Being that I've been on the search for a Mac for a while now, I had to pull the trigger on a copper. I had to justify it as being an early Christmas present. I'll make sure to post pics when I get it.

Hasn't shown down here in a while, other than the murals around town. If he would show somewhere I'd imagine it could well be at Por Vida. The guys at the gallery and Mac go way back.

i really like The Mac's art all around but im really diappointed with his print choices. imo. he has done so many great walls by himself and with retna that would be amazing prints over most of the prints he puts out. its really disapointing. i dont really understand why artists dont notice that sort of thing. anyone in here know about his selection process?

I still don't understand why him and retna don't make prints of their better, more colorful murals they have done. All the stuff he puts out is cool but it's so bland

Agreed. Though, I have rarely seen any combo artist print that I've liked.

I see what you mean about the prints being bland, however I think the simplicity in color schemes on these prints does enable you to see the crazy number of values he is able to create with so few colors and keeping his pattern throughout. Very impressive IMO
