grant gilliland + andy stattmiller

Grant Gilliland and Andy Stattmiller are two of the numerous emerging artists we have met and worked with since opening our shop in the Mission. Close buddies and co-graduates of the Columbus College of Art and Design, these guys independently made their way to San Francisco to pursue art. They first showed up at fabric8 together, to present their first self-published book of black-and-white illustrations.

Since then, we've worked with them individually and have had the pleasure of showing and selling many of their pieces. They each have a great sense of color, but most often collaborate and show their black-and-whites.

Below are five pieces (the top two from Grant Gilliland and the bottom three from Andy Stattmiller) they created during our (1)3-Year Anniversary Party. About 5in. x 5in. in size, they're priced at US$ 60 each. Email us for more info.

dyno

Dyno's latest creation mixes collage and painting for a fun intertwinement that's both figurative and literal. Measuring 8in. x 8in., these mingling dinosaurs can be yours for US$ 90.

andre karpov

We finally met Andre Karpov, the man behind the murals at Pizzeria Delfina (18th near Guerrero) and Range (Cunningham off Valencia btwn 19th and 20th), who brought by this print of a new watercolor painting of his, titled "She Grew On Me".

Andre has been painting for many years and began his tutelage under a Japanese tea master at the age of 14. He is currently working on an entire body of work so we look forward to seeing more from him.

Meanwhile this print of "She Grew On Me", sized at 19in. x 11in., and another can be yours for only US$ 40.
