PATRIOT screen print and HPM release, by Armando Chainsawhands on Jun 29, 2017 17:10:01 GMT 1,

For my latest print, I wanted to capture the quick and dirty energy of rebellion, using taped reverse stencils and spray paint to create test sprays that I scanned into Photoshop to create the layers for this two color, full bleed screen print on 100 lb white Cougar stock, meant to evoke a flag in distress.

The print will go on sale for $40 today at noon CDT (5pm GMT) at www.armandochainsawhands.com/patriot-1.html





I also made a handful of unique hand painted multiples on 300 gsm Arches 88 white deckle edged paper and 250 gsm Stonehenge black deckle edged paper, these will go on sale at the same time at www.armandochainsawhands.com/patriot-hpm.html





Finally, I'd like to include a few quotes that have really resonated with me lately:

“Awake, arise or be for ever fall’n.”
-John Milton, Paradise Lost

“When one with honeyed words but evil mind persuades the mob, great woes befall the state.”
-Euripides, Orestes

“In every age it has been the tyrant, the oppressor and the exploiter who has wrapped himself in the cloak of patriotism, or religion, or both to deceive and overawe the People.”
-Eugene V. Debs, Voices of a People's History of the United States (Canton, OH, Anti-War Speech, June 16, 1918)

“Just because something bears the aspect of the inevitable one should not, therefore, go along willingly with it.”
-Philip K. Dick, The Transmigration of Timothy Archer

“I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.”
-Thomas Jefferson

Thanks for your support!
