dyno



Dyno is the latest newcomer to the fabric8 art gallery. A Vallejo-based artist and designer, he personifies (or animalifies?) himself as a cute, multi-colored dinosaur that finds itself in various situations. "Hard Work Can Never Be Cloned" and "The Wonder Is Still Out There" are both 8in. x 8in. pieces done with acrylic and ink. The top one is already sold but you can still get "Wonder" for US$ 90 by emailing us.

Painter and custom toy guru Leecifer came by with these new 8x8s recently -- they're fun! We're digging the color palette and subject matter on "Moon and Stars" and "Mo and Bee". Done with acrylic on canvas, they're a nice deal at US$ 150 each. Email us for more info.
