Candy for Strangers

Presenting Eat POP! featuring; Ring Pop, Wax Lips and Blow Pop, a special series in honor of the season, available Gallery Night, this Friday, October 21, 5-9 pm, and because we made a career out of bringing affordable art to you in the past we thought we'd make make these available at a special low price.

Despite the fact everything as gone up; food, gas, booze, clothes, tuition, etc., not to mention the value of our own work, these 4" X 4" canvases, featuring a mix of serigraph and hand-painted embellishments, will be on sale for only $20 a piece. Kind of our own incentive plan to get people collecting again.

Gallery Night is Friday, October 21 and we're located at 207 E. Buffalo St., Third Floor. Friday hours 5 pm-9 pm and Saturday, 11 am -4 am.

U-S-A! U-S-A!

The image above, from the Monkey Business series, a tribute, of sorts, to over the top patriotism, will lead you to the updated site for our very own Gene Evans, featuring several images form the series (or you could click here)

For Monkey Business Gene served as art director, model, and master silk screener/ink slinger and master of ceremonies of the general tomfoolery that ensued during the entire work progress.

The Revolution Will Be Twittered

The Revolution Will Be Twittered (or Facebooked or whatever your preference in social media may be - though we doubt it would be Google Plussed) is the name of the latest piece.

Released in a small batch a few weeks ago, as you can see, each piece features hand painted elements and screened one at a time making each piece unique. It's the only way to present such work.

The image above features our model wearing the now infamous Guy Fawkes mask. Not sure about the significants about the character portrayed above - click here (the information you seek will be about halfway through the blog entry).

Each piece acrylic on panel, 6"X 8" (1 - 7/8 deep), ready to hang or stand freely on your desk or book self next to your copy of the Anarchist Cookbook or 2600 the Hacker Quarterly, $50 each (free shipping in the US). Contact us for more info.

Where Art Lives

Last month we shared bits and pieces of our art collection with you. This time around we'd like to share works of art, mostly by our own Bridget Griffith Evans, in other peoples homes.

First is a commission piece for Jeff and Kat Murrel. A larger piece, acrylic with broken pieces of broken vintage culver glass, which Jeff collects.

and from this weeks Journal Sentinel we have a shot from the home of Stephanie Bartz. This one may be a little harder to make out, but the 6 small pieces on the wall are actually a series of hearts by Bridget Griffth Evans;

We'd also like to share a few shots of the home of Steve Smits. The painting to the left; Untitled by Bridget Griffith Evans;

and an entire room featuring the spray-paint stencil work of Gene Evans. The series features a number of pop icons (circa 2003);

The next is a piece by Bridget that Deborah Hobbins commissioned of her son Isak with two robins which hangs over the fireplace in their living room.

And, Jack Eigel's beloved Morris immortalized by Bridget in a cool vintage frame that Jack brought in;

One of Bridget's landscapes that decorates the wall of Jim Phillips Wauwatosa showroom;

Here's a shot of Bridget's Saffron Finch (from "The Mysteries of the Universe Reveal Themselves to Birds" series) in the home of Maxine and Corey Hengen.

We'd like to hear from you if you'd like more information on commissioning a painting. Call us at the shop at (414) 223-2215, and if you have one of our pieces in your home - send us a pic!

Pluralis Majestatis

Just a few words on the Studio's use of the word "we". Is it enough to say we use the royal "we"? That is to say when we say we're working on something it doesn't necessarily mean we're side by side or hand in hand - though it could.

We work on a ton of projects and, honestly, couldn't imagine spending the time to declare, specifically, who is working on what - except in the case of the person who ask the questions and prompted this entry.

Hope we cleared that up.

(we used the image above because we thought it was damn funny - "we" meaning both of us)
