Demon Seed Umbel Fighter Pilot

Another board graphic for Demon Seed Skateboards in the books! This time I got to do a Rat Fink style WWII fighter pilot bumblebee for another Bob Umbel signature board. Lots of fun - these will be available soon through Demon Seed and I'll eventually have a handful for sale in my web store as well. Hope you dig it!

Couple New Pieces

New stuff! Just did these two gig posters, one for the Louder Than Life festival in Kentucky, and the other for Rock Allegiance in NJ. Definitely dig doing posters like this, more please.

New Shirts!

Did a few new little pieces and I have them available on shirts - go to my Teepublic Store to view and buy these, among others!

Ivy Mike!

Did this for the centerfold of an upcoming issue of Ol' Skool Rodz magazine. Can't wait to see it in print.

Download Fest Art

I think I forgot to post this one. It's a t-shirt graphic done for last summer's UK Download Fest. Unfortunately never got printed. Woulda been nice to see it in print. Oh well --

Strong Hearts Cafe T-shirt Graphic

I got the opportunity to do this t-shirt graphic for Strong Hearts Cafe here in Syracuse, I think it turned out pretty sweet. Rumor has it it will be available at the cafe soon, and they may even have some limited prints made too. This was a ton of fun. Thanks Joel!

Minion Stickers are Available!

Finally made the jump to vinyl die-cut stickers. Got some done of the little minion I did - thanks to Bryan at Rockin' Stickers for hooking it up just right. They're available in my webstore for only two bucks. Go check 'em out and pick up a couple!

SHANK OR DIE

Got a chance today to shoot some photos of this piece I did recently for the Deck the Halls all-skate-deck art show at the SALTQuarters Gallery here in Syracuse. This piece is now sold and it's gonna be hard to let go of it, but I guess that's just all the more reason to get into the next one! I decided against trying to scan it because of the curvature of the board, so I tried to get some good photos instead. Here's the shot of the whole thing followed by some closeups. Lighting isn't optimal, even though I was outside (in single-digit temperatures, no less) when I shot it, but you get the idea. It does look better in person, but what are you gonna do. I'll take what I can get, I'm no pro photographer. Hope you dig it.

51 Tire and Transmission

Just finished this art for 51 Tire & Transmission's shop tees. Did two versions - one for dark shirts, one for light shirts, since they'll be printing both. Love drawing stuff in this style. All pen and ink except the lettering. Thanks Tony!

Hot Dog Chainsaw!

Just a maniacal weekend sketch...I'd love to ink up one of these and make a band t-shirt graphic out of it...

Louder Than Life

I was asked to create some t-shirt art for the Louder Than Life music festival that's happening in Louisville, Kentucky this weekend (Oct. 4/5). There are some really great bands playing and I guess it's also a celebration of fine whiskey and food as well as the music, wish I could've gone! They specifically wanted some hot rod/ed roth type art, so I came up with this. I'm posting two versions - I did the color-limited version first, and I still like it a bit better, but they wanted more color, so the second version is what was printed. I still dig it a ton, I just tend to gravitate towards limited color stuff myself. I'm sure the colorful version will sell more shirts though. Regardless, it was a great project, and they were actually kind enough to send me a couple sample shirts too - one of which I'm keeping, the other is for sale in my webstore. The print came out really nice - definitely proud of this one!

Codependency

Just a wacked-out sketch I came up with while watching ghetto birds hover overhead and gunshots and sirens blaring in the near distance at the last Toxic Lakers drink and draw session in downtown Syracuse....enjoy the effects....

"You must have big rats if you need Hattori Hanzo steel...."

This one was a lot of fun. Gotta do more like this. A private commission - pen and ink with watercolor, 8x10". Working small like this was cool, much easier to get into it than my usual larger finished size.

MORE FRIGGIN POSTAL SLAPS

I've done over a hundred of these stickers now (in this style, I mean - who knows how many I've done over the course of the last 20 years - thousands??). I'm not gonna post all of them because that shit would be tiring. So instead, here's a few of my recent favorites. By the way, you can buy some of these in my webstore, linked here and also to the right of this post (where it says SHOP). You can buy individual stickers or a mystery pack of 6 for the price of 5. I try to keep the prices low, but keep in mind these take me about a half hour each to do, so I can't sell them for pennies. Go check them out!

Primus Variants Update

For those of you waiting for Primus variant prints who missed my Facebook and Instagram posts from earlier today, you'll be pleased to know that I will shipping out all completed prints tomorrow morning (Thursday July 17 2014). Finally! I know it's been a while since you've placed your order and I apologize, but these prints had quite a bit more work involved than the average print, so I hope you'll be happy when you receive them and feel it was worth the wait. They were done in 3 stages - spraypaint first, then the black ink hand-screened by Galaxy Graphics (thanks again Evan), then I went back in and did some watercolor painting to fill in certain areas with more color. The image below shows them at stage 2 - right after the screen but before the watercolor. I think they're coming out really fresh...super grimy, heavy and hard hitting. I'll post an image soon of all 25 variants together so you can get an idea of their uniqueness - each is one of a kind.
