In my work, I illustrate my own imaginative world, a place where creatures of fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and lullabies, which are apart of our childhood and adult culture, interact - be it warring or not. My work addresses gender roles/gender assignment given to mermen, the fragility of unicorn/panda dynamics, domestic violence between centaurs and unitaurs and the underlying threads of violence and danger that underpin all other-worldly societies.

Sandro from Color Magazine just sent us a link today to the trailer for the viral video series (filmed and edited by Corey Adams). Check it out it's on the site. The opening quote from Tom in Kansas City was one of my favorites the entire trip. "I FUCKIN' HATE ART."

Man Carrying the Fancy Bird Print
My friend who helped me screen these prints some 2 years ago recently dropped off some extras that have been in his trunk for 2 years. I've only got 9 decent ones left.

Scene in which two friends may or may not decide to share a bike again

Scene in which two friends may or may not decide to share a bike again

Currently I'm working on some drawings for the Bicycle Film and Art Festival in Vancouver. All the art is bike-themed of course and I'm working on drawings for this show opening at the Grace Gallery in August. I'll post more information as it comes, but in the meantime, ride bikes with your old jailbuddies.

Sock Samples
A while back I worked with Portland company www.sockittome.com to design a Michael C. Hsiung sock design. The fine folks over there just sent me some pictures of the sock samples, which I thought were pretty sweet. Just some minor tweaks to get better detail and so forth and I think we'll be set for production in August. They'll be available on their website - so keep an eye out.

Merman Assassin Tattoo
A while back I was commissioned by a nice fellow to draw a merman type tattoo for him. We came up with a Merman Assassin type of fellow. Mr. Andy recently sent me some of these rad photos of his tattoo and his tattoo in action. My favorite ones are of course the ones where the arm feeding the alcohol features my drawing !!! Hee hee.

Weekend Snowboards Artist Series Draft
This is the layout draft for the second snowboard design. The background will be a solid color and the drawings will be black and white and red. So far, I think I'm right on track since my project deadline is June 1st. I'll be adding some schools of fish and a raccoon (their logo) in a inter-tube somewhere in the background. Okay, back to work.
