Mad Max vs Johnathan Bergeron, Bonnie & Clyde vs Aaron Jasinski

We just got an image from Johnathan Bergeron (aka Johnny Crap) of his finished movie poster for "Now Playing." Johnny had "Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome" and took a more subtle direction, but it works perfectly with the poster! His new character looks like he belongs in the movie.




(detail)

Aaron Jasinski took a completely different approach and added a lot of his own work to his poster, which is "Bonnie and Clyde." Here's an in-progress shot from Aaron...



It's really cool to see how everyone went their own way with this project. Everything we've seen so far is amazing and I cannot wait to have all of the posters together in the gallery. We have a few more weeks, so I know we'll continue to see some great pieces come in. In the meantime, be sure to stay updated with the show blog where you can see in-progress and finished posters and directly from the participating artists...

DamonCarltonAndAPolarBear.com & Ronie Midfew Arts are proud to be continuing the "LOST Underground Art Project." The 4th limited edition print, celebrating the greatest "water cooler" moments from the ABC television show "LOST" is by artist Eric Tan, and focuses on The Crash.

This is the 4th print, of an eventual set of 16, and was revealed at Crumbs Bakery in LA (Larchmont) and NY (Wall Street), where workers at the store wore custom made Dharma Cupcake jumpsuits, with the needed website printed on the back. These prints are limited to 300, but less then 200 are available for purchase. Each is hand signed and numbered, 24 x 18 inches inches and only $50.

You can purchase this print at ICanGetYouPeanutButter.com and follow the entire project at DamonCarltonAndAPolarBear.com, which may involve free LOST events and stunts in your area to announce the newest print!

For reals?

Now I KNOW you shouldn't miss this Wednesday night's "Inferno" solo show from Luke Chueh. He's delivering more than double the paintings you (and I) were expecting.

Counting blessings,

Uh-oh

The Evolution of Southpaw will be available as a set, and also individually, but different sizes and edition numbers for those options. Also, the set is much larger than you'd think. Not mini-prints.

Frame 3

DamonCarltonAndAPolarBear.com & Ronie Midfew Arts are proud to be continuing the "LOST Underground Art Project." The 3rd limited edition print, celebrating the greatest "water cooler" moments from the ABC television show "LOST" is by artist collective Methane Studios, and focuses on The Dharma Van.

This is the 3rd print, of an eventual set of 16, and was slyly announced during an episode of G4's "Attack of the Show," secretly integrating our website amongst other sites promoted during the show. These prints are limited to 300, but less then 200 are available for purchase. Each is hand signed and numbered, 24 x 18 inches inches and only $50. The prints are on black paper.

You can purchase this print at WeWereCaughtInANet.com and follow the entire project at DamonCarltonAndAPolarBear.com, which may involve free LOST events and stunts in your area to announce the newest print!

She's A Lady

With our new Whalen Dragon's Lair print and Perillo Dig Dug print now available, we wanted to tell you about a new video game themed giclee print from Misha, that we just got in the gallery.



You might remember Misha's last video game themed print sold it's way through 2 editions, found itself in People Magazine and has a little famous baby staring at it everyday. Well, this new print "Our Lady Of The Arcade," is just as awesome. Depicting Ms. Pac Man as the holy being she is, this print is 8.5 x 11 inches, signed and numbered in an edition of 50 and is only $50.

Pick it up before the ghosts get you. You can email us at gallery1988@aol.com or call us at (323) 937 - 7088 to order. We only have a few.

We're proud to announce Gray Haddock as the winner of our Crazy 4 Cult 3-D Tim Doyle poster contest. A few applicants actually got all of the movie references correct, so we printed them out and allowed my dog, Benjamin, to choose the winning email. So Benjamin likes Gray! If you're looking for the key and answers, check out last month's blog entry archive, under the name "Sus-tense."

Congrats Gray! And look out for next year's contest!
