The serigraph below, "Secret Cul de Sac" goes on sale this morning at 10 a.m. at Shagmart. It is fantastic. Oh to live inside of this image, if only for a day. I want to tease my hair into a pretty coiffure circa 1960, don a lovely patio dress, and break out the croquet set. My town is nestled in the foothills of the Appalachians - very few yards in my area are flat enough to play croquet. (Not that I, my family, and friends haven't tried to play on many a hill - it makes for a challenging game!). Be sure to click the image to enlarge, so that you may see the full mid-century goodness of this print.
An older item from Shagmart: the "My First Cocktail" lunchbox. Too funny! As 11 year olds, my friend Shannon and I drank an entire bottle of grape Juicy Juice and thought we were drunk. I still to this day wonder if that juice had fermented. We were crazy-silly that night.

HA! After living in the mountains of NC, I can attest that playing croquet was not hot on our list either!
Oh my lord... I am GETTING that lunch box if it's the last thing I do!
i saw this artist's work a year or so ago at the laguna art museum (i think that is the name?). you would have LOVED it -- there were about 30 of his paintings up in all of their glory!
Love Shag! Can't believe I didn't know about this new work, so thanks for sharing. I wish I could own some of his stuff to properly hang on my walls, instead of just stationery and coasters and such. *Sigh*
awesome print!
Thanks for finding this! I did a whole post on it today, forgot to credit you, then just now went back and righted that wrong! I love Shag!

Shag is really good! He has a lot of cool ideas that I dig. There are very few who really capture the MCM illustrated life style well. Another one that I like is www.derekart.com. He's cool as well.
