Coming this Friday, February 13th, Art Core presents “Forgotten Saints”. This new group show is filled with featuring “Saints” that were forgotten, and those that should be. The lineup is pretty impressive. There will be work by: Gris Grimly, Vince Locke, Cam Rackam, Arabella Proffer, Tony Koehl, Alex Garcia, Cate Rangel and many more.
There isn’t much work online yet, but I did find a couple of images from the show to share. One from Arabella Proffer and the other from Cate Rangel.
Dan May solo show “Slow Collision” at the Copro Nason Gallery just opened up this past weekend. All of the work in the show is excellent, and one of my hopes was that the gallery would put out a print. Well they are releasing a print from Dan and it’s quite impressive. The print is 18″ x 24″, Giclee on archival board varnished & framed. Signed and numbered in an edition of 30. A good majority of the prints from Copro Nason are on board or wood, The print is already framed too, how cool is that?
This print is bound to go fast, so if you want to grab one before they are gone contact the gallery at:

“From Inside” is an animated film by John Bergin. It’s based on the graphic novel John made of a pregnant girl named Cee, “who finds herself on a damaged train slowly transcribing it’s way across a bleak, apocalyptic landscape”. If you check out the preview on the site you can see that’s its pretty dark, and looks to be a mix of animated sequences and drawn still images. That’s just what I can see from the preview though.
The film has been doing quite well in the independent film circuit, the site will give you the full rundown, trailer and the store even has some prints from the film. There is six prints total, all on 100% cotton, 300gsm paper. The main poster is open edition, while the others are limited to 50 or 150. I like how there is a few abstract looking prints along with the prints that feature scenes from the film.
The featured artists for February are now up. I have enjoyed the work of both of these artists for quite some time now and am happy they are on the site. Head on over to the Featured Artists are to check out their work.
I also would like to thank January’s featured artists, Catherine Brooks and Luke Kpycinksi. Both of them are now in the archive area on he featured artists page. Luke will also have a painting in the upcoming show the Creep Machine is curating, so expect to see that very soon.
The Scott Eder Gallery is currently having and “Online Exclusive Art Show” featuring work by Ashley Wood. The feature has selections of work from 48 More Nudes, World War Robot, Spawn Book of the Dead and more. There is a good mixture of oils works as well as ink on paper. I really love how energetic and often violent his works looks like, very similar to the way that Ralph Steadman and Ben Templesmith handle inks.
A huge majority of the works are nudes, so I’ll just post this preview, unless the Creep Machine readers don’t mind nudity I don’t think I have ever asked yet?
The San Francisco location of Gallery 1988 is going to be releasing a new print from Michelle “Mia” Araujo today. The print is based off of a painting Mia had at the “Illuminate” show at the Corey Helford Gallery. It’s being released today by Gallery 1988 at noon. The print is 16″ x 20″, signed and numbered in an edition of 25. To get one of these contact the gallery at (415)409-1376 or gallery1988sf@gmail.com
It’s really quite a striking image, I love the colors and peaceful expression she has.
Will Murai was one of the artists that you could find on Blueflip Art, but once the site closed down there was no place to get any prints from Will. You can now head over to inPRNT.com and check out a large selection of prints of some of Will best works. I haven’t seen a print from this site in person, but I have hear they look pretty good. It looks like each print has three sizes to choose from, 13″ x 19″, 18″ x 24″ and 24″ x 36″.
Here are a few of my favorites, and the site to get them: Will Murai Print Shop
Naoto Hattori has added a resin figure to his online shop. This new figure was hand painted and created by the artist. It is 9.5 inches tall, made of resin acrylic and silicon.
It looks pretty killer and I hope to see more figures like this from Naoto in the future. He also has some new paintings as well if you look in the originals section.
