Please Post Bills

Very excited to see Gallery 1988's announcement of their upcoming show 'Please Post Bills' that I will be a part of.  The show is of course a tribute to comedic legend Bill Murray.

Artists were asked to pick one of their favorite Murray films to illustrate, and for me it was between 'Meatballs' and 'Ghostbusters'.  Peter Venkman won out over Tripper Harrison and got the silkscreen treatment.

My first time screenprinting out of art school found me spending a lot of cash on my own supplies, and making due with simpler solutions in place of professional studio equipment.  For example, the vacuum-sealed light exposure unit I had grown so fond of was replaced by a piece of glass and my desk lamp.  The lovely convenience of a power washing station was replaced with a low-pressure garden hose and my thumb.  Perhaps I may have taken a few of these things for granted..

The final edition consists of twenty hand-proofed prints of my image.  These 20 will be available for sale at the opening of the show, next Thursday, 11/3.

In addition, I have an Artist Print edition of 6 extras which didn't make it into the final 20 for sale now at my webstore.

Thanks for reading.
