Red 22 - New Silkscreen Print / Self Help Graphics

I finally got a chance to put some film positives together and make an official silkscreen print. Seems rather fitting that the first image I get to slap down on some nice heavy weight, acid free paper would be a giant red skull. Hence the title, "Red 22"
This isn't your typical giclee, Epson inkjet, limited edition until someone hits print again series. Nobody is going to run off a hundred more next year if they sell out quick. There are 80 prints in this edition and thats all she wrote.
I was invited by my friend Gronk, to meet with the people from Self Help Graphics in east Los Angeles. They have a great history of printing with artists all over L.A. Joe Alpuche and his son Ivan are two silkscreen master printers that can tear it up with the big squeegees on the vacuum table. They've been doing their thing for years and that kind of skill and attention to detail makes the whole process seem easy.

If you'd like more info on picking up a print for yourself, send me an email and i'll help you out. "Red 22" is a spanking new, very affordable print that would look great in any room of your house. You'll also have the added satisfaction of knowing you've helped keep my lights on a few days longer. What more can you ask for?

Took a few shots while roaming the shop. I was able to spend a few days there drinking coffee, working up the nerve to try the super hot sauce and playing with the fish. Its a friendly and professional shop with people that really know their stuff. A great experience for sure.
