i want candykiller

      
Candykiller limited edition letterpress print

  I am a great fan of great genre blending, and little seems to go more seamlessly together than artist Candykiller's combo of classic toon characters with gore and dispair.  Perfectly rendered and yet entirely unique, this work ranges from the adorable to the disturbing - my two favorite categories, of anything.  Candykiller employs all types of well-executed print-making techniques, and recently has come out with a line of plush and vinyl toys that no kiddie of adult should be without.  The prints feature delightful characters I can only hope will soon be part of larger narratives, but even if not, I hope that Candykiller keeps the treats coming.
Beautiful sketches
