I accumulate things. Also, stuff. And I keep them in piles. I’m sure I’m not alone in this – in fact I’m pretty sure Einstein was a piler as well.

Sometimes it pays to take a step back from all the tiny details and try to distill something to its essence. Simplicity can sometimes be used to gloss over something more complicated, but in the hands of a master, simplicity can clarify an idea so it declares its message more succinctly. On the other hand, in the hands of a master who also happens to be snarky, the idea of simplicity gets turned on its head, and turned into a great visual joke. Have it both ways in this set called “Simple,” with art by Graham Annable, Tad Carpenter, Jennifer Daniel, Tom Gauld, Blanca Gómez, David Huyck, and Lauren Nassef.

Yes! It’s official! A few of you guessed it, but now you all know it: Ed Emberley is making two original prints with us, and with his daughter and frequent collaborator, Rebecca, on board as well, our special edition will include 15 original 4″x6″ screen prints, as well as Ed’s 8″x10″ letterpress print.

Here’s the full run-down:

Cloudy Collection is excited to announce a super-special edition of prints by the amazing Ed Emberley! This 8″x10″ print titled “Monster Parade” is carefully crafted in four spot colors on letterpress, in a limited edition of 250 hand-numbered prints. The print comes wrapped in a custom slipcase, screen printed in metallic silver on black paper.

And there’s more! Ed Emberley and fourteen of his biggest fans have created another set of prints, also titled “Monster Parade.” All 15 four-color screen prints are 4″x6″, and come wrapped in a custom, die-cut slipcase, printed in purple on letterpress. This edition is limited to 100 hand-numbered sets, and includes art by Ed Emberley, his daughter Rebecca Emberley, S. Britt, Tad Carpenter, Maura Cluthe, Becky Dreistadt, Bob Flynn, Meg Hunt, David Huyck, John Martz, Caleb Neelon, Heather Ross, Souther Salazar, Bwana Spoons, and Nate Wragg.

All of this is made possible by the amazing and wonderful Anne Koyama of Koyama Press. The prints will make their debut at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival at the Koyama Press table on May 7th and 8th, 2011. Whatever prints remain will be available here on the Cloudy Collection website after the festival. No peeks until then!

As mentioned last time, the edition will debut at this May’s Toronto Comic Arts Festival. Sign up for the mailing list if you want a reminder.

This coming weekend, however, I will be in Portland for the Stumptown Comics Festival. Find me at table D-5, right across from our pal Graham Annable, and around the corner from another Cloudy Collection alum, Vera Brosgol. I’ll have all sorts of Cloudy Collection prints (including a few single-prints, only available at conventions like this), a few comics and prints of my own, buttons, stickers, and a few other odds and ends. Plus I’ll have paper, ink, pencils, and brushes, etc., and I’ll be taking on-the-spot commissions! Cheap! Come on out – it will be a great time!

P.S. Some of you are already trying to figure out who our artist-of-honor is for this special edition. Your guesses will be confirmed or corrected next weekend! YES!

This first edition of Volume III is an homage and celebration of the work of a childhood hero of mine (and at least thirteen other artists) – whose name will be announced later this month. In the meantime, let’s welcome back a pile of our old friends, back to make more stuff for this edition: S.Britt, Tad Carpenter, Maura Cluthe, Becky Dreistadt, Bob Flynn, Meg Hunt, John Martz, Heather Ross, and Bwana Spoons! Such awesome artists, and just wait till you see what they made!

The edition will debut at this May’s Toronto Comic Arts Festival. If you’re planning to be there (and check out that lineup! you gotta go!) make sure you get a map and plan your route to the Koyama Press table, so you can be first in line. After the in-person launch at TCAF, we’ll post the prints for sale here on the website – sign up for the mailing list if you want a reminder.

Next week we’ll announce the rest of the lineup (minus our featured star! Patience, friends!)
