The coolest Christmas gifts :-)

2008-12-01T05:11:00.000-08:00

Produst of God is now releasing 2 new posters. Please check “I Would Say I Love You” (50x70 cm), based on typographic characters and the “Hollandaise Party” (80x60 cm), which is an hommage to Jerôme Bosch, hum sorry, Hieronymus Bosch. I would say this artwork represents a cool, relaxed orgy :-) Last day for ordering before Christmas is 15th December!
