I hope you know you can set many values at once:
myObject.set(myInt=43, myBlob=array('H',range(256)).tostring())
(That's offtopic, just a reminder.)

First, this has nothing with transactions. You can do conn.query() here.
Second, SQLBuilder... SQLObject is a high-level object that does a lot of
things internally, but SQLBuilder is a low-level interface that knows
nothing about classes, columns, column types, conversion; the first
parameters should be string (table name), the values must be converted to
the DB format; for a BLOB it means you have to use psycopg.Binary wrapper.
This code works for my in Postgres and SQLite:
record = {'my_int':44,
'my_blob':conn.createBinary(array('H',range(256)).tostring())}
conn.query(conn.sqlrepr(sqlbuilder.Insert(MyObject.sqlmeta.table, [record])))
