Blotter paper artwork prints are a unique form of art that involves transferring ink onto specially treated blotter paper. The resulting prints are often abstract and colorful, and can be used for a variety of decorative and artistic purposes. To create a blotter paper artwork print, the artist first prepares the blotter paper by treating it with chemicals that will enhance its absorbency and ability to hold ink or dye. Then, ink or dye is applied to the paper using various techniques, such as dripping, pouring, or spraying. The paper is left to dry, and the resulting print is then carefully removed from the blotter paper. Archival printing techniques are used to produce high-quality prints of the original artwork. This involves using high-quality inks and paper that are designed to last for a long time without fading or deteriorating. Archival prints are also resistant to moisture and sunlight, which helps to preserve the artwork for years to come. Blotter paper artwork prints can be a great addition to any home or office decor, and they are often used as a unique form of wall art. They are also popular among collectors and art enthusiasts, as each print is one-of-a-kind and can never be replicated exactly.

    Ben Frost Know Your Product Blotter Paper Archival Print by Ben Frost

    Know Your Product Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Ben Frost pop culture LSD artwork. Australian contemporary artist Ben Frost is best known for his bold, irreverent Pop Art. His instantly recognizable take on pop culture twists up everyday iconography from the world’s biggest brands. Subverting meaning and messages from the mainstream media, Frost’s scything commentary on advertising, entertainment, and politics is both confronting and controversial. The essence of Frost’s commentary is established on the basis of subverting the meaning and the messages, promoted by the mainstream media. In other words and, as he has stated in the past: “The less you fill your mind with the trappings of advertising and bad television, the more space you have in your brain for things of value”. At the same time, his take on modern pop culture is equally compelling. Mainstream media, advertisements, and politics can be identified as some of his main fields of interest, which he utilizes and mixes up in a controversial formation. The word controversial is not used incidentally. What Ben Frost’s art is doing is, essentially, the appropriation and weaponization of imagery against the same system that gave birth to it.

  • Captain Cool Blotter Paper Archival Print by Stanley Mouse

    Stanley Mouse Captain Cool Blotter Paper Archival Print by Stanley Mouse

    Captain Cool Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Stanley Mouse pop culture LSD artwork. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 135 Artwork Size 7.5x7.5 "Captain Cool Blotter Paper" is a limited edition work by the renowned artist Stanley Mouse, whose contributions to pop culture and psychedelic art are well-documented. This piece, signed and numbered as part of a limited run of 135, was released in 2021 and is a prime example of archival pigment print art on perforated blotter paper, a medium with deep roots in the countercultural movements of the 1960s and 70s. The artwork, measuring 7.5x7.5 inches, portrays a hauntingly beautiful skull adorned with vibrant red roses, invoking themes of mortality and beauty reminiscent of the Mexican Day of the Dead iconography. The skull, a motif often explored in Mouse's work, is not just a symbol of death but also of life's vibrancy, contrasting the ephemeral existence with the timeless allure of art. Mouse, recognized for his role in shaping the visual language of the psychedelic movement through concert posters and album covers, brings his distinctive style to the realm of street pop art and graffiti. "Captain Cool" continues this legacy, blending classic iconography with modern techniques to produce a piece that resonates with historical significance and contemporary appeal. This artwork is not merely a decorative piece; it is steeped in the tradition of blotter art, which has often served as both a canvas for artistic expression and a medium for psychedelic compounds. The collectible nature of such prints, combined with the cultural weight they carry, makes them a significant addition to the world of street pop art and graffiti, symbolizing the crossover between underground artistry and mainstream recognition. Stanley Mouse's "Captain Cool Blotter Paper" is a testament to the enduring influence of psychedelic art in contemporary culture and its ability to comment on deeper themes through street pop art and graffiti. His work captures the essence of a genre that continues to challenge, inspire, and provoke thought through its bold visuals and subversive undertones.

    LSDetroit Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Denial pop culture LSD artwork. 2019 Signed Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 7.5x7.5 In 2000 he adopted the moniker ‘DENIAL’ as a means of poking fun at advertising, politics, and media messages that contemporary society is often ‘in denial about. Since then he has maintained an ongoing global street-campaign of over 500, 000 stickers, placards, and murals, using the alpha-numeric characters ‘D3N!@L’. Intended as a conceptual means of marketing absurdism, DENIAL also challenges traditional notions of graffiti and public art through his bold and often satirical visual subversions. Denial is a Canadian artist who experiments with aerosol and stencil art, while his main fields of interest are consumerism, politics and the human condition in today’s society. Since the culture of graffiti was gaining more and more popularity in the US and Europe, the taggers had to be increasingly original in order to stand out. The signatures became bigger, more stylized and more colorful.

  • Contra Cocaine Glitter Silkscreen Print by Robert "Robbie" Conal

    Robert "Robbie" Conal Contra Cocaine Glitter Silkscreen Print by Robert "Robbie" Conal

