Jeff Soto. The Californian. Edition Size: 100. 24 x 36 Inches Archival Pigment Print on 310gsm on Museum Natural Fine Art Paper. $ 125.00. "I have been playing with the ideas of nostalgia and youth, and ultimately growing up and entering into the adult world. This painting focuses on a robot from a TV show we watched. It is rising triumphantly out of the badlands - the hills and mountains and rural areas we grew up in. This piece was a commission without any art direction, they let me do my thing. I did some drawings like always and found the right imagery. Though the colors are dark, it is a positive piece. It is also aggressive, and strong in a non threatening way I think. I really like the fact that this print is the actual size of the painting. Most prints are smaller than the originals." - Jeff Soto.
