Melbourne graffiti collective Everfresh are releasing a lavishly illustrated book of their works this September.
Titled ‘Everfresh: Blackbook’, there’ll be a hardback limited edition of 500 signed by all studio artists, a hand finished cover, 1 of 500 Everfresh screen print, and 1 photographic print signed & numbered by Josh Robenstone.
At $80AU (roughly $70US), it’s an absolute bargain and I really don’t expect them to last long, so get it quick if you want it. Grab it here through their online store.
The regular soft back is cheaper at $39.99AU ($35US), and though not available from them directly, the ISBN is 978-0-522-85745-0 so you should be able to order if from your local bookshop.
When I lived in Melbourne, I loved wandering the streets looking at the fantastic selection of urban graffiti work, but Everfresh’s work always stood out in my mind. The vampire image (stencil above) was dotted all around Richmond where I lived and I still love it. If you enjoy finely crafted graffiti work, this book is a must for your collection.
Chet Zar; painter, sculptor, make-up FX guru, posted a great insight to his process for creating mouldings for frames last week for #FridayNightArtDorks on his Twitter page – @chetzar. They’ll adorn the frames in next months solo show at Last Rites gallery in NY.
We’ve finally posted up the last issue of Dangerous Ink to the site, and you can view it by clicking here. If you wanted a real copy of the issue, some are still available through our online shop and are now all half price!
If you enjoy the issue, please leave a comment. It’s always a buzz to know that people enjoyed what we did, and you never know, one day Dangerous Ink Magazine might come back.
Hello! This is my fist post EVER!
I have my own site and stuff, but it is a bit unloved of late – my own fault.
I’m taking this first post as an opportunity to blow my own trumpet. Here is the frist panel of one of two strips that I completed last month and will be published in the anthology Underground Overkill, and may also get an airing on online comic sites (I’m still not sure about this bit!).
Hope you like it.
More to follow.
Chet Zar, dark artist, sculptor, and movie make-up effect artist extrordinaire (well he does design for Guillermo Del Toro), has just updated his website to include lots more goodies for everyone to look at.
He says “Aside from the cool new design, there is a film section (to see some samples of my film work) and a new web store. Check it out at www.chetzar.com“. You can also keep up-to-date on what he’s up to by following him on Twitter – @chetzar.
Some of my favourite images are from his movie work, especially Liam Neeson’s make-up from ‘Darkman’, and more tenderly, a prosthetic baby for TV show ‘ER’. Absolutely stunning.
