Emek National Fear Association T-Shirt

The fine folks at Nakatomi have joined with artist extraordinaire EMEK to bring his amazing National Fear Association design to T-Shirts for a limited time!

NOTE- First 50 orders will also get a 4×4 circle sticker of the NFA logo, AUTOGRAPHED by EMEK himself!

Best of all, Nakatomi and EMEK will donate 100% of all profits to Everytown For Gun Safety, a non-profit that does the good work of standing up to the NRA and their quest for increased profits for gun manufacturers. The NRA has proven time and again what their real goal is- more guns, and going against the will of the American public regarding common-sense gun-legislation. And how do you sell more guns? By selling FEAR. The more afraid people are- the more guns they buy. Violent crime rates in America are falling to levels not seen in decades – Americans are safer now than at just about any point in the last 20 years- but that goes against their narrative. So in this political season, take a stand for sanity and help us make a BIG donation to Everytown for Gun Safety, and rock this sweet t-shirt!

ABOUT THE SHIRT- Nakatomi will take pre-orders for this shirt from now until Friday night at MIDNIGHT Central time, and printing should begin the following week! This is a Gildan 100% ringspun cotton t-shirt will feature metallic gold ink!

***SHIRTS ARE AVAILABLE NOW HERE***

If you’d prefer this as a sticker as well, EMEK is selling sticker packs produced by the fine folks at Sticker Robot, get them HERE in his webstore.

Brian Methe Second Grade Amendment Print Release

Brian Methe is releasing a new screen printed art print this Friday entitled "Second Grade Amendment"

It will be available in three colorways in a run of 20 each.

I asked Brian about the idea behind this great print:

Honestly, I was having a argument on Facebook about gun control and I kept telling someone "how many dead children would it take for someone to change their thoughts about gun control?" If Sandy Hook wasn't enough for people to think we need to do something, how bad does it need to get and the thought that it would take something worse than that, or possibly that nothing is so bad to make people think differently about guns, which is more horrifying. I also thought about how everyone posts "first day of school" pictures of their kids on FB and how cool it is to see all these people going through these rights of passage at the same time, but how they all have worries and concerns about how that year will go, because we don't know and as much as you don't want to think that something like that (a school shooting) could happen, we really have no idea, but we all want our kids to be safe.

These will be available on his Etsy store page www.bmethe.com for $30 each with free shipping.

Flag of Despair & Blood Money HPM Hand Painted Multiples on US Currency Release

Took the picture before they were signed

See how the "Blood" comes through the bullet holes

I hate the NRA their money and influence is stripping the people of their right not to be killed. The majority of people in this country want gun control laws revised. But no one in Congress has the courage to do the will of the people, they would rather keep getting money from the NRA and fill their pockets while the streets fill with blood. The NRA has used scare tactics the past few years saying "Oh they are coming for your guns? " The only people saying that are the NRA who represent the gun and ammo companies. They have cashed in on this scare tactic with record sales and profits for those companies.

Let me be clear on something as well. I don't want your guns, I just dont want the people I care about getting shot but some dumbass that should not have a gun. A 90 second back ground check does not infringe on your rights. As a nation we can do better. 

As a form of protest or whatever you want to call it I give you Flag of Despair and Blood Money HPM's

Back ground on these pieces:

I have been to indoor gun ranges like 4-5 times. First time is scary, the noise is just crazy and I jumped almost every time better now but the first couple of times you hear a shot can be unnerving. Before I had used 9mm just to see what it's like. It's scary let me tell you, the percussion is nuts. You are nervous to pull the trigger then the kick and sound.

As part of this art project I wanted it shot with a real AR15. But I have a problem when I shoot, I'm right handed but left eyed. So shooting a hand gun is not a big deal but a rifle with a sights on it is a problem. Dude at the range helped me to shoot it left handed, right way to hold it and all that. When I use a paintball gun I shoot right handed, so this was the first time ever trying to shoot left handed. The things I wanted to shoot were 5.5 x 6 inches I attached 2 of them to the target sheet and put it at 15 feet away. I had 12 of them to shoot. At 15 feet shooting left handed for the first time I was able to shoot each one 2-3 times and the grouping was no more than 3 inches apart for the holes. After I shot my little targets I moved the big target that was 18 x 24 at least, to 30 feet and finished off the bullets I bought. At 30 feet the grouping was tight as well no more than 5-6 inches and I was not sighting my shots hardly.

The AR clip held 20 bullets. There is no practical application to an AR15, it's very easy to shoot, accurate and hardly any recoil. It really is scary that so many of these are out there and easy for people to get.

Also want to thank Emek for the idea of using money for a medium and of course Saber for his inspiration with his flag pieces.
