After UPS decided to play rugby with the first set, a fresh batch of the screamin’ bird screen prints for the Poster Cause Project finally came in for me to sign/number.
I took a few angle shots to show off the background cage detail.
All profits from the sale of the print go to Action Against Hunger. They are set at $60, but for the next few hours you can get 40% off with code “LAUNCHED”.. even though that will lower the money going to charity.. just saying.
SKWAAAAA. The Poster Cause Project produces posters and prints with the proceeds going to a number of reputable charities. They’re now offering screen prints, starting with my piece above!
It is a 4 color 18″x24″ print. (the dark grey you see there is a texture printed under the black, in case you are color counting), signed and numbered edition of 50, with 100% of the profits being donated to ACF/Action Against Hunger. Please help support a worthy cause, and get some nice art for yourself in the process!
They are currently up for pre-order at $65 (includes shipping), and are due to begin shipping on May 16th, 2010.
Prints now available! Tell your friends, call your mom, alert your enemies, mention it passing to your dog.

This was one of several quick notebook sketches of the concept.
Two weeks ago I took a trip down to the print shop to check in on a new print edition I’ve been working on. Here are a few shots of the work in progress, more photos and edition information tomorrow!
These guys are actually finely-tuned printing robots, there is no other explanation for their speed and accuracy.
Mmm…goopy. The last step in the printing process is laying down the black enamel linework, this is where the image all finally comes together.
Through test prints, screen clears and alignment checks the shop ends up with quite a few “unintentional collaborations” between artists. Some of these are really interesting.
This multi-tonne WWII era beast of a machine would not hesitate to cut your hand off, except that it fortunately requires two hands to operate.
Hmm what’s this? An alternate color for print club members? Shh, don’t tell them, they may not have opened their mail yet.
These lovely letterpressed prints arrived in the studio this weekend. They came out great! The print shown here is an 8″x8″ edition of 50 and will be available in May. The blue edition peeking from behind the corner is the Print Club+ members exclusive.
In other print news for those of you who missed out on Print Club+ membership, the additional 20 EAT! screenprints and a bunch of the King of Corn litho prints are now available at the deadzebra shop.
