Camille Rose Garcia prints have arrived!



We just got in a batch of the CRG "Lil Elorphant" prints and will be contacting everyone on the list who pre-ordered one. We still have some so hit us up and we'll tell you how to get one of these beautiful prints. If you are in the area feel free to stop by and ask to see them in person, they are stunning.
This is a charity print, with ALL proceeds going to help the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust elephant rescue and rehabilitation in Kenya, so you get an amazing piece of art AND can feel good about helping adorable critters!

Travis Louie's New Art Book "Curiosities"



Oh boy- just in time for his new show at Roq la Rue (Opening Friday August 21st), Travis Louie's new book "Curiosities" is being released! I just got a preview copy of this and it looks AMAZING. Published by BabyTattooville and Gallery 1988, this hardcover book contain beautiful reproductions of Travis' menagerie of strange creatures as well as all the great stories that go with each "character".
We will have a book signing with Travis right before his opening so you can get a signed copy here!

Femke Hiemstra in Mark Murphy Comic Con show


From publisher and curator Mark Murphy's blog:

"Visit Booth 4833 at this year’s Comic-Con in San Diego where original artwork by Jeff Soto and Mark Murphy will be made available and high-quality art books featuring: Ray Caesar, Jeff Soto, Kathie Olivas, Bob Dob, Mark Murphy, Martha Rich, Jonathan Viner and more.

Mark Murphy will be featuring 40 original fine art pieces and a 36 page “zine,” entitled “Tax Me.” “Tax Me” is a stylized, editorial take on the current state of our economy and all of its consequences. All of the original paintings will be made available for acquisition."

The above is by our homegirl Femke Hiemstra...so wonderful. Speaking of Femke, keep an eye peeled for her new art book "Rock Candy" coming out soon from Fantagraphics!
