The fourth in an ongoing series of Who Needs Groceries Alerts, where PopDrawer alerts you to wonderful stuff you can buy to clutter your home and lighten your wallet.
Today’s must-buy item is a gorgeous new mounted, varnished and framed giclee on canvas by Pressure Printing, hand-signed by artist Amy Crehore. The print, titled “Banana Eater” (and seen above) is a terrific example of Ms. Crehore’s lovely island-inspired, wildlife-filled canvases. For everyone who finds much of the work categorized as Pop Surrealism as slightly morbid, but loves the vivid colors and pop aesthetic, Ms. Crehore is your salvation. Her paintings are generally slightly surreal portraits of beautiful women in idyllic surroundings, with a touch of whimsy or quirkiness lurking in the background. Don’t get me wrong, some are delightfully creepy, and PopDrawer loves those, too. The Pressure Printing edition, assuredly done with their typical detail, is a small edition of 40 for $750.00 each. (and don’t miss Ms. Crehore’s awesome blog “Little Hokum Rag.”
Ms. Crehore also has a great new t-shirt available on her website for a mere $27 (plus s&h)
While you’re checking out the Pressure Printing sight, you may also be interested in the new print by PopDrawer fave Glenn Barr. But more about that another time.
