Ellen Forney, transit artist
Written by Mike Baehr | Filed under Ellen Forney 19 Mar 2008 9:57 PM

Seattle residents can look forward to some public art by Ellen Forney. Sez Ellen: 

I'll be doing the public art for the Sound Transit tunnel from the west entrance by SCCC under Broadway, to the station. Yay! I'm not sure what art I'm going to do yet (Big Fuckin' Hands or naked ladies might not pass through the committee processes) but I'll come up with something with my signature feel-good flair. (Here is a "sample of my public work," courtesy of Photoshop.)

There's now a Flickr pool of art that was submitted to the Open Call page for BEASTS! Book Two (due out later this year). So far about 75 people have added their piece to the page. Above is Daniel Goffin's creature.

While you're at Flickr...

I also just posted sneak peek scans of the printed Dash Shaw book covers (white and black on Kraft always looks good). On my page here.

Then check out how awesome Steven Weissman's work looks when done with Zip-a-tone!

Show and Tell, Pt. 6
Written by Eric Reynolds | Filed under miscellany 18 Mar 2008 8:48 AM
More crap that'll fit on the scanner... 
 
A pencil rough from a panel of Charles Burns' Black Hole, including a mysterious clue from Charles ("Who's this guy?"):
 
 
This illustration is the cover art to Joe Coleman's Man of Sorrows book from Gates of Heck. This is a great book, BTW, which basically is an explication of one of Coleman's most famous paintings, with die cut details from the painting tipped into each page with extensive commentary on each by Coleman. 

 
A spot illustration by Archer Prewitt. I have no idea what this was for, but it's pretty: 
 
 
Super cool Chris Ware poster art for a Sea & Cake show (featuring the aforementioned Archer Prewitt):
 
  
 
A lovely little Jim Woodring "Pupshaw" painting. This one's going in my soon-to-arrive baby girl's room:
