Where High Gets Low.
Hey Folks:
First of all, Happy New Year!
Second of all, the perfectly wonderful Stikman has given me three of his 2012 calendars for giveaway, which means that this little lady (and her adorable little stick dude) could be hanging over your desk.
Y’all know the drill. Leave a comment below and this dapper pair could be all yours.

Hey Folks:
This is a good one. The kind folks at Abrams have given me five (yes, five!) copies of Jay Edlin’s Graffiti 365 for giveaway on the blog. This is a hardback doozy (it retails for $32.50), clocking in at more than 700 pages and weighing as much as a small boar. It’s an excellent compendium of graffiti and street art: an exhaustive alphabetical gathering of the movement’s players, large and small, with lots of pictures to boot.
Leave a comment below and you could be one of five very lucky people.

Hey Folks:
I have a little treat from Prestel for giveaway purposes: Tristan Eaton’s 3-D Art Book, complete with trippy imagery supplied by more than a hundred artists — from Ron English to Miss Van. It comes equipped with two pairs of 3-D glasses. A good way to spend a stonerrific afternoon…

Hey Folks:
I’ve got a copy of Patrick Nguyen’s and Stuart Mackenzie’s Beyond the Street: The 100 Leading Figures in Urban Art to give away (courtesy of the kind folks at Gestalten). It’s a who’s who of street art’s scene-y scene. Y’all know the drill. Leave a comment and this puppy could be yours.
As always, muchas gracias for reading C-Mon.

Have you ever had a burning desire to admire the inkjet paintings of Jeff Koons doing it with his porn star ex-wife La Cicciolina? Well, consider this your lucky day. ‘Cuz I’m giving away one copy of the catalogue from the recent exhibit of Koons’ porny pictures from his exhibit at Luxembourg & Dayan.

Hey Folks:
I’m a little late on this giveaway (I’m behind on just about everything these days), but it doesn’t mean it won’t be worth it — especially if you’re looking for an afternoon’s worth of spectacularly stonerrific entertainment. For this edition, I have a copy of Sebastian Denz‘s Skateboarding.3D (courtesy of Prestel) — which true to its name features skateboarders doing their thing in three trippy dimensions. Comes complete with four sets of super chic 3D glasses.

Hey Folks:
The latest edition of Lonely Planet’s guide to Costa Rica is out and it’s got several chapters by yours truly. So, if you want to know where to find the best effing cinnamon rolls in San José or are looking for the spiciest Caribbean chicken in Tortuguero or simply want to know where to take a hike in the Central Valley, then this is the book for you.
As always, I’ve got an extra copy to give away. Leave a comment below and this little baby could be yours.

Hey Folks:
The elusive street artist Stikman has given me a copy of his lovingly crafted 2011 wall calendar for a giveaway. Let’s just say y’all are lucky I don’t keep this one for myself.
Leave a comment and this little piece of Fun in the Sun could be all yours.

P.S. Been having a little work done on the site, so things may look janky until everything is sorted out.
Hot Dog, by Tomoo Gokita. (Image courtesy of Gokita and Art We Love.)
Hey Folks:
The people behind ArtWeLove have kindly given me a $50 gift certificate, valid on their site, for some holiday art buyin’. The site features prints and photography from a stable of international artists — including that juicy hot dog by Tomoo Gokita, above. So, if you’re looking to do a little holiday shopping for that special someone and are plum out of ideas (and money), consider this your early Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa or whatever excuse you use to buy stuff at this time of year…

Hey Folks:
For those into studying their nudie history, Jim Linderman — purveyor of vintage everything at the websites Dull Tool Dim Bulb and Vintage Sleaze — has kindly given us a couple of his photographic books for the purpose of a fantabulous garter-stocked giveaway.
