I’ve raised our flat shipping rates for International customers. I didn’t want to but, unfortunately, I’m not immune to the recently raised transportation costs that have been adopted by our U.S. Postal Service.

On average an international shipment costs us about 14 bucks, that’s because our prints are secured in a large box, shipped flat, [...]

How do I sum up Gianluca’s brilliance? Easy. I just post his work. www.thumbtackpress.com

Wanna see a fresh face?

About a year ago I submitted a rather smug and seemingly-learned post to the uproar surrounding the Orphaned Works Amendment to our U.S. Copyright Law on IllustrationMundo.com. There was a fine article by Rob Dunlavey explaining the issue - and I posted a rebuttal that was hasty and mis-informed. I’d link you to the evidence, [...]

Sometimes I get overloaded running this business. The orders pile up or - even worse - don’t pile up, or I procrastinate bill paying to the point where I curse myself for letting them sit too long, let’s not even talk about taxes (or as I call it; invasive small business proctology), etc.

In short, when [...]

Bummer, Nick Dewar has decided to take down 16 prints from his store, BUT WHAT’S THIS!? He’s replaced them with NEW ones! www.thumbtackpress.com

Today it’s 90 degrees in my neighborhood, which is the first tangible harbinger of Summer - it’s been a long, long winter my friends. So it’s appropriate that Kobe artist Masayoshi Mizuho brings two new prints to his store, including this one titled The First Rain of Summer. www.thumbtackpress.com

Matthew Woodson brings 12 new prints to Thumbtack Press. I’ll let his work speak for itself. www.thumbtackpress.com

Thumbtack Press veteran Josh Sears returns, in TECHNICOLOR!! Josh is fun to watch as an artist because he is constantly turning corners and taking broad chances with his work, and always with incredible results - like this on one titled “Crow Alley.” www.thumbtackpress.com

“Bringing the Bomb,” indeed. Dave Pressler, has blimps on his mind, and he doesn’t mind showing you. I love the images, the narrative, and the subject, but do you know what I like best about Dave’s prints? It’s the time of day he paints. He’s a twilight-kinda guy. www.thumbtackpress.com

No. literally. Shout.

Shout, a brilliant artist from Milan has added his equally brilliant works as prints on Thumbtack Press. Each piece is impeccably cerebral (yes, I said impeccably cerebral - and I meant to), yet fun at the same time. There’s no shortage of prints to view either - Shout has generously added 23 [...]

It’s an honor for me to welcome Spanish artist Riki Blanco to Thumbtack Press. He doesn’t arrive empty-handed either, he has 18 incredible prints available for purchase. As you can see I couldn’t chose just one to preview!

Unfortunately it’s too late to get these in time for Christmas presents, but go ahead and get one [...]

What a Print! The Birds of a Feather Triptych is my favorite Mutt Ink print. It’s both melancholy and whimsical, heartbreaking and uplifting. They’ve really outdone themselves! www.thumbtackpress.com

I can’t tell you why these new images from Matt Mills are so stunning. They are, after all, just furniture… But Matt Mills also sells a lot of prints that are just buildings too.

I think it’s like a well-told story, if you try to dissect why it’s great, it loses it’s brilliance. www.thumbtackpress.com

Wow! Wowwy wow wow! He’s an illustration icon and visual pioneer - he’s J.Otto Siebold and he has prints on Thumbtack Press!.

J.Otto spoke at my Alma Mater when I was a senior; he was a terrific combination of high-larious, informative, and inspiring. He only has three prints up right now, including this one with the [...]

Nathan Ota triumphantly returns to Thumbtack Press with a dozen new prints. Nathan is an illustrator, in the purest sense of the word. He knows anatomy better than most M.D.’s and has graciously shared his knowledge of illustration to students at both Otis and Santa Monica Colleges for years - in fact he was an [...]
