Muse - Friday, November 28th

TODAY IS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28th 2008.
WELCOME TO SHOWCASE!













Norman Rockwell, step aside. Illustrator extraordinaire DEANNA STAFFO is here. Not only did she take our favorite 1980's movie stars and turn them into a pack of trading cards [view Misfits of 80's Cinema here], but her illustrations are something so characteristically fresh that we haven't been this artistically excited since The Boy with Baby Carriage cover of The Saturday Evening Post in 1916!

Riiiiight...

Our pick is collection "Charcoal Island" in the Fine Art menu of Staffo's website. This is what Big Fish should have been. Staffo has an amazing ability to capture the personalities of all she draws with a whimsical characaturist style and a sense of humor nothing short of honest.

If you're living in NORTH AMERICA, TODAY is BUY NOTHING DAY! [except for Deanna Staffo's prints. You can buy those.]

Take your empty wallet out for a jolly jaunt and let those mothballs fly!
