David Flores And Adam Grason Peanuts Prints Release From Dark Hall Mansion

Dark Hall Mansion, under license from Peanuts Worldwide LLC, welcomes artist Adam Grason for two sweet and charming pieces on Charles M. Schulz's 1965 Christmas masterpiece, "A Charlie Brown Christmas." Adam, like may of their artists, is a big fan of Peanuts, in particular the Schulz Christmas classic, so story was essential to him and his beautifully hued and colorful pieces capture two different moments that, first and foremost, underscore the true meaning of Christmas, while also reflecting the sheer joy of the film and holiday season. Adam's pieces are available in individual 18" x 24" single prints or as a special 2-print gift edition set that includes both prints in 9" x 12" format.

Todd Slater Ring of Fire & Cthulhu Prints

Todd Slater released some more prints online that he released last month at MondoCon.

The creature featured in the print is Todd's imagining of the H.P. Lovecraft character Cthulhu.  Metallica has an real affinity for Lovecraftian horror and the imagery ended up being a fit.  Says Todd "This one in particular felt like my best work in blending the hard edged style I'm known for with a stippled effect I've been working on for a several years now."

Also while you're on Todd's site check out his Escher's Relativity prints. This was printed with his friends at Studio On Fire using etched copper plates and heated foils. It's the same process used on his Strange Attraction prints.  The last few he did with them have used 3 plates but he bumped the color up for this one to 5. Acccording to Todd "The prints look incredibly dynamic in person; I'm excited for you all to see these. The foils have a reflective/mirrored quality that change under different lighting setups... if you view the chameleon at certain angles the paper will lighten making the chameleon appear inverted, and nearly invisible."

Head over to www.toddslater.net to pick them up. Also Todd said if you live in the States his plan is to get these out and in your homes before Christmas.

"Hello! I'm Aren Vandenburgh, a multi-faceted creative type who lives in Eugene, Oregon. I spend my days fiddling with mobile apps in an office building and in the evenings I make pictures of critters, little houses, and the moon.

In my youth I was taken to see Wes Anderson's Bottle Rocket in the theater and it had a big impact on me. Ever since, I've been inspired by Wes' dense, immersive, imagined worlds, and so I lunged at the chance to work on a poster for Fantastic Mr. Fox, with it's warm color palette and pleasant excess of small animals."

My artwork depicts the post-apocalyptic scenario of the last iceberg.” - Onur Dinc
