Thanks guys. Been working like crazy the past month and a half trying to get things finished up before the weather gets too cold to use the pressure washer to reclaim my screens. Felix is an awesome illustrator and has been great to work with. There will be between 10-14 new pieces and I'll start posting photos of the finished pieces as we get closer to the show.

Hi John,

Tried PMing you but for some reason it won't let me.
Just came across this:

http://www.chunkclothing.com/graphics-c ... y?cPath=11&

Don't know where you stand but looks like a blatant rip off of you're work.
Hope all is well, new work for your show looks great!

thanks karl,

as long as it isn't my actual art that was reproduced then i don't have a problem with it. it's just using two different pop culture images and mashing them together. i highly doubt i was the first to come up with the idea and i certainly won't be the last. does seem funny how the ziggy/stormtrooper helmet has popped up all over the place after i put out my print :)

i have however seen my actual art reproduced on t-shirts which i definitely do have a problem with and have shut down as many as possible. I've seen it sold on etsy, on shirts and as artwork, which i've shut down (etsy is great with that) but i've also seen it on eBay and amazon and neither of those sites seems to give a crepe about stolen artwork being reproduced and sold.

here are examples of my actual artwork being sold on eBay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/David-Bowie-Sto ... 3hkF-qVAHQ

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Stormtrooper-Da ... WynoeDveWw

it's fair game if people created their own versions... i just hate people profiting off of artwork that i created.

To be honest i was on my phone and didn't look closely if it was the exact same artwork. Just presumed it was.
Enoying when it is your own isn't it? iv had people selling canvas versions of my images, stating contact for prints. Somewhere in China also selling my images online. Oh well, to be expected i suppose.

may the 4th release!

To celebrate May the 4th this year, I am releasing two very low edition HPMs on wood based off of larger pieces I just created for a Star Wars art show being held tonight, May 4th, in Hawthorne, NJ.

Each HPM is an edition of 5 unique two color screen print on a hand painted 12"x12"x½" wood panel. They come signed and numbered on the back and ready to hang. Each order will also include a free sticker pack.

Both will be available today (May the 4th) at 12pm (noon) EST, on my website: http://www.con-art.com/shop

If you're interested in the larger, 24"x24" originals of these pieces, please contact me for more information and availability.

Thanks for looking & Happy Star Wars Day!
