June 5th, 2010FAN DEATH!
Limited edition of 100, 18 x 25 inch (large!), 3-colors (electric blue, orange, and forest green) on cream paper. Printed by the lovely Jordan Rae. Brighter in person, this picture doesn’t do the crazy 70’s palette justice! Only $25 each.
This drawing was inspired by the belief that if you sleep in a room with an electric fan running overnight, it will kill you. I’m not lying, read more about it HERE.
The hot weather in Brooklyn has led to some informal tests of this theory, and luckily I seem to be immune to fan death. SO FAR.
If you’d like a print, simply Paypal $25 + $5 shipping to me at: lisahanawalt@gmail.com. You might even get an extra goody in there! Wink!
THIS SATURDAY ONLY: Pugaga shirts!
May 5th, 2010That’s right, for 24 hours only you may purchase a Lady Pugaga shirt at www.teefury.com. Show off your love of pugs, Lady Gaga, fashion and/or bad puns for only nine bucks!

FUNNY (not funny)
January 21st, 2010I’m in this great group show, opening tomorrow evening (January 22) at The University of Michigan Work: Detroit Gallery.
The “FUNNY (not funny)” exhibition seeks to elicit uncomfortable laughter in the realm of black humor-a place where the serious and the taboo are fodder for comic provocation. Work by the twenty artists on view in “FUNNY (not funny)” demonstrates that cartooning is keeping the tradition of black humor alive and flourishing.
Participating Artists:
Ivan Brunetti
Chris Cilla
Sue Coe
Lisa Hanawalt
Glenn Head
Tim Hensley
Ian Huebert
Ben Katchor
Michael Kupperman
Mats!?
