Limited Print for Star Wars Celebrations 4.

This one was a lot of work, but something I always wanted to do. I love Art Nouveau, I love the poster art of Alphonse Mucha, and my DNA has "Star Wars" written on it.

One of the MAIN reasons I did this, however, was timing. C4 was the big 30th anniversary convention for SW, and I guessed that a lotof the other invited artists would do Episode 4 prints, especially the very popular "Big Head Montage". I wanted to steer as far clear of that as possible, then.

I also came home with leftover Han Solo prints I did for C3 the year before, and I learned my lesson. I promised myself: "If this happens again, I'm gonna do chicks or stormtroopers". Slave Leia is one of the major signposts of the cultural landscape that is the affect of Star Wars on popular culture, so..... there you go.

This is one of the few pieces of mine that I have framed and hanging in my home. We got the most ostentatious Victorian-era framejob I could find, and it looks like a real antique!

Ah when I saw this on a friend's wall I fell in love. Alas it's so hard to find now. I shall keep searching, but thankyou for creating such a work of art

Hopefully blackmilk has rights to be using this on a dress? .-.

i just find this soo stunning, the attention to detail is mind boggling. i love the care you put into each piece, it really shows in all the tiny detail. i think your work sits in this perfect balance of realistic and stylised form.

I just saw that Black Milk is selling a dress with this exact piece on it

I hope you got some deal out of it... otherwise it will forever tarnish my view on BM if they stole it

Found this at my local gaming store! [link] I immediately recognized the artwork and did a little dance. I didn't know you got it officially licensed! I mean, it looked like official Lucasfilm merch. That's pretty cool.

(Or maybe you didn't, and Lucasfilm just skunked your art, and that sucks! Either way, I thought I'd let you know I saw it out in the wild!)

Blackmilk Clothing is using this as art on a dress. I didn't see you credited, so I want to make sure this is legitimate, or at least that you know about it!
