Next up in the Warhol-inspired “Oil Can” print series… “STP Oil Treatment.” We like to joke that Warhol had soup, we have oil. Using the same basic can design as Warhol’s soup can, who used the design directly from a Campbell’s Soup graphic. Bringing it full circle… 

Will be a limited edition print of 20 on some sort of lovely French Paper, and will be signed and numbered. We’ve got some other fun oil can prints in the queue, so keep your eyes peeled.

Finishing up the last batch of commission work for a client/collector in Chicago. Here’s a sneak peek at an Edie Sedgwick “Poor Little Rich Girl” portrait, prior to being stretched on its frame.

Going through the personal archives and making some of my favorite, original Marilyn Monroe paintings up for sale. This is what happens when you start running out of room and need to make space to make more art. “Some Do Like It Hot” I and II available here.

The Marilyn obsession continues. Two flavors of the new ‘Marilyn Mini Prints’ now available in the company store. S/N first edition of 50 each, three color silk screen on Accent Opaque White 100# cover, 5” x 5.5” (2012).

“Marilyn Americana No.1” four color serigraph now available from Jonathon Kimbrell Fine Art. S/N edition of 10, 14 x 16 inches (2012). Prints No.2 and 3 available soon.

Andrew Warhola had soup cans. I have oil cans. New silk screen art print hitting the tables soon. Measures 16” x 20”, three color silk screen on acid-free heavyweight paper. Still pondering over the print run. Will be available thru Jonathon Kimbrell Fine Art in the coming weeks…might even do a few originals on canvas, too.

Being a creative person is a funny and difficult thing sometimes. Just when you think you’ve been scraping the the bottom of the barrel (so to speak) long enough, something happens to get the creative juices flowing again.

Beginning in January 2012 I’ll be starting a new series of hand made prints called “Studio Select.” This series will consist of larger, extremely limited edition hand made prints that will be much different from my usual gig posters and art prints. First on the books is this “Adult Stories II” print, which will measure 18” x 24” and be limited to an edition of only 10. I approach this series of prints from a gallery perspective in hopes to offer larger and more fine art oriented work from my studio. Each print in the series will come signed and embossed with the studio’s seal, as well as a certificate of authenticity. 

As I become more serious about my future as an artist I, in turn, am becoming more serious about the work I produce and offer to collectors and galleries. I think this “Studio Select” series of prints is a step in the right direction. The goal is to release a new “Studio Select” print every month or two as ideas come together. 

Release and ordering info will be available for the “Adult Stories II” print very soon, so please stay tuned.
