Design Spotlight: Shepard Fairey + Obey Giant

At some point today, this limited edition screen print of Debbie Harry will be available to the public here.





















Original photo by Bobby Grossman. 450 prints will be available at $70 apiece and I'll fight you for one. She is oh-so-beautiful! And so is the impactful style of Shepard Fairey. You must know him for his power-packed Obama Campaign poster designs. Did you know his is also the creator of the OBEY GIANT tagging movement? What started as a social experiment is now a cult following. He is a modern-day design legend. This is not the last you will hear of Shepard Fairey on this blog; I do adore him.

  1. I love looking at prints like this but then I get mad since I don't really have a disposable income- I just want too much art!
    Awesome print though-I really do love it.

  2. I completely agree, his work is awesome and this print really is amazing.

    Also thanks so much for your comment on my blog. I appreciate it. I'm glad you left it because It led me here to your site and you both have amazing work, I mean it. (I'm looking at both your sites as we speak). :)
