    The site has a couple of new sponsors, Worried Shoes and Dirty Pilot. I know that I have mentioned these sites before and am very glad to have them on board. Worried Shoes is a site that is filled with the art of Daniel Johnston. You can find originals, prints and work from the 70’s and 80’s as well. Dirty Pilot is a gallery located in Cochituate, MA. Not only do they have some great exhibitions going on, but you can also find prints and books that are exclusive to the gallery.

The limited edition of the book has now sold out, but this version is ready to go. The book is hardcover, 248 4c pages, 9″ x 6″ with a die-cut and embossed cover for $34.95.
    There are a few previews around that show what is inside the book, but with the quality of work that James creates, I’m sure this book is going to be amazing.

  • Jeremy Forson @ Edo

    Just this past Friday, Sept 4th at Edo in San Francisco, Jeremy Forson opened his solo show “The Lost Fight”. These new paintings are a bit of a change from Jeremy’s previous works. The colors are a bit more intense in some areas, and it appears that he is spending more time during the initial stages of each painting. The subjects all center around San Francisco. I really dig how he incorporated the figures and buildings in some of the works, sharing the same space but not being plunked down in front of each other as if they were just photos. I have been a fan of Jeremy’s work for some time now, and I really like these new paintings. The show is up until 11/4, I plan on seeing them in person soon.

    Jeremy has some reception photos on his blog: Jeremy Forson Blog
    And for the rest of his work check out his hompage: Jeremyforson.com

  • New prints by João Ruas

    João Ruas is a Brazilian artist that has recently taken up the duties as the new cover illustrator for the Fables comics, previously James Jean. While the way that each artist applies the paint may look similar, the styles especially the way each one deals with figures is quite different.
    Joao has just added two giclee prints to his online shop. Both prints are ” Ultrachrome print on 300g Hannemuhle archival paper”, limited to editions of 50. It also looks as though they have varnishing applied to them.
