^Nice print Krisjay, interesting that it is on glossy paper - adds a nice touch to it's intensity.

Two prints I recently received:

Marco is so overlooked and underrated it is seriously a crime, some of the stuff he has done is truly stunning. This Sublime in my opinion will be one of the great classic rock posters of the "new" era, I would love to get one of his original paintings. Basically I love his work. I also have an A/P of his Surface art print(huge), and several of his rock posters, The Primus is great, really need to get his Gwar poster with the kids and the army men on it.
Burn, baby, burn!!!!

Not technically recent, but a short while back, picked up a few of the different ad posters Kozik did for Steel Reserve really cool posters , on foil paper no less. The plane is the same silver as the beer cans, but no matter what angle I tried always came out like this, so sorry for the crappy pics, but if you get a chance to get any of these at a decent price, more than worth it. I believe that there are regualr paper versions of this also? I'm asking.

I simply mentioned if they wanted to draw all over it, they could and i would be super stoked since the print looks like it is begging to be doodled already, I never expect it tho, some artists def ignore you if you request a doodle.

Got back from an extended vacation a few days ago. Came home to Saber's Flag, Miss Bugs' new print, and a few other things, but these little guys really surprised me. I love these things. 2010 was certainly a great year of print buying, 2011 will consist of a few originals (I hope) and restraint from impulse print purchases.

That red/blue variant is the tits.
Good luck on resisting the impulse buying.....but be honest with yourself, its gonna be a rough road.
There needs to be a support forum.

I picked up "life is ugly" by rene, and I got a "Con Artist" for free! Was going to frame the Life is Ugly, but I think I'm going with Con Artist now.
