Christmas Eve Surprise

These are officially available tomorrow but mailing list friends get first crack at them now.
Go check 'em out and Happy Holidays!


Thanks for a great 2010 and let's all look forward to an even better 2011 :)

Mind Over Matter

This is a little something my friends at Mama's Sauce Print and Design and I did together.

Mind Over Matter represents the artist taking nonlinear creative concepts and actualizing them in physical terms. In other words, translating the mind's ether into something the rest of us can see, touch, and hang on the wall. This is what we do, and it's something I always struggle with, boiling the "thing of it" down that much yet still retaining the conceptual essence.
I released these December 2009 and sold out immediately. Nick over at Mama's just put a few up, so if you missed out the first time go get em now!

New Print - Lonely? Find Love

"Single, yellow male seeks someone to go for walks in the woods, runs in the fields and the occasional mischievous act. Must like to snuggle by the fire in the evenings, parmesan cheese, chicken and drywall. Needs to be receptive to many slobbery kisses and lots and lots of love."

Available Wednesday, August 4 @ 8pm ET here - http://aelhra.bigcartel.com/
UPDATE - all editions are sold out.

New Print - Black Bettie

Black Bettie pays homage to the ever-lovely 50s pinup model Bettie Page run up against the solarisation photo process employed by the classic surrealist Man Ray (among others). Solarisation has yielded some unexpected and exciting results in my own fine art photography, I recommend the photographers out there give it a try. There's four versions of Bettie, black and silver colorways on both white paper and sand paper. I liked the way each one had a really different flavor. Grouping them as sets seemed to make sense.

Odalisque

I'm happy to share something new today. It was initially prepared for the Leia Bell show but I ultimately went with the more subtle Contemplation design. Odalisque is rather direct and complements where I'm at now. As many of you know printmaking is a serious passion of mine. I see the purest expression of that in painting and pulling originals. Getting messy hands-on is also more fun.

I'm offering several of these on the full sheet uncut, each uniquely hand-painted.

Expect a lot of variation on these!

New Print - Digital Lover 2

Two versions (hand-deckled, edition of twenty and hand-finished original, edition of five) of this image will be available Tuesday 4/6 @ 8pm ET in my store. Both versions are hand-pulled by me.

Is winter over yet?

Like the bumper sticker says, "I'd rather be..."

Debacle!

As many of you know, my Winter Wonderland release was a fabulous disaster. Both editions oversold resulting in lots of substitutions and refunds. Not ideal.
One way I tried to knock back the disappointment out there was to replace some of the oversold Special edition with custom pieces. This way folks could still walk away with some art. The last of those were completed over the weekend and shipped out Monday. Now I can't promise I'll be able to do this every time something goes wrong, but I do try to make things right.

New Print - Beautiful Dreamer 2

Available Monday a sequel to my 2008 Beautiful Dreamer.

This will be available in two editions.
If you already have the 2008 print and would like the same number, just drop me a line..happy to accommodate.

April Boston Comic Con

If you're anywhere around New England or don't mind taking a long drive from elsewhere...I'll be hanging here all weekend meeting folks and making new friends. Like last year I'll again have a crazy stack of screen prints and originals on the table, so if mail order isn't your thing come on by and touch 'em, feel 'em, buy 'em!

Full details here.
