Father figures doin righteous things

Whipped up a little set of father figures for my friends fundraiser. All of these will be for sale, along with other local and non-local artists work, to support their DIY skate spot in Syracuse, NY. The event is on April 5th at 7pm at Spark Contemporary Art Space. Go and buy some stuff hanging on the walls so they can keep the spot going.

Father Figures

Working on some stuff for a show. Details soon.

Soul Clap and Dance-Off

Wrapped this back on Valentine's Day but waited a little until the show started getting advertised.  Jonathan Toubin throws some excellent parties and I'm psyched that he asked me to illustrate a poster for one of his infamous shows. I was lucky enough to judge one of the dance contests last year and it was intense. Let this quote from Vice sum it better than anybody else can:

"Jonathan Toubin is the only person we can call a "professional DJ" without involuntarily making a jack-off motion with our hand... His parties are like what Ancient Stonehenge was like if it was, as archaeologists theorize, filled with people dressed many times better than you completely losing their shit." (VICE, 2010)

"King For A Day" at Hero Complex Gallery

I think I can finally mention this one. I did a promotional piece for "King For A Day" a tribute show to the works of Stephen King at Hero Complex Gallery. Show opens on March 21st. Big high-five from the east coast to Adam on the west coast for including me in this show. 

Below are some process pics and details from the final image.

Sketch Dump

Made some Full Moon Fever inspired portraits of Tom Petty for my friend. He requested it be that time frame in Petty's career. 

Remember this guy? Tryin' to make some coffee cups with it. Sketchin out some stuff right now. Hopefully have something tangible in a few months.

Those little guys in the left corner will, hopefully, if all goes according to plan, be waiting for you at the bottom of your cup.

R.I.P. Philip Seymour Hoffman. Bummed this guy is gone. 

Rumblefish.

Johnny Suede. Not a great movie but, I still love it. After I saw it, I couldn't get this song Nick Cave sings out of my head. If you haven't seen it, it's worth sitting through once.

Classic Hopper.

Woooord.

Almost done with this lil' guy for Hero Complex Gallery.
