here show there is alternative ways to get her art.

Ana Bagayan has updated her website, flickr and blog. I was looking around and saw this image and just had to share it. The piece is entitled “Waterbirth” and as she says on her flickr account “Waterbirth is supposedly a gentle and less painful way to give birth.”
This painting trips me right out, I think thats what I like about it so much. It’s nice every now and then to get your brains shaken a bit.
