  • New paintings available from Naoto Hattori

    Naoto Hattori has once again updated his online shop with some new original paintings. A few of these new ones are portraits like the one shown below. I really like when he paints faces, this has to easily be my favorite work by him so far. The mixture of texture, the soft facial features and the floating orbs are all great. The one shown is entitled “Pheromone” and is acrylic on board, 4″ x 5.9″ and is framed.

    Head on over and check the new work out, they are going fast. Naoto Hattori Online Store

  • “Good Samaritan” framed canvas print by Naoto Hattori

    Coming this Saturday at the Copro Nason Gallery, the “Good Samaritan’s” group show opens up. Naoto has a painting in the show and has just released a print based on it. So you get a jump on the print before the show even opens.

    This is one of the most exciting prints I have seen him release so far. The print is a frames canvas giclee, 8″ x 8″ (12.5″ x 12.5″ framed. It’s signed and numbered in an edition of 25 and is $350. That’s a pretty small edition for such a killer print, so I don’t think this one will last long. Also if your interested, you can contact the gallery about the original here: Copro Nason Gallery.

  • “Anumodana”, new print by Naoto Hattori

    Naoto Hattori has just updated his online print shop with a new limited edition giclee print. The print is 16″ x 20″ in a signed and numbered edition of 100.

  • “Queen Wasp”, new print by Naoto Hattori

    Naoto has an upcoming show at the Limited Addiction Gallery along with Anthony Ausgang and Lori Field, but a new print is available from his shop as we speak.

    The print is 13″ x 13.5″, signed and numbered in an edition of 50. This is a really killer print, I love the layout, all the action that is going on in this piece and I am a big fan of any art based on wasps and bees. The face and body of the Queen Wasp look quite amazing. Head on over and check out the new prints, and keep your eye open for the new show he will be a part of.
