The Baroness called me and asked if I had an interest in exploring the idea of doing a book with custom toy artist Huck Gee. For years I have collected Kidrobot Dunnys so I have been a fan of Huck's work for years. A call, an e-mail, some jpegs and we were hooked on the idea.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0OIff_3UdA61BDZbnM4yMV9tzMWTQfVddkpCKP1dpAvprR0FMUO-oe4OMrenJIWqoIXwKIXMWnqLcGx8hc5Hz9oCvFza65ehRhl0Zj1r8dAApeZs2Pz9tdthO-kWMMsGFdhoek3Q5zAW7/s1600/blog30-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0OIff_3UdA61BDZbnM4yMV9tzMWTQfVddkpCKP1dpAvprR0FMUO-oe4OMrenJIWqoIXwKIXMWnqLcGx8hc5Hz9oCvFza65ehRhl0Zj1r8dAApeZs2Pz9tdthO-kWMMsGFdhoek3Q5zAW7/s400/blog30-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div> This was one of those projects where ideas burned in my head for layouts and I couldn't wait to produce a volume of Huck's art. A year later and many untold hours and bang. We present The Art of Huck Gee!<br />
We have packed this hard cover edition with 150 pages of Huck's greatest creations. His limited edition customs, production pieces, production art, prints, collaborations, projects that were scrapped, and every single thing in between.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKyoxR1Q9z3DOA3thRf_Ge1rUIsbDxoBLOncWPm_S1VfFpvv3r1Kytgy17C49ecGeRYgiK1ICFyXq-8yFEbxSFVfKlyzeCdjvqZbBXP-IXcbeM9uBR0DAK-qS8t99w-Cw5RJMdDJFNWu6J/s1600/blog30-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKyoxR1Q9z3DOA3thRf_Ge1rUIsbDxoBLOncWPm_S1VfFpvv3r1Kytgy17C49ecGeRYgiK1ICFyXq-8yFEbxSFVfKlyzeCdjvqZbBXP-IXcbeM9uBR0DAK-qS8t99w-Cw5RJMdDJFNWu6J/s400/blog30-3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>The forward of the book is written by Kidrobot founder Paul Budnitz, who refers to Huck as "...the greatest toy customizer on the planet....". Now if that isn't a ringing endorsement I don't what is. Huck is one of the founders of this custom art toy movement. His work has been shown and is collected the world over, it even resides in the permanent collection of the MOMA. The book was a blast to design and the art is refreshing and important. This is one of the most interesting titles we have published to date and it was wonderful to work with such a talented guy.<br />

We have spent the fall knee deep in book projects from toy artist Huck Gee and poster / hot-rod / pop artist Jeral Tidwell, as well as many new projects for 2012. It can sometimes be a challenge to both work on books and report on the progress here on the blog, but we will make a run at doing a better blog job in 2012. We do promise that 2012 is going to be packed with amazing titles from Presto Art. That is also guaranteed by our mascot Quincy the wonder dog.

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Greg also did a great interview over at LOP Radio, where they talked about everything from Greg's book with Presto Art, to the toys he has designed and his thought process. It's great to see artists getting interviewed and online press.

Presto Art's "Three Sixty Five" by Martin LaCasse was recognized with an Editorial Merit from HOW magazine. HOW is a magazine for designers and graphic professionals that features the best and brightest in everything from advertising to video game design. It also feels good because the work judged was from all over the world. So thanks to HOW and thanks to everyone who bought the book.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzZ5VLHLlIek55RsYV9HOtxUryfKXlQyO1Lf5UBKUO3rI03dXyyUxJJEPrvxM6za3MkJhfBuwlxeFhpr2Y4N-BVFrUq5qNJ-CjWytdynsNRhn8LauzW9XdgxoG07nVp-DXKyAzc446hpYc/s1600/blog27-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzZ5VLHLlIek55RsYV9HOtxUryfKXlQyO1Lf5UBKUO3rI03dXyyUxJJEPrvxM6za3MkJhfBuwlxeFhpr2Y4N-BVFrUq5qNJ-CjWytdynsNRhn8LauzW9XdgxoG07nVp-DXKyAzc446hpYc/s400/blog27-2.jpg" width="280" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

The Art of Dave Fox - Available Now<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/QncHs1t43HA" title="YouTube video player" width="640"></iframe><br />
Dave Fox's new book has hit the warehouse...and filled it up. Dave's new book is by far the most color packed book we have ever seen. I wonder if the print house thought they were going to use so much ink. I am talking about a serious saturation and a varnish flood to hold it all together. I think it's fair to say the book is over stimulating to say the least. When was the last time a book printed on paper made that claim? We are psyched with the final product and know that fan's of Dave are going to be thrilled and non-fans will become fast subscribers to the unique stylings. Available now from <a href="http://www.prestoart.com/product.php?productid=16161&cat=249&page=1">Presto Art -A Novel Idea? The Art of Dave Fox.</a><br />

Artist Greg Simkins was the host of an amazing event on Friday that packed in over 100 of the countries best artists working today. The theme was the black rabbit of INLE, a character from Richard Adams book "Watership Down", and a theme that Greg has mined in much of his art. Good stuff check it.Prestohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09788767766263175966noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4865339136234710639.post-26399892985956356142010-11-25T08:55:00.004-05:002010-11-25T09:00:04.968-05:00Drawn From The Well - The FilmThis Thanksgiving allow me to be thankful for my Family, my Friends and for the bad ass mini film that <a href="http://www.stephenreedy.com/">Stephen Reedy</a> made for <a href="http://www.imscared.com/">Greg Craola Simkin's</a> book "Drawn From the Well". Stephen is the guy behind all those great Zero Friends commercials, his stuff is very cool and you can check it all out on his <a href="http://www.stephenreedy.com/">reel</a>. Both Greg and I are super psyched to have a mini film / commercial for the book. Take a look and pass it on to those you know. Enjoy.<br />

The book weighs in at two hundred and twenty five pages, packed into a huge 9" x 12" hardcover deluxe format. The art is a full color, end to end blow out with Dave's entire cast of unusual characters on parade through every inch of it. We are anticipating a street date of January 2011 and that will become more clear as we move through the final steps of the printing process. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This book has been a lot of fun to put together and if you are a fan of Dave's art you will be psyched with the final product. Dave painted 25 new paintings in the last six weeks that all made the book, and the story behind the title is also a very cool one. This book will be the first Presto book to feature 6 fold out setups, so we could showcase some of Dave's art in an awesome 12" x 18" format. We will keep you in the loop....</div><br />

The award was presented to us by the Independent Publishers Assoc. and we couldn't be more shocked and excited. We poured a lot of work into the project and to garner an award like this was just humbling. Furthermore we were shocked to find out that we actually got gold metals!! It is pretty awesome. We also got some of these great award winning stickers for the books, so thanks to the Indepent Publishers Awards and to everyone who has picked up the title, we hope you have been enjoying it. Now where do Martin and I go to have our photos taken for the Wheaties box?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

For the last couple years Martin LaCasse's "Take What You Can...Give Nothing Back", has been out of print. Over the last couple months however we have been deluged with requests to bring it back. With the release of Martin's "365" there has been a ton of interest in his first book, so we have decided to bring it back. The new printing will have a soft cover and a nice new price ($30 US).<br />
The new re-issue has a street date of August 1. If you have the original hardcover, it's a collectors item now, so shelf it and pick up the new soft cover. If you don't own this book your library of reference is incomplete, this is one of the best selling tattoo books of the 00's. Thanks for demanding we bring it back, it's one of our favorites too.<br />
