Thanks for the positive response about the print so far!

Several people on pp.com were made aware of this print release and upload via private message and I thank them for voting for the piece.

About the artist:
We Kill You is a young street artist from Toronto. His inspiration comes from the lack of color and fun in everyday city life. His wheat pastes are clever and colorful and often poke fun at "serious society". WKY is his first print release and we are all very excited about it. If you like it you can purchase it for $50 at http://www.showandtellgallery.com. As Flimby said we are a young gallery and do appreciate the support. Show & Tell was founded in 2008 as a way for Canadian contemporary and street artists to showcase their work on a larger scale; S&T is as much of an artist collective as it is a gallery. We are located in Toronto, so if you are local and want to come check out the space please feel free to get in touch.

If S+T can get art of the week from having enough friends pm'd that were willing to help out I say more power to them (I was too late on the message to help). Vote more often if you are not comfortable with that result. I doubt that the majority of EB users were asked to check it out.

Congrats S+T

Congrats to WKY for the AOW award, it's good to see new artists represented. But, more importantly, kudos and congrats to Show & Tell gallery for doing what galleries are supposed to do: successfully promote their artists.
Congrats once again to all involved and a sincere welcome to S+T.

good for the artist for aotw. however, this is the first time in years i've ever been surprised by a winner. 99.99% of the time I'm aware of the piece before it wins. that's not saying i'm privy to every piece out there and i'm by no means an expert but this smells fishy. sorry.
