Nice piece of art: Hello Kitty x Plasticgod

It all started when we attended the Three Apples Exhibit Art Show. Plenty of Hello Kitty inspired pieces were on display and a series of 4x4 prints by plasticgod lined a wall. Cute prints depicting the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Cindy Lauper, MJ, Gaga. I loved them. Not only were they Hello Kitty, but also some of my favorite celebrities. When I found out their reasonable price, I had to have them.


The hubs and I purchased 4 prints. MJ & Karl (both of which sold out) and Tron & Sark (hubs' fave of the bunch). We were happy. Then we find out a second series of delectably cute prints would be available in a few weeks. Eager and excited, we wanted to know which famous faces would this series include.

There were hints on twitter. Series 2 premiered. Then a goth Series 2.5. I love the majority of the prints in each series and when a 3rd series was hinted at, I thought why not ask plasticgod if he included something so LA, so me, so sportstastic. So I asked if he would consider a Lakers print.



Got a reply that it was a good idea! But wondered if the idea would reach reality. Then an announcement of a series 3 to debut at DesigernCon in Pasadena. I had to go, so hubs, my bro, and I attended. Found the Japan LA booth, and saw it. HK Lakers. Love! Of course I purchased it :)



Picked it up this weekend and was so happy. Also purchased an extra for my cousin/bmaid P, an avid Lakers fan.

Here is my little collection. Top row is Karl Lagerfeld, Michael Jackson, Gwen Stefani, and Lakers. Bottom row is comprised of the hub's favorite movies: The Dude and Walter from "The Big Lebowski" and Sark and Tron from "Tron". While I'm not an art collector (yet), I think this is a nice start :)
