A. Richard Allen

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

Please welcome A. Richard Allen to Thumbtack Press. He has a wonderfully whimsical retro vibe going, but the themes deal mainly with modern day scenarios. The above image, Pigeon, is my personal favorite (in case you’re keeping score!) www.thumbtackpress.com

NEW prints from Ken Wong!

Wednesday, February 14th, 2007

These two new images by uber (and still way too young to be this talented) artist Ken Wong are stunners, and even though Rapunzel and Red and the Wolf are like themes I have decided not to make them a set . . . but you can, buy them both — poof — you have [...]

Liza went to Otis (my alma mater) and was in the class above mine. In fact, she’s in a class way above me! I’ve added the detail inset because . . . well . . . because you just had to see it! She is a wonderful artist who I’ve always admired. www.thumbtackpress.com

Rob Dunlavey

Saturday, August 20th, 2005

Rob Dunlavey is the first artist on Thumbtack Press that works vector only, if you don’t know what that is it’s okay—just know that you will get a razor-crisp print with with the most vivid colors imaginable. This one’s titled 11-26-03 which has a significant meaning to me, it’s my birthday, 11-26, (I like Thumbtack [...]

Gina Triplett

Sunday, August 7th, 2005

Early on I developed a very sophisticated and complex method for recruiting new artists: I find stuff on the web I like and send the artist an email. I was shocked—shocked—at how effective this method works . . .

I always get a thrill when I get a postive reply from an artist - and even [...]

Brandon Reese strikes again with two great new prints! In Memory of Skippy (pictured) and Parchment Bluefish.

These remind me of prints from my own childhood. Mom wouldn’t buy cutesy, childish junk to decorate my room, she bought stuff she liked. I distinctly remember an etching of a nasty looking hare with its claws bared by [...]

Joanne Lew-Vriethoff

Jo’s got some very wry paintings that would be great for the kids’ rooms . . . at first glance. This one’s called ‘Perky Nipples.’ www.thumbtackpress.com

Colin Johnson

Sunday, July 17th, 2005

Colin Johnson (not pictured) continues the fine tradition of minature painting. These two paintings for example are a just a tad smaller than a CD case. Colin is proof that bigger is not always better. Colin works a little larger as well. www.thumbtackpress.com
