Colin Johnson

Sunday, August 12th, 2007

You’ll be happy to know 7 new prints from Colin Johnson were posted this weekend. I love Colin’s images because they “print well”, and that’s hard to explain unless you’re a printer, if you are, then you know exactly what I’m talking about.

Colin belongs to the first-10-artists-club on Thumbtack. In 2005 I did an [...]

Magazines: They’re websites you, like, “flip” through…and stuff

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

In it’s August issue, ReadyMade Magazine dedicated a spread to affordable art and prominently showed-off two amazing artists on Thumbtack; Jared Drew Moody and Chris Silas Neal.

Pick up a copy and support a really great mag. Or better yet, buy one of these great prints and support two really great artists! www.thumbtackpress.com

Vanessa Tam

Wednesday, August 8th, 2007

It’s been quite a while since I’ve introduced a new artist on Thumbtack Press. It’s worth the wait once you view Vanessa Tam’s work. I hope she’ll be submitting some more work soon.

I love it… How ’bout you? www.thumbtackpress.com

Brad Yeo

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

I’m honored to announce that Brad Yeo has joined Thumbtack Press with images like this one. Brad is a brilliant talent, as you can plainly see, and he’s also a very prolific artist as well. I’ve been a fan for a long time - expect more from Brad soon! www.thumbtackpress.com

Richard A. Goldberg

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

… And the hits just keep-onnnnnnn coming!

Before A. Richard, we had Richard A. Goldberg (that is) and he brings three new prints to his tackboard. An amazing talent as always. www.thumbtackpress.com

Karen Barbour

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

If you’re anything like me you are addicted to the American Illustration annual. And if you’re addicted to AI then you already know Karen Barbour and her stunning work. I am very pleased to see it on Thumbtack Press.

My only gripe: Not Enough!!! Send us more Karen!!! www.thumbtackpress.com

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

Nick Deakin

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

Nick Deakin has also gifted us with a bunch of new prints. If you have been watching his store closely you will have noticed his style is changing faster than I can change out his tackboard! Nick doesn’t “try” out a new style with one painting - oh no no no - he goes for [...]

Wilson Hsu

Monday, March 26th, 2007

I couldn’t settle on which one of Wilson Hsu’s TWENTY-TWO new prints to showcase, so here are all of them! Yes. Twenty … Two … New … Wilson Hsu prints.

… you’re welcome. www.thumbtackpress.com

Bob Dob’s Baseball Heroes

Wednesday, February 14th, 2007

And saving the best for last, Bob Dob offers up this red-blooded American set of prints of Crusher, Cannon, and the Human Flytrap, or just buy the whole set for under a 100 bucks (which, is about three drinks at Starbucks).

You cannot really grasp the amount of care and attention that Bob put into this [...]

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 [...]

Paul Blow

Wednesday, February 14th, 2007

Paul Blow also joins Thumbtack Press with four very impressive prints. I love his style because the printed product is so amazingly sharp and pristine. He is a terrific illustrator with some pretty complex narratives. If I were a betting man I would guess he’s a big fan of Japanese prints of the 1800s like [...]

Matt Mills

Wednesday, February 14th, 2007

And the hits just keep on coming with the addition of Matt Mills to Thumbtack Press. I asked Matt to come aboard for two reasons, 1) We never had pure cityscape images which is a favorite subject of mine and 2) The above image. I love Kansas City and spent a week there with my [...]

Patrick Leger

Wednesday, February 14th, 2007

Okay my valentines! Are you ready for a cornucopia of new prints from three NEW Thumbtack Press artists (not to mention a few from your old favs). Let me begin with Patrick Leger, he brings an amazing set of images to the site. Not only are the images riveting, but so is his medium

Most of [...]

Brandon Reese

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

I’m happy to show off Brandon Reese’s new print, Nut Craze. Frankly, everything Brandon does puts a smile on my face, ‘cept this one makes me sad. OK, I’m better now.

If I had a kid I’d decorate his room with Brandon’s stuff . . . wait, I do . . . and I did! www.thumbtackpress.com

Kristian Olson

Friday, January 19th, 2007

How do I even begin to preface Kristian Olson and his amazing style. His work proves, once again, that illustration is an ever-changing and evolving trade. His images are simply awesome. He works with old school detail - like a the back of a Hoyle playing card, or printed currency - but with the marriage [...]
