J.R. Goldberg has been busy making some new original paintings for a show opening this weekend in Ottawa, Ontario. The show is called “Seduction of the Idiots†and as stated on the site is “what can happen when comic and cartoon addiction is not dealt with early enough”. J.R. made four original paintings for the show, each one is acrylic on 6″x6″ wood panels. The collection is entitled “The Bloodies” and includes “Mashy†the Mallet, “Jabby†the Bottle, “Choppy†the Cleaver, and “Poppy†the Gun.” It looks as though these might also make it into screen-print form if there is enough demand. So head over to JR’s site and tell her you want a set of these as prints.

“Bolt Cougher” print by Jhonen Vasquez
Gallery Nucleus has just released a new print by Jhonen Vasquez. The print is a 19″ x 13″ giclee on watercolor paper, and the first 100 prints will be signed by the artist. The prints are only $40 each and are open edition, so there is no rush to get one, unless of course you want one signed. Love the colors in this one, and I am sure it would look quite dashing in a snazzy black frame.
