Greetings from Hyperspace Studios!

We're excited to announce two new collaborative art prints now available through our online store. Both are archival canvas museum-quality reproductions signed and dated by the artists.

Biomech Lightform was painted in collaboration between Guy Aitchison and renowned Pittsburgh abstract tattooist Don McDonald. Last year, we mentioned this project in a newsletter as Don and Guy were constructing the elaborate models that were to be used as reference for the final painting. The completed image is an epic psychedelic vision of a cavernous otherworldly space, the second in a series of collaborations between these two artists; reproductions are 22x32".

Aquatica was a collaborative effort between Guy and celebrated oceanic realist Deano Cook, combining Deano's sublime marine vision with Guy's alien sensibility to create a one-of-a-kind space that is both serene and otherworldly. This image was derived from a combination of clay models and Deano's underwater photos, resulting in an exciting and surreal image. Reproductions are 26x38".

Also on the subject of paintings, Guy has a collection of work printed in the July 2007 issue of Flash Magazine, available now at newsstands everywhere. Flash Magazine has been printing a series of 'outsert' magazine supplements with each issue featuring the paintings of various artists in the tattoo profession; this month's collection shows many of Guy's favorite paintings through the years.

We are pleased to introduce the first two sketches from an on going series entitled hypersketches. These fun and expressive watercolor like abstractions are originals created by Michele Wortman and available only at our Ebay store.

In addition, Michele and Guy's exhibition of paintings at Good Time Charlie's Tattooland has been extended for another month. During this time we will be listing many of these paintings on eBay; check out our eBay store throughout the coming month to see what we have available. If you are located in Southern California, drop by Tattooland to check out the art and to see the amazing tattoo work coming from the motley band of talented artists working there.

Last but not least, our new online store is up and running. The new store looks very similar to the old one, with one major exception: it works properly and doesn't reject transactions nearly as often as the old one. If you attempted to make a purchase at the Hyperspace store during the month of April and experienced difficulties, those problems have been fixed. Now is a great time to stock up on new Hyperspace clothing items for your summer wardrobe.

Thanks much,

Guy Aitchison & Michele Wortman

Greetings,

We're finally getting a chance to reflect on a very memorable December event for us.

On December 16 we participated in Visionary Primitive, a tattoo performance hosted by Alex and Allyson Grey in NYC @ Cosmosis. A lot of amazing artists and friends were there to help make the event a topnotch experience. We enjoyed sharing company with participating artists James Kern, Jon Clue, Joe Capobianco, Cory Kruger, Jon Jon, Jarrett Demartino, Zachariah, Christian Mascot and Dan Craft. Our friends Mindy and Phil, Jennifer Soulliere, Thad and Amanda Minnick and Holly Lane were rock solid with their help.

The event started with a 6 hour tattoo demonstration. Guy did a bio-organic upper arm, and Michele did a upper arm working within the theme of "unconditional love".

After the event we broke down our set up and prepared for Entheocentric Salon, a ravelike party with DJ's spinning trance and psychedelic projections covering the walls. The highlight of this experience was painting live till 5 am, sharing the space with two of our art heroes, Alex and Allyson Grey as well as friends Jon Clue, James Kern, and Cory Kruger.

The following night we opened the Visionary Primitive gallery exhibit in MicroCosm, which included artwork from all the participating artists as well as the live paintings that we did the previous night.

To see a gallery of photos from the event and images of the art we have hanging there, click Here.

The show is up till February 3rd @ MicroCosm, a division of the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors. All work is for sale.

We have priced our work at extremely reasonable prices and half the proceeds go to CoSM, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the movement of Visionary art and recognizing the divine within.

Please stop in if you are in NYC while the show is up. It's one not to be missed. Microcosm is located @ 540 West 27th Street, 4th floor NYC NY, the number is 212 594-8841.

If you are interested in inquiring about purchasing a painting please contact Eli Morgan @ e@cosm.org

Thanks for your support and Happy New Years from Hyperspace!

All the best,

Michele and Guy
