PATRIOT new screen print release GIVEAWAY!!!, by Armando Chainsawhands on Jun 27, 2017 7:13:58 GMT 1, Like many others in the USA and abroad, I was surprised and disappointed with the election in November. It has been difficult remaining upbeat and positive and fight the good fight in the face of such blatant greed, dishonesty, racism, hypocrisy, intolerance for diversity, disregard for the health of the public and the environment, and nurtured divisiveness. The only option other than becoming overwhelmed and giving in is to continue to fight hate wherever it sprouts and join others in doing what we can to make a small difference wherever possible.
In honor of this and all the information, support, and feedback I've had on UAA, I would like to do a giveaway (even though I am USA based). The winner will receive the PATRIOTIC STARTER PACK, which includes a signed/numbered print of my upcoming release PATRIOT, along with some I Want to Believe pasters on Mr French Parchtone Relic Gold paper, a signed/numbered American Flag AP print, and a whole slew of stickers, including the most recent stars and stripes ski mask sticker.
For my latest print, I wanted to capture the quick and dirty energy of rebellion, using taped reverse stencils and spray paint to create test sprays that I scanned into Photoshop to create the layers for the 18" x 24" two color, full bleed screen print, meant to evoke a flag in distress. The print itself will release on Thursday, June 29 at noon CDT (5 pm GMT if I calculated that right!) at www.armandochainsawhands.com/patriot-1.html. A handful of unique hand painted multiples on 300 gsm Arches 88 deckle edge paper and 250 gsm Stonehenge black deckle paper will release at the same time under the Originals section.
Finally, some quotes that have really been resonating with me lately:
โAwake, arise or be for ever fallโn.โ -John Milton, Paradise Lost
โWhen one with honeyed words but evil mind persuades the mob, great woes befall the state.โ -Euripides, Orestes
โPower-lust is a weed that grows only in the vacant lots of an abandoned mind.โ -Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
โThe distrust of wit is the beginning of tyranny.โ -Edward Abbey
โIn every age it has been the tyrant, the oppressor and the exploiter who has wrapped himself in the cloak of patriotism, or religion, or both to deceive and overawe the People.โ -Eugene V. Debs, Voices of a People's History of the United States (Canton, OH, Anti-War Speech, June 16, 1918)
โEvery act of rebellion expresses a nostalgia for innocence and an appeal to the essence of being.โ -Albert Camus, The Rebel: An Essay on Man in Revolt
โJust because something bears the aspect of the inevitable one should not, therefore, go along willingly with it.โ -Philip K. Dick, The Transmigration of Timothy Archer
โThe greatest purveyor of violence in the world: My own Government, I can not be Silent.โ -Martin Luther King Jr.
โI hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.โ -Thomas Jefferson
TL,DR
The giveaway starts now and is eligible to any UAA member who has joined at least a month ago. I'm also doing the same giveaway on Expressobeans, so please only enter once. Pick a number between 1 and 241 and post here, keep a list/order by quoting and copying the previous quote/list and adding your number. Price is Right rules apply- closest to the winning number without going over wins the prize! Deadline for entries is Wednesday, June 28 at noon CDT (5 pm GMT), at which time I will use a random number generator to pick the winner. Thanks and good luck!

Also, here are some pics of the finished product, the blue looks almost black in some of the closeup pics but I think the prints turned out great!

Sorry, dani, nothing personal but if the deadline was strict your post arrived too late, if it was flexible I have nothing to say.

No offense taken, although I believe I posted around 12:30pm EDT (which would be 11:30am CDT). I may be wrong but it was after 7:00 pm CEST (Central European Summer Time). Anyway, as for me there is no problem, if Armando wants can check the posting time more precisely than you or me.
Cheers
