Another newbie intro!

Post by RhoBearToe »

Hey guys!

New to the forum, just wanted to say hello and give a little introduction. I just recently came across Shepard and his work and really enjoy it all. I've only gotten the George Harrison "Poster for George" and the Debbie Harry prints so far. They're awesome! I also collect records which I've been doing for a couple years now. I really love music so a lot of the prints I try to get from Shepard are the ones of musicians or ones that are music related.

Not only am I new to Shepard but I'm new to collecting art in general. If you guys have any suggestions of other artists that I may like and should check out let me know!

Thanks!

Hey, welcome. Poke around this section: http://forum.thegiant.org/viewforum.php?f=19

Folks on here who are fans of Shep are also generally fans of Banksy, Bast, Jose Parla, Barry McGee, Kaws, Dolk and the rest. Remember, Shepard Fairey is the gateway drug.

If you like music orientated prints from Shepard then this one of Smokey Robinson (signed by both) is still available

For pricing info on Obey prints and other prints you can check out http://www.expressobeans.com. It seems for be more of a movie poster crowd on expressobeans but many also collect gig posters.

I'm also new around here, purchased this last week after seeing it in the off the beaten path prints, you might be interested since it's Rollins.

Only problem is they didn't do the best job shipping it, if you order you might want to in the comments say how you'd like it rolled and to use paper. There was no paper and it was rolled lengthwise, came out a little bent up.
