Can you add some products that have that first hockey pose? I'd love postcards, maybe a calendar or something like that. I might even go for a t-shirt so I can wear Josh when I go to my own games.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09471148605362235663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16774394.post-83201846292378746962009-02-11T06:26:00.000-05:002009-02-11T06:26:00.000-05:00Javier - Glen Hanson is definitely someone I look ...Javier - Glen Hanson is definitely someone I look to for much inspiration. His linework and his men are so beautiful. Some of my early beefcake drawings had Glen Hanson-ish faces. I'm glad I've found my own lines and methods...but I certainly owe an awful lot to Glen.<BR/><BR/>It's possible Rick Castro only has my prints available in his gallery store. I'll send him an e-mail and find out how my prints might be made available. <BR/><BR/>A flat Negative Man? Very good solution. I was just going to make a regular stuffed doll. I could make the costumed version with a hollow head...where one could store the flat negative man rolled up. That would be cool! <BR/><BR/>Thanks, Javier.<BR/><BR/>Johang - Thanks. I am, indeed, a very lucky man.<BR/><BR/>best,<BR/>j.j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03991012599188396707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16774394.post-58254512784598363752009-02-11T05:14:00.000-05:002009-02-11T05:14:00.000-05:00Wow!

I think ...Ah the Petty Girls and their point shoes. I think its the elegance combined with the accessibility that I like about the images. As idealized as the girls are, they still seem approachable, unlike say some of Glen Hanson's (another artist I like) trademark style.<BR/><BR/>Went to the Rick Castro site. They don't have your silk screens listed in the Art for Sale section. Shouldn't they? I mean if they are actually trying to sell them. :) Perhaps he is hording.<BR/><BR/>Oh and couldn't the Negative Man doll be a flat doll inside another doll? Since Negative Man is two dimensional he could just slide out the side?<BR/><BR/>Like a crochet sandwich.Javierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04444466526877320363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16774394.post-8881878971182412322009-02-10T10:39:00.000-05:002009-02-10T10:39:00.000-05:00Andy - Thanks.

I've actually got some available at Antebellum Gallery in Los Angeles<BR/>http://www.rickcastro.com/antebellum/antebellum2.html<BR/>Rick Castro is the guy to ask.<BR/><BR/>My reason for going with online companies is that I'm lazy. Having prints made up and then mailing them out myself is a lot of work! I'd much rather be drawing nearly naked men than licking envelopes :)<BR/><BR/>But I will look into it. And maybe put Josh to work...he could be my model/art assistant! <BR/><BR/>Bare buns are not against my code, surprisingly. I like to reveal a little cheek now and then. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for some great input, Andy.<BR/><BR/>best,<BR/>j.j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03991012599188396707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16774394.post-49549709667562306122009-02-10T09:09:00.000-05:002009-02-10T09:09:00.000-05:00This is a great pose and VERY sexy!I lust love how...This is a great pose and VERY sexy!<BR/>I lust love how that underarm and side torso muscles are put together!! If this is the first in a series: I can't wait!! BTW are bare buns against your code? I think it's innocent enough and still (dare I say) "cheeky"!?<BR/><BR/>Although the Cafe Press merch is great, I would LOVE to see this or some other future favorite of yours become a SILK SCREEN print! I know it's a lot of work, but even a simple GOCCO print I'd treasure! Just a thought for the future.<BR/><BR/>Is there any way you could offer a limited number of something that you sign? It may not be possible for you now, but again... just throwing that out there. ;)<BR/><BR/>Thanks to you and Josh for the great work!! :)Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17798282010252178824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16774394.post-24370747703425195712009-02-10T07:43:00.000-05:002009-02-10T07:43:00.000-05:00Javier - Vargas girls also had an elegance to them...Javier - Vargas girls also had an elegance to them that I love. I'm actually much more of a Petty fan. His girls were just plain fun! Even if their back was turned they'd be looking over their shoulder at you...with a wink and a smile.<BR/><BR/>I added a few more items to the CafePress shop...including a throw pillow. I'll have to design a few drawings for specific things. I badly want a wall clock! The Vargas shot just isn't the right shape. <BR/><BR/>Being quite environmentally minded I've included a cloth tote back. I think everyone should be taking their own bags when out shopping.<BR/><BR/>AS for Larry Trainor! I know. I just haven't had a chance. He's really TWO dolls. I've got to make an all black negative man! <BR/><BR/>best,<BR/>j.j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03991012599188396707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16774394.post-91661363475493882252009-02-10T02:26:00.000-05:002009-02-10T02:26:00.000-05:00Always loved Vargas girls.

They also had an fun accessibility, something that many of the Bone Boys have.<BR/><BR/>As far as my recent absence, I've been checking in regularly, just been super duper busy. So since I would have had nothing brilliant to add, I have let others speak.<BR/><BR/>But...<BR/><BR/>I agree this is the best of Josh. As far as Cafe Press, I would say... throw pillow, throw pillow. Although I do think the little magnet is also good. As cute as the pic is, it just doesn't scream t-shirt to me. Coaster perhaps. Mousepad maybe.<BR/><BR/>He just seems as if he would be happier in a homey setting.<BR/><BR/>AND....<BR/><BR/>I know its another blog, but how can you have Rita and Cliff and NO LARRY TRAINOR !?! They miss him :(. <BR/><BR/>Its not like you have to crochet a wheelchair for the Chief.Javierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04444466526877320363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16774394.post-27681734599069731262009-02-09T19:24:00.000-05:002009-02-09T19:24:00.000-05:00Um, yeah I got a pouch but i lost the string part....Um, yeah I got a pouch but i lost the string part.
