Where I am


Hey there just wanted to drop a quick postcard to let you know where I've been. I'm currently spending most of my time over at the Any How Town blog (see link at right) and will posting there almost daily.
I only have one commission coming up so there won't be many paintings posted here for the next while, I'm working incredibly hard on finishing the first book in the Any How Town series and that blog is where you can read about it's progress, see dioramas and tutorials about how to build your own popsicle stick vehicles and buildings and check out sketches of characters.
Follow along on twitter to keep up with postings and don't forget to head to the Press Club or the Wilson 96 to see paintings available for sale, all proceeds going to helping me finish the books.
have a beauty day,
A.Shay Hahn

you can also keep up with the news by liking my facebook page "Andrew Shay Hahn (the mad craft shoppe)" here's the link for that

Globe pieces at the Wilson 96



The Hammer Team, The Paintter's Assistants
30x30inches, acrylic on canvas
$700.00 each
Currently at the Wilson 96 (615 College Str, across from the CHIN building and the Royal Cinema) two of my most favourite pieces. The Globes are wonderful, I love them and so does everyone else, I really do miss doing large scale work, so much so that last night on the street car ride home I'd convinced myself that it was time to go big again and to work in oil so when I'm finished this month of working on the Any How Town books (see links, right margin) I just may do that.
Many thanks to S.Power for letting me hang the work, the Wilson 96 is now open for coffee during the day so you can drop in on these two pieces pretty much any time you like and if you dig trivia it's the place to be on Tuesday nights.

Here's the current layout at the Press Club not only would it be worth the trip to head down to Dundas West and pick up some wonderful artwork by yours truly (and help me pay for my wedding,seriously) but you can also go check out the "building" that has replaced the Musa building almost right across the street.
Why should I do that ? You ask
Because it is so well constructed that it almost BLEW OVER in the wind last week. It's a building!
Other things to do on Dundas, no doubt you've seen the "Robo call" controversy on the news, well I reported about it first, here's a link to the post
Next post The World View Globes at the Wilson 96
have a great +13 day
