After Much Debate I Won Myself Over

I suppose it was only a matter of time before I started selling spray paint online. For now I can't quite justify offering one can at a time. For one, the shipping wouldn't be worth it and for two I would get really confused on keeping up with the inventory for in store sales as well as online. My solution: Paint Packs!


This is the first pack I have available and I think it's a good one. I love these colors and one could do a lot with this particular combination. The blue and green look awesome together as do the black and chrome. Grey and red is also pretty nice together. You can come up with a lot of options using these six colors.


For now these Paint Packs will be available in my Ebay Store. This coming week I'll try to come up with a couple of other packs.

Thanks for looking!

Lockers, Spray Paint, Good Times.

Sweet! Blake is back in town and is finishing painting the gallery lockers today. Here's what's happening so far.











I love the splatters! And the blue outline is pretty sick. Check out the entire set of photos in this flickr set and I will be posting more as the painting progresses.

New Videos, New Spray Paint And Envelope Art

For those of you not signed up on my email list here is a mass email I just sent out.



Hello All!


This might be a long message so I'll tell you the main points here and if there is something interesting to you then you can scroll on down the screen and read more about it. Here we go.

- two new videos have been uploaded to the site
- submit your art to "The Envelope Art Project"
- new shipment of art goodies



So, I'm really getting into this video thing. I'm not making anything fancy and there are no big budget summer blockbusters I'm working on, but I'm having fun making videos of artwork and product testing. One new video features some random drawings I've found hidden in drawers at my house. The other video will show you a little about the screenprinting process. Check out both videos on my site at:

The Envelope Art Project is something I started awhile ago. Basically, you draw on an envelope, mail it to me and I post it online. You don't have to claim to be an artist to do this. It's just a fun thing to do. Plus, getting snail mail always puts a smile on my face. Send your artistically enhanced envelopes to:


CLAASSEN GALLERY
1118 MORRO ST
SAN LUIS OBISPO CA 93406


Keep in mind that anything goes. Visit my Flickr page to see all the submitted envelopes that have been sent in so far.

For you art makers out there I recently received a HUGE order of Montana Spray Paint. Currently I have 59 colors of MTN Hardcore available. I also have some super cool glow in the dark spray paint along with spray adhesive and a big variety of spray paint caps for different effects. Keep in mind this paint isn't only for art applications. I now have customers that are using this paint for their custom bicycles, furniture, picture frames, etc. Before you rush to the hardware store to buy a watered down cheap paint come by the gallery and check out the plethora of amazing colors that are available.


Also, a shipment is scheduled to arrive on May 28 that will include a good selection of Sakura Solid Markers, Smash Ink, a couple of new graffiti documentary DVD's, and a few other goodies.


Thanks for reading!
