The machines have become self-aware.

Finished this recently for SRH in San Diego for an upcoming t-shirt release. They wanted something along the lines of a living machine made up entirely of parts from a motocross bike. Did the whole thing with a brush and ink. My hand still hurts. I hope it gets printed!

It's Hot Rod Season

Created this a few months back but it didn't end up being used, so here it is. Hopefully it'll find a home sooner or later. I just like it too much to keep it hidden until someone buys it. I am selling high-quality 12x18" prints of this for $15 if anyone is interested. Hope you enjoy...

Gym Class Heroes - Stereo Hearts

Just finished some art for the first single off Gym Class Heroes' new record, Papercut Chronicles II, called Stereo Hearts. This'll also be on t-shirts soon. Hope you dig it....

Roddin' for Red

Just finished this flyer, it's to promote a hot rod show happening in a couple months as a benefit for my sister-in-law and her husband (my brother). For all the details, visit the event website: Roddin' for Red. Anyone interested in showing a car or attending can get dinner tickets directly from me, just email me. I'll be glad to mail them to you at no extra cost. Hopefully we can get a lot of people there!

Muertos y los Dientes

This is a painting I finished a little while back after using the original inkwork to produce the SRH day of the dead t-shirt graphic I did for them (below). Hope you enjoy...

Muerte

Here's another t-shirt graphic recently done for SRH in southern Cali. The AD there lets me do some really cool stuff (big up A).

SoCal Black Death

And here's the same illustration from the SRH biker graphic, finished out in a slightly different way with watercolors....

SRH Biker

Here's a t-shirt graphic I recently completed for SRH out in San Diego. Hand illustrated with ink and a brush, scanned and colored in photoshop.

Louis Logic

Just finished a flyer design for a Louis Logic and I Am Many show being held at Tymeless Tattoo in Baldwinsville on Friday the 13th of May - I like how it turned out, I did it entirely with a brush and india ink, with the exception of the lettering and the red background.

New Mix Art for Silas Maximus

Just did some quickie mix art for Silas Maximus' new mashup mix "Rocket Surgery". It's another great one - listen here.

Commission

Just finished a commission for a good friend of mine. He wanted some 3D graffiti done as a triptych, in somewhat neutral colors, but left the rest up to me. This is what I ended up with - the piece is acrylic on 3 wood panels, each sized at 28x52", with 2" in between each panel, so like 88x52" overall. Definitely the biggest acrylic painting I've done. I usually like to work smaller so this was HARD. The first image is the whole thing, the other shots are closeups of a couple sections.

120 Proof : Aftermath

So the experts agree - 120 Proof was a success. Great turnout, great art, great performances. Thanks to all who came out to show their support. I hope we can do another one soon. In the meantime, here are some photos from the event. The green piece behind the DJs and MCs is something I've recently completed; I'll have better photos up on here soon.

De La Garza

I also recently completed the album art for Ben's new album. If you haven't heard it yet, do yourself a favor: For the Unforeseeable Future. Dude's straight genius on the guitar.

Untamed Industries

Sorry for the lack of updates recently. I'm working on lots of stuff, just can't release most it yet. Here's a t-shirt graphic I did a few months back for Untamed Industries, an MMA-related clothing company:

1955

Just completed the watercolor remix of the Trav McCoy/Billionaire art I did recently. I had the original inked drawing that was already on watercolor paper, so why not paint it. In this incarnation, I call it '1955'. It is for sale - it's 13.25x23.5", unframed, although I will be framing it. Email me if you're interested in purchasing it.

Showing at Orange Line Gallery

I will be showing several pieces at the Orange Line Gallery, in downtown Syracuse (106 Montgomery St.). The gallery has just recently opened, I'm excited to be a part of it, the people involved in this are really doing it right and it's very cool. The gallery is having an official 'opening' for its first show on October 21, part of the Syracuse art scene's Third Thursday event. Swing on through and see some of my work (plus lots of other awesome artwork) in person!

8 Million Ways to Die

Here's a couple sample pages I did recently for a graphic novel project pitch, based on the novel 8 Million Ways to Die, by Lawrence Block. Unfortunately, this isn't going anywhere, but I liked the way these turned out so I'm posting them up....enjoy.

Album Art for Sean Place

Just finished some album art for Sean Place, America's favorite house and techno DJ:
