Champion

I drew up a new illustration for Ira over at "Champions of Hell". I'm pretty sure he liked it, because he put it on his leg...forever.

Rifflanda Bro

The good folks at Scum Creative Labs and the Rifflandia Music Festival asked me to remix their Rifflandia Logo ( see icosahedron ) for their limited release "Rifflandabrau" Pilsner with Phillips Brewing Company. Specially Brewed for their Festival, I cranked the dial to "Skullquake" with my interpretation. Keep an eye out for the finished label and enjoy a cold Rifflandabrau at the Fest.

Portfolio




In putting together an email to show some portfolio work. I came across some old favs.
Thought I'd post them here for you to check out.

Transworld Surf - "How To" Harry

"How To" Harry is a character that I draw for Transworld Surf magazine. He usually learns the hard way and uses his lack of common sense to entertain and educate those who seek his advice.

There is an interview with me on SanFrancisco's Fecal Face Dot Com. Look in the right hand margin and scroll down. It's in the Mini-Interviews section. http://www.fecalface.com/

The Phillips wall

Had a paint session with the Dobell Bros. Chris and Stu down at the Brewery over the weekend.
I'm almost finished my part of the wall but eager to see what Morgan does with his side and to see the whole thing come together. Should be a nice piece when she's done.

Dusting off the cans

Went out and painted on the Wildfire Bakery last Sunday. Not finished yet, but the character came together allright. I painted a Kwakwaka'wakw chief with a talking stick. He seemed like
he might have something to say about all the noise down there. Hoping to finish this weekend.
Not sure what I'm doing...but it's sure nice to paint on a wall again.

Slummer Days

Sometimes when your mind is weary from the daily grind, the best thing to do is to make it more weary with too much sunshine and a cooler full of fun. This was a little 24 hr vacation to Sindey Island with a couple of good friends. Ahhhhh much too short but, oh so sweet.

The Abracadabra Show

Abracadabra is both a local art publication and group art show inspired by the theme of Magic and Metaphysics. It is a celebration of the otherworldly, an embracing of the unexplainable.In succession to the BeCause, the Glue Factory, the Natural Low, the Feast, and the Make, Abracadabra is yet another incantation of Victoria’s young, underground arts community.I was stoked to be included in this years mix of artists. The poster that I did for the show. (above)

Cheaper Show Weekend

Still a little tired today from attending the Cheaper Show in Vancouver over the weekend.
Great to see old friends and meet lots of cool new people. The place was packed and lineups wrapped around the interior of the space with people lined up to purchase artwork.
A huge thanks to Meghan Paterson and the rest of the Cheaper Show staff for putting on such a fun and successful event, and to those of you who managed to get there early enough and get through that massive line and actually get a piece of amazing artwork!...wow....congrats!

I really liked these (above) paste-ups for the show. Nice work whoever made these!

Man Cold



Caught a nasty headcold virus. Feeling like I'm on the ocean floor and my head's about to implode. Ugh. My wife refers to it as a Man Cold...because apparently she had the same thing last week but "she didn't let it get to her"...Wives are either super tough....or super disillusioned...I'll just put that out there.
