Freeze frame, my poster collection, part 7…

The posters featured today are a cross sampling of my interests, and shows, and events that I enjoyed in the past. It should go without saying that I’m a big fan of Bruce Lee, and his films. One of the prints that I absolutely fell in love with was by artist Justin Orr. I had to support the artist at the Wondercon in Anaheim.

Some of the prints in my collection I just picked up somewhere along the way. This old map of Los Angeles is a great reference. I should straighten out the folds, and get it framed.

One of the oddest posters in my collection actually belongs to my little brother. A lifetime ago there was a hilarious Nike ad featuring Godzilla battling against Charles Barkley. Trust me anything seemed to go with the old Nike commercials. We were at the mall one day and found a poster celebrating the collaboration. So my little brother got it, and I’ve been keeping it safe ever since.

The Hot Sauce poster was one that I created, and my friend that used to work at Kinkos got printed for me. I took it to a Mix Tape Tour game, and got the players to autograph it. Hot Sauce loved it, and asked to use my art on a couple of his own tours.

I should throw out the Eyvind Earle poster but I’m holding onto it because it reminds me of a trip that my family took to a special gallery event.

I believe that if you have the means you should support artists of all types. The art of Gary Montalbano really vibes with me. I had the pleasure of getting a poster autographed by the man at a San Diego Comic Con many years ago.

The giant robot project MORAV was one of those that had so much potential. It was going to be a live action series featuring animatronic robots. One of the designers / actors for the show was Grant Imahara of Mythbusters / Battlebots fame. Sadly Grant passed away suddenly, leaving us with memories of something that could have been truly exceptional.

Were there any gallery events, or independent artists that you really enjoy? I’d like to read about it in the comments section.
