NEW PRINTS!

official poster for At The Drive In reunion in El Paso, TX. april 13th, 2012
15×30” 5-color screenprint, signed & numbered artists edition of 100. $60
this is based off the infamous “classroom show” bootleg of the band from the late 90s, which until the era of youtube, was only available through dubbed VHS tapes purchased by sending actual cash in an envelope to a weird dude on the internet whos name was like PuNkGuYVHS69@aol.com along with a list of which bootlegs you wanted dubbed to your tape. paypal saw there was some money to be made from this, so then they started up and squashed decades of mailorder tradition. anyways, nowadays i can just link you to it.

12×24″ 5-color screenprint, signed & numbered AP edition of 50. $40
anyone whos caught American Horror Story knows that its a little out there, and its heavy on the atmosphere given the house is pretty much the star of the show. accordingly, its right up my alley. for what its worth, this is probably my favorite use of the figure as the lightsource ive ever pulled off.

TUMBLR
due to the insistence of people more up on the technologicals and socialmediatations, and out of a general frustration of ‘twit-tar’s limitations, i made one of them ‘tum-blar’ things. tinymediaempire.tumblr.com

JUST LIKE BEING THERE in BOSTON
this sunday evening Just Like Being There will be screening as part of the Boston Independent Film Festival. I’ll be there. you can sit next to me, but stay away from my popcorn. no spoilers, i dunno how it ends. more info at IFFBoston2012

Presented by Newbury Comics It’s been said that writing about music is like dancing about architecture. Still, apart from forming a band, how does one best express the passion and emotion of being at a live show? For a growing number of artists, the answer is to create silkscreened posters. After all, the handcrafting of these pieces is analogous to the hauling of gear, and the smell of the ink is like the smell of stale beer at the clubs. The work is so symbiotic that fans of bands like Arcade Fire, The Black Keys, The White Stripes, and Death Cab for Cutie are as avid about collecting their gig posters as they are about attending the gigs themselves. In Scout Shannon’s absorbing documentary, we embark on a voyage to meet the key talent in the growing community creating screen-printed posters for the indie music scene. Their works of modern folk art not only promote bands, but stand as vibrant reminders of the performances’ ephemeral nature. Like the shows they commemorate, the posters don’t last: after the initial run is sold, there are no more. The story of gig posters would be incomplete without the gigs, and JUST LIKE BEING THERE supplies riveting performances by Tokyo Police Club, Archers of Loaf, and others. Shannon nimbly balances the movement’s context, from its inception, with an introduction to the pantheon of the industry’s most talented artists. This portrait reveals that, although these passionate individuals were initially inspired by others’ works, they and their pieces stand for a unique creative vision. —Brian Tamm

“In the gig poster community, artists such as Daniel Danger and Jay Ryan prove that creating this artwork is a way of life, more than just a career. These artists are at the forefront of an expansion of the gig poster genre. MONDO’s reinvigoration of “the film poster as an art form,” and Gallery 1988’s theme based exhibits are only two ways in which this artwork is reaching a greater public. In a community with strong roots, dating back to the 1960s, this expansion is controversial- refreshing to some, sacrilegious to others.”

hey everyone. heres a new poster i did for CBSfilms ‘The Woman In Black’, which will be in theaters in early Feb. its a 24×36″ 5 color screenprint. i was excited to see the movie from the first trailer i saw a few months back, so when they asked me to do a poster, i was right on board. i’ve seen the movie and its incredibly up my alley and i think people are gonna really enjoy it. its not a modern horror movie, it feels classically ’spoken ghost story’ in its pacing and narrative, which is really sort of refreshing. plus, i want to live in that house. i will have copies for sale on my site at 2pm EST on February 3rd, the day the movie opens. there might also be some chances to win a copy on a few websites, so cruise around in the next few days.

hey all,
Thursday December 15th, at 2pm EST ill be putting up the remaining copies of the ‘wolf guard’ and ‘wet teeth in the darkness’ art prints. they are both 7 color screenprints, each 20×30″ image size on 22×32″ paper, and are editions of 150 each, and will be $75 apiece. as well, i shall be putting the remaining ‘devil town’ prints up for sale, which are 12×29″ inch 6 color screenprints in an edition of 150, and will be $50.

so, head on over to tiny media empire tomorrow and snag away should these tickle your fancy.

also! my paper lanterns are finally back in stock at Rotofugi. the first batch sold out rather quickly, and i sort of forgot to tell you all that more had finally arrived. http://www.rotofugi.com/toyscart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=9160   they are $12 apiece with an optional $7 light kit. as mentioned there, those blue 25 watt party bulbs look awesome in these. way better than a bright white bulb.

ok, im feeling a bit under the weather, so im gonna crawl into bed and try to get an early start tomorrow.
night night!

NEW SHIPPING POLICY: PLEASE TAKE NOTE

I’ve had a pretty weird year in regards to international orders, and have eaten it pretty hard on lost orders, so we have to make and state some actual policies.
For International Customers: For large expensive orders ($100-200+) or particularly rare prints, I will insure the order with Stamps.com/USPS against loss or damage at my own cost and my own discretion to protect myself. If your order is lost or damaged, I will file a claim and replace the prints. Insurance requires that the full value of the order be marked on the customs form, matched to the insurance form. The two numbers must be the same.
-We will add insurance if we think we need it. If we choose not to insure your order, and it gets damaged, I’ll work with you to get you a replacement.
-If for your own reasons, you choose to waive insurance on an international order, please email orders@tinymediaempire.com before or IMMEDIATELY after placing your order. If you specifically choose to waive insurance on an international order, TME is NOT RESPONSIBLE if your order gets lost or damaged, and will NOT replace it.
sound fair? YUP. IT IS.

UNCHARTED 3: DRAKES DECEPTION
i beat this game tonight. i don’t beat many video games, so i felt this note was warranted. im aware its not that hard of a game, but i bested it.

DEVIL TOWN @ GALLERY1988

Recently, Gallery1988 offered me the chance to curate my own show in their space. I wanted to do something that was more about environment and atmosphere; rural and distant suburbs, dead farmlands, quiet and dark towns, lampposts, convenience stores, high school bleachers, teenage suburban escapism, abandoned industry, etc. Generally the opposite of more defined ‘urban art’ conventions. The most suburban thing I could think of was waiting for someone in the parking lot of a Pizza Hut. If you’ve never experienced that, I don’t think you and I will ever truly be friends. The show opens Dec 2nd at their melrose location. I will have three new prints for sale at his show, and provided the paint gods are merciful, a painting or two. please click the link below for MORE DETAILS AND LINEUP!
DEVIL TOWN.

its 4am. goodnight all.

in the meantime, its Halloween, im off to this…

hey all! theres a fairly substantial multipage feature on me in the newest issue of Hi Fructose magazine. Its the one with the Andrew Hem cover, whos article follows mine. which is awesome, by the way, because Andrew has easily been my favorite current painter the last few years. i actually got distracted from reading my article by his. either way! go pick it up.

(ps. thanks for the borrowed photo jesse.)

as well, the paper lanterns we teamed up to make are now available in their store. click the image above.
