Argonaut Resins Halloween Tuttz Resin Figures by Robbie Busch

To coincide with Argonaut Resins’ 2nd Anniversary, END has reteamed with Robbie Busch to produce a three figure set of custom Halloween themed Tuttz resin figures. Robbie did an amazing paint job on these figures, giving them a truly Halloween inspired look. The Blot especially love the skulls he added to their collars.

Best of all, each hand painted Halloween Tuttz comes with a mini original gouache acrylic canvass with Robbie's take on the Tuttz cat, a clear tint Skull (from the Argonaut Resins x Robbie Busch El Diablo resin releases) and a custom hand painted box!

The three Robbie Busch x Argonaut Resins Halloween Tuttz resin figures are scheduled to go on sale this Sunday, October 31st, so keep your eyes peeled on the Argonaut Resins online store this Halloween!

Bad Dads: An Art Show Tribute to the Films of Wes Anderson

This Saturday is opening night of a very special movie themed art show The Blot is very excited about. “Bad Dads: An Art Show Tribute to Wes Anderson,” presented by Spoke Art, is a group show culling from some of Wes Anderson's most memorable and loved scenes, characters, concepts and themes, realized by some of the new contemporary art scene's quickest rising and established stars. In addition to catchy soundtracks, sharp dialogue and effortless cinematography, one of the main underlying themes to many of the iconic and cult-status films of Wes Anderson is the incorporation of characters with family issues, notably father issues…hence the show’s name, “Bad Dads.”

Spoke Art’s “Bad Dads” group art show opens Saturday, October 30th, from 8pm to midnight at LoPo Gallery, San Francisco’s newest art space. The show will be on display till Saturday, November 27th and is free and open to the public. Check out some of the amazing art debuting at the show, including this The Blot Says… exclusive first look at Gene Guynn's amazing Fantastic Mr. Fox piece below:

In keeping with Spoke Art's vision of making art both accessible and affordable, many of the works from the show have been produced into limited edition fine art prints.
