  • New prints from Bob Dob

    Bob Dob has added some new prints to his online shop. The first print is “Hodads” and is from his recent show at Billy Shire Fine Arts. The print is 20″ x 30″ on archival watercolor paper, signed and numbered in an edition of 50+10 artists proofs.

    He also added three Mousketeer prints, “Mouseketeer Mac”, “Maegen” and “Marek”. Each print is 6″ x 6″ on archival watercolor paper, signed and numbered in an edition of 100+10 artists proofs. The prints are only $16 a piece, or you also buy all three for only $40. I love the expressions on these faces.

  • Thumbtack Press and Bob Dob Help Out

    Cancer hits hard, but it hits the hardest when it’s little kids.
    To help with the tremendous responsibility of cancer research, Thumbtack Press is hoping to raise $3,500 to give to St. Jude Children’s Hospital this year. That’s $2,500 more than they raised in 2006!
    “Bob Dob has graciously donated all of his commissions for “Lonely Day” for the cause, likewise, Thumbtack Press will donate all proceeds of this print run to St. Jude… Every single penny.”

  • Original Maila Nurmi/Vampira Self Portrait

    vampira_self.JPG
    There is a self portrait by Maila Nurmi, also know as Vampira, for sale right now. The piece is pencil and sharpie on onion paper. It’s signed both Vampira & Maila Nurmi, dated ’99. The seller states that all profits from the sale will go to the Maila Nurmi Memorial Fund. There is also some signed photographs by the same seller.

    This is a great image. I have seen some other Vampira inspired pieces by Glenn Barr and Bob Dob, but it’s always a cool thing to get a piece of art made by the person featured in it.
