BYE BYE ROBOT RELEASES NEW IMPRESSIONIST STYLE STAR TREK™ POSTER SERIES BY ARTIST JEFF FOSTER

An art style harkening back to the Impressionists, featuring the U.S.S. Enterprise & Klingon Birds-of-Prey.

Austin, Texas – July 5, 2012 Bye Bye Robot is pleased to announce a brand new series of fully licensed STAR TREK posters from Southern California painter and illustrator Jeff Foster.  The new series blends this artist’s impressionistic style with iconic ship imagery from STAR TREK movies and television series.

The initial launch includes “Exploration,” a striking rendition of the Starship Enterprise set against a colorfully painted background that will delight both STAR TREK fans and art lovers.  Also included is “Hunting for Prey” featuring three foreboding Klingon Birds-of-Prey against a vividly red, nebula bursting, star field. 

Launched at Comicplaooza in Houston, the new posters were a hit with STAR TREK™ fans & art collectors alike.

“We are thrilled with the popularity of the new series,” says Charity Wood, Co-Founder of Bye Bye Robot. “Jeff’s work brings another dimension to the realm of SciFi & STAR TREK artwork.  We can’t wait to see what he has in store for the rest of his series”

Both the “Exploration” and “Hunting for Prey” posters, licensed by CBS Consumer Products, are available for purchase today from http://www.byebyerobot.com for $25 plus shipping. The new poster will also be available at Creation Entertainment’s Star Trek Convention Las Vegas in August.
