The Giant

One is a 1.5" deep canvas and painted on the sides, thinking of not framing at all. The one from his recent show I think i'll do in a black frame with a float on the sides. No Glass. I'll see if I can find a pic of a frame like I mean.

Check out our boy on the marquee with some rather heavy hitters at the Merry Karnowsky group show:

Yeah, but am I blind? Where is the link to his work?

+pie. Good things happening to good people.

I thought the same thing. I guess I assumed that if each artist has past history with the gallery they're linked to that specific stuff...

congrats sam!

Anyone have any news on Sam/FrePrs?

Been wondering if he has anything in the works but this thread has been real quiet for quite some time.

Apperantly he has a show going on at MK in July.

looking forward to seeing this show.

This is going to be a great show!

Samuel has really stepped up his work. His focus is clearer and the pieces are even stronger (not to mention larger). Immediate visceral response to the work, very energetic and dynamic while still capturing the feeling from his inspirations. Congrats. Wish I could get out to MKG for this one.

Still enjoying my Marilyn Muerte hanging in my office. Looking forward to seeing pics and a review of the show.

Here is the link to the show for those that haven't seen it yet. Samuels stuff is on the 3rd page. Last I heard, there were a few pieces left.

I really like these: (Has anyone got any idea on prices?)

The Hepburn on Wood (not pictured above - that is the canvas) was $1250. I think canvases were 4-800 more. Not sure on the big Bus canvas which is around 100"x75" (estimate).

Wait. Seriously?

Prices were up from the last show (canvases $1300-$1800). From the preview alone, it really feels like he has stepped up his game in regards to design complexity and execution. For me, the subject matter just didn't spark my interest enough to buy.

Wish I could have made it out West to see the show.

Wow. Really moving in the right direction. Nice job.

Hey Sam - any new art to share? Hope all is well.

One of our own!

Good Job Samuel, I'm proud to have watched part of your journey.

good painting,
Andrew

Good for him! Always liked his work.
