  • “The Warriors” posters by Tyler Stout and Eric Tan @ Mondotees

    In the past few weeks the Alamo Drafthouse, who release some of the coolest movie inspired posters around, announced that they are doing a series of poster prints based on cult classic “The Warriors”. I have always been a big fan of that movie, but not a lot of art has been created from it. The first releases for this series are from Tyler Stout and Eric Tan. There are 3 posters available from Stout, a cut set at 16″ x 24″ each, metallic inks, signed and numbered in an edition of 450 for $35. Then there is the uncut version with a bonus sidebar with more illustrations, 24″ x 36″, signed and numbered in an edition of 200 for $80, there is also a variant gold/silver uncut posters that is unfortunately sold out. The poster from Eric Tan is a 24″ x 36″ screenprint, signed and numbered in an edition of 300 for $30.

    These prints are bound to go fast, so make sure you head on over and pick one up: Mondotees.com

  • Dan Harding originals @ Congregation Gallery

    Congregation Arts, the folks that have been put on the Forgotten Saints, Voodoo and Metal inspired shows now have a full fledged website. Images from their last show “The Second Annual METAL Art Show” are now up to view. Paintings by Cam De Leon, Vincent Castiglia, Chris Peters, Fred Harper, Vince Locke, Cate Rangel and the always amazing Dan Harding are still available. The painting by Dan used for the flyer “Threshold” (shown) and another “Apocalyptic Self” were in the show. I really dig “Threshold”, the colors are great and the pose he has that figure in is really dynamic. If you have never seen a Dan Harding painting in person you are truly missing out. The details he achieves with oils is nuts. His work is starting to sell out faster as the shows go by, I am honestly surprised these two are not sold yet. Especially for the price they are set at.

  • Artists Profiles: Andrew Wodzianski

    An artist working out of Washington DC, Andrew Wodzianski graduated with a Masters from the Maryland Institute College of Art. His work has been published the Washington Post and shown at galleries such as Art Whino, Fraser Gallery and more. He works in a variety of mediums; inks, gouache, marker, acrylic and oils. His mixed media works have a more graphic feel to them, while his oil paintings tend to be more classical in style. It is his paintings that caught my eye from the start. You’ll first notice looking in his gallery that he has quite a few series of works. From his muted and washed out “House” series to the “Sequences” and “Coulrophobia” (fear of clowns) series. I really enjoyed the “Lucha Libre! / Persephone & Other Paintings” section as well as his Earlier work which is the most classical out of the bunch. The painting that stands out the most to me is “Paul” (shown), which was inspired by DH Lawrence’s “Rocking Horse Winner” and Caravaggio’s “Conversion on the way to Damascus”. It’s a great idea and painted beautifully.

  • “The Multi-Plane” group show @ Corey Helford Gallery

    This past Saturday, December 12th at the Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City the “Multi-Plane” group show opened up. For the past few weeks I have been seeing some previews of some of the pieces in the show, one of the great reasons to check out artists blogs now and again. The idea of the show is that “Each of these paintings is an original work created on two layers of glass and a masonite panel background, emulating the multi-plane process developed by animators in the 1930’s to create depth in animated features. Each surface is separated by 3/8 of an inch and the entire painting is housed in a custom-made frame.”
