I wish "Wind Chases the Sun" Leonard Peltier print would sell out or be removed.
Sick of looking at it when trying to buy the latest release. Which never happens anyway..

Love the message, just not wild about the print. TV is definately the opium of the masses!!

not for me , it's a bit rubbish really isn't it
The “Sedation Of Millions” print is inspired by the title of my favorite Public Enemy album “It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back”. I think the biggest problem in America is the indifference and complacency about important issues that results from much of the population being perpetually hypnotized by conspicuous consumption, social media, entertainment, and self-medication. Using sedation and escapism for relief from the rat race might make us less aware(blissfully ignorant) but also less empowered to improve our role within the rat race… a vicious cycle of cause and effect.

i think he is bought and paid for! just my opinion if you like him cool! I choose to buy Renee Gagnon, that dude needs more exposure! Edit: fortgot to mention Renee has given me just as many free prints as I have paid for! Just last week his site charged me shipping was supposed to be free. Renee sends me an email man, sorry gonna throw in some free shirts and and what ever else I have laying around the studio! Class Act! I never even complained about being charged 13 bucks figured no problem supporting him! Maybe Shepard adds freebies I don't know never bought a print from him! Oops did buy peace set from PCP to flip |

Yeah....why 3?
I know he's involved with the We Are The 99%.
Maybe he meant 9 and added an extra bit by mistake...

Don't think I could look at that every day. For me, Shep is keeping up his ratio of producing 1 good print out of every 10 or so. Saying that, I should own about a 100 of his prints by now if I'd bought every one I liked.

I think the 3 is meant to be the start of a count down. Maybe a series, maybe not.
(Reference to another Public Enemy title probably: Countdown to Armageddon)

The people not looking into his thieving practices against other artists and his admission of guilt are the hypnotized masses. He has become everything he ever claimed to be against. What a joke.

Must agree not a brilliat image by any means. I think he has got it pretty nailed with his releases $45 a go is exellent value. I would rather see it go to his pocket than the price for a flipped print be $2000+ if he released 2-3 a year. I struggle to get any and i only try on the ones i want!! |
