These unique, colorful prints will cheer up any reception area or operatory and are in stark contrast to some of the bland fare now available. Kids in particular love them!
How did Mayforth enter into the world of dental art?
"These paintings are based on ideas that come from daily drawing sessions in my sketchbooks," Mayforth said. "These sessions are all over the map. Very much like free associating. Having said that, I started to do small paintings on wood of some of these ideas with the thought of marketing them as prints. I should mention that my dad was big on flossing, and he passed that along to me. These paintings just sort of happened, and before I knew it I had a series. Three of these prints have been featured in The Artful Home catalogue and sold well."
According to Mayforth's website, "He started his illustration career in Boston and returned to Vermont where he lives with his wife and three sons. Hal has been the recipient of many awards and honors, including a swimming award at Camp Abnaki in the early '60s. In addition to drawing little guys with big eyes and big noses for money, he is also serious about drawing in his sketchbooks every morning and fashioning those drawings into paintings. His illustration clients include Time, Newsweek, U.S. News and World Report, The Wall Street Journal, Outside, Sports Illustrated, Coke, Pepsi, IBM, HBO, Chase, and Bell Atlantic, and his paintings have been shown widely in the U.S."
The dental prints are available through Hal Mayforth’s website at www.illogator.com/may4th, or by contacting him at 802-229-2716.. He is also available for custom work. He offers prints, fine art, switchplates, calendars, t-shirts, and more.
