Description Here’s my poster for the Breaking Bad viral campaign with Breaking Gifs. Sorry for the major spoiler, but shame on you, you should have been finished with season 4 of Breaking Bad already!! That show is awesome. If I totally just ruined the past season’s finale for you, well then, sorry.

18”x24” 5 color screen printed poster with metallic inks. $50.

For those of you familiar with the show, the poster is of television’s most polarizing villain, Gus Fring. As you can see, I’m drawing a connection between the Pink Teddy Bear with his face half-blown-off that falls from the sky and into Walter’s pool. For the remainder of the series, the bear watches, judges, and taunts Walt. I felt like this was not only a parallel to Gus, but a foreshadowing of his fate. The background obviously represents the explosion that ultimately got the best of Gus, but is also a nod to the sheets of meth that get broken up in his lab. He is in a pose much like you would see on a body in a coffin, only Gus’ final bed is on the meth that ultimately led to his demise.

Is this available to purchase as a print? I own a few pieces of BB art and I love this one. Fantastic.

This is gorgeous. Amazing symbolism. I thought of the bear thing too. I'm so glad I'm not the only one. It really embodies the inevitability feeling that looms over the series.

Amazing work! Both in execution, and meaning. You drew the connection between them perfectly. I'd really never associated the bear with Gus before, but it's really interesting to think about.
