I’ve been working on some paintings that deal with coveted objects and conspicuous luxury. I’m also, aesthetically, getting interested in neo-mysticism. So there you go. I’m not sure where this is going yet in the “bigger picture” sense, but here are 2 small pieces I finished this week.
I’ve donated a new painting to Stoked Sessions, an action sports mentoring program. There are some great artists involved in the show (Clayton Brothers and Richard Colman to name two). The theme of the show is “Predictions”…and my prediction involves the kingpins of the Bush administration getting their due at The Hague.
The public showing is Saturday, June 5th from Noon – 8pm, during the Culver City Artwalk. Address: 8870 Washington Blvd, Culver City, CA 90232. There is a VIP showing on Friday before the show.
NOW SHIPPING! I’ve just finished signing and numbering the first two editions of “Everything You Never Needed,” my new serigraph print. There will be a second release of two new colors in about a month, so when these sell out, keep an eye out for the next colors. These will not be reprinted and have been run in a very limited edition of only 30 pieces per color, so don’t sleep on this one. Go HERE to get yours now. As with all my prints, these have been hand screened on super silky, 100% cotton, acid-free, heavy-weight paper.
Just picked up the new prints and holy crap! They look amazing! Got some numbering and signing to do…
Pre-order now HERE to guarantee shipping next week!
My friend Andy Jenkins posted a link to this video from theboardmen and I had to repost it. This is really cool and I especially like the sound effects. Good job Tilles. When I have designed skate ads in the past with long sequences, I often wondered how you could put them together in an interesting way to animate them, but this ideas is just really wonderful…Hooray for analog creativity!!

Here’s a sneak peak at a new serigraph poster I’ll be releasing shorty…
It’s a new version of a painting I did a few years back, updated and simplified for screen print reproduction. Add your name to the pre-order list to be notified when it is released.
A while back I interviewed artist Lisa Solberg for the North American launch of Australian magazine, Monster Children. Now that the issue has been released, I’m posting the full interview here. Enjoy.
LISA SOLBERG
26 year-old Los Angeles-based painter Lisa Solberg is someone whose career we’ve been watching for a while, but whose work has recently jumped to a new level of sophistication. We catch up with Solberg in her downtown loft to take a closer look:
The 2nd edition “Business/Personal” prints are at the printer now. I’m picking them up on Monday, and after they are signed and numbered, they will be ready to ship out on Tuesday the 16th! Artist Proof versions with hand-painted phrases on the prints will be coming soon after, so keep an eye out. For the time though, monochrome and 2-color prints are available HERE.
