Artist Vance Kelly has worked on an extensive collection of screen prints which have been released by Hero Complex Gallery, these prints include:
“Michael Comes Home” – This print brings to life the original Halloween film with a looming Michael front and center, with a panicked Laurie Strode below a giant knife that Myers is holding. Kelly has also added more memories to the killer collage by showing off other memorable moments that are imprinted on the minds of all fans of the original Halloween film. The use of orange lettering and dark colours for the images really helps to give the feel of impending doom in this 24 x 36 inch screen print, which is limited to 225 available.
Price: $60 USD
“Monster Maker” – This screen print is inspired by retired special effects artist extraordinaire Rick Baker. Kelly illustrated Baker front and center with sculpting tool in hand, and surrounded by many of the characters he is famous for (Harry and the Hendersons, Hellboy, Gremlins, The Howling and others). This particular print was made for an event where Ed Wood and Harry and the Hendersons screened, Baker was in attendance with and Dana Gould for a Q and A afterward. The 24 x 36 inch screen print, which is limited to 100, scarcely uses colours throughout and really helps to highlight one of the most beloved special effects artists of our time.
Price: $55 USD