    Contra Cocaine Silkscreen & Glitter Print by Robert "Robbie" Conal Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2010 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Robert "Robbie" Conal's Contra Cocaine: A Landmark in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork The artwork "Contra Cocaine" by Robert "Robbie" Conal is a watershed moment in the history of street pop art and graffiti artwork. The 18x24 silkscreen print, with its haunting skull imagery set against a camouflaged backdrop, is not just a visual statement but a political cudgel wielded with artistic precision. This hand-pulled print on fine art paper, a limited edition of 100, represents Conal's unapologetic foray into street art, a domain he has since come to dominate. Educated at Stanford and a master painter, Robbie Conal is known for his unflinching, intensely detailed portraits, often depicting political figures in grotesque forms. His highly political and active work provides a scathing commentary on political corruption and misconduct. "Contra Cocaine" is perhaps his most notorious piece, a symbolic representation of the Iran/Contra scandal that plagued the Reagan administration. Its original iteration in 1988 has the distinction of being a part of the permanent collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), underscoring its cultural and historical significance. Contra Cocaine: The Intersection of Art and Political Activism Conal's "Contra Cocaine" transcends mere artistic endeavor; it encapsulates the artist's commitment to confronting and exposing the dark underbelly of political power structures. The piece is a grim commentary on the Iran/Contra affair, with the skull serving as a macabre symbol of the deadly consequences of political gamesmanship. Using street art's stark, compelling visual language, Conal's work becomes accessible and engaging, drawing the public into a conversation about the often invisible mechanisms of government wrongdoing. The distribution of "Contra Cocaine" through street posters in cities across the United States marked Conal's initial exploration into street art. This guerrilla postering, a form of grassroots activism, was designed to provoke public discourse and bring political commentary out of the galleries and into the streets. The image became synonymous with a generation's disillusionment and rage, channeling the spirit of protest into a singularly impactful piece of art. Legacy and Influence of Robbie Conal in Street Art Robbie Conal's influence on street pop art and graffiti artwork is profound. His commitment to marrying art with activism has inspired countless artists to view the urban landscape as a platform for social commentary and change. Plastering "Contra Cocaine" posters around the country was not just an artistic statement but a call to arms, engaging a volunteer "army" of supporters to disseminate the powerful image far and wide. Conal's method of engagement—activating a network of volunteers to distribute his posters—echoes the collective nature of street art, wherein the community plays a crucial role in the dissemination and reception of the work. The "army" that Conal mobilizes speaks to the collaborative spirit of the street art movement, blurring the lines between artist and audience, between individual creation and collective experience. Contra Cocaine: A Statement of Artistic and Historical Importance The historical context of "Contra Cocaine" amplifies its importance in the annals of street art. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "The Missing Link" at Country Club in 2010, the print also belongs to the Beautiful Losers Archive and Iconoclast Editions, collections that honor the works of artists who have shaped the landscape of contemporary art outside traditional systems. "Contra Cocaine" not only cements Robbie Conal's place in street art history but also stands as a testament to the power of visual art as a means of political resistance and societal reflection. As a piece of street pop art and graffiti artwork, it represents the genre's potential to influence public opinion and spark dialogues that transcend the visual medium, entering the realm of collective memory and historical documentation. The continued relevance of "Contra Cocaine" lies in its unabashed confrontation with political corruption and how art can expose and critique those in power. Through this work and his broader artistic oeuvre, Robbie Conal demonstrates the enduring role of the artist as a provocateur and a social commentator, wielding brushes and silkscreens as others might wield pens or protest signs. His legacy in street art is defined by his distinctive visual style and his unwavering commitment to activism through art.

"The Babysitter on Acid was started almost 8 years ago and I only work on it when I feel like a passenger on the bike, or I have witnessed some weird people in the woods while mountain biking. It was the first painting started after my last solo show where the character on the front of the bike "Stinkeyes" finally got paid with magic money and a dollar bill falls out of his envelope on the frantic way to the bank and subsequently ends up growing into a money tree...still writing the storyline. Anyways. "Stinkeyes" is a partier and is friends with the equally fried babysitter and that's how he got her to give him a lift...This sounds strange now that I'm writing it out, my whole last show was started after I took mushrooms and went to Disney World on New Year's Eve and Jiminy Cricket's narration of the fireworks rewired my mind and artistic path. I'm not receiving that anymore, but it was a long-lasting trip for me..." - Matt Gordon

Skeletons & Skulls Graffiti Street Pop Art

Symbolism of Skeletons and Skulls in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Skeletons and skulls have been a prominent motif in art for centuries, embodying themes of mortality, impermanence, and the human condition. In Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, these symbols have been recontextualized, taking on new meanings and forms. Street artists utilize skeletons and skulls to communicate messages from the political to the personal, often infusing these macabre icons with vibrant colors and bold patterns that challenge their traditional associations with death and darkness. In the urban tapestry of cities worldwide, skeletons and skulls are not just symbols of fear and decay but are reimagined as expressions of life's vitality and the celebration of existence despite its fleeting nature. Graffiti artworks featuring these elements become public meditations on life's cyclical nature, reminding viewers of their mortality in a confronting and enlightening manner. The stark depiction of a skull in a mural or a sticker can be a social commentary on issues such as war, inequality, or the brevity of human life amidst the chaos of the modern world.

Artistic Exploration of Existential Themes Through Bones and Craniums

The artistic exploration of existential themes through the imagery of bones and skulls in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork has led to diverse interpretations. Some artists may portray skulls with a sense of humor or irony, subverting their traditionally ominous weight. Others may revere them, creating shrines out of alleyways and building facades. This duality reflects the multifaceted nature of skeletons and skulls as symbols — they are at once a universal sign of humanity's shared destiny and a canvas for exploring individual and collective narratives. The ubiquitous nature of these symbols in street art speaks to their enduring power to fascinate and provoke. Every skull or skeleton rendered on a wall represents a common thread in the tapestry of human experience, connecting us across cultures and time. The depiction of these symbols in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork serves as a reminder of the democratizing power of art and its ability to distill complex ideas into potent, universal images.
In conclusion, the representation of skeletons and skulls in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork is a testament to the enduring fascination with what lies beneath the surface of living beings. These depictions are a bold confrontation with the ultimate truths of existence, rendered in styles that range from the realistic to the abstract. Through these powerful symbols, street artists continue to engage with profound themes, inviting onlookers to reflect on the mysteries of life and death amidst the everyday landscapes of the urban environment.
