Technology is Racing.




Hey dudes! So, here is my recently wrapped up contribution to the Triple G show. A nerd show at Gallery 1988 in LA based on 3 classic 80's movies. I always liked that there was a certain amount of scientific experimentation and innovation in each of the 3 movies involved(Goonies, Ghostbusters, and Gremlins:I know, I know, it's Gremlins 2, but....) which ends up usually mis-firing, but eventually turns the tables on the baddies.


I really enjoy making piece specific repeat patterns, and so attached is the detail of the wallpaper-esque patterns in the background of each part...



So, an addendum: Good friend and fellow occasional Blogger, wonderful toy designer, and astounding musician Kyle Hussa-Lietz pointed this out to me, which fucking made a wonderful weekend more wonderful: one of my favorite nerd blogs posts about the show!

Kappas Will Eat Your Guts.



So recently I was asked by good buddy Chogrin to contribute to a book all about monsters from world folklore. I chose the Kappa, a wonderfully odd, sort of cute, sort of terrifying aquatic creature from Japan's folk history. Look him up. Total weirdo. Anyway the book is being put out by the wonderful folks over at Tiki Machine. You should go check them out too.

Ultra-Mandance.



Here's a new little limited color piece done for an Autumn Society show celebratin' Japanese Pop culture. Ultra-Mandance. The first dance is yours.

Mars!




While I'm at it, here's another recently finished piece done for a Mars themed coloring book. The idea was to not stray too far from the realms of science, and possibility, namely: no aliens, space dragon/wizard battles, etc. This is a nod to both current technology and the idea of Mars being used as a backup Earth for when this one gets totally boned, which would be accomplished with space stations and shuttling and terraforming.

Pricks at Risk.




Piece done for an 80's Toy themed show for the Autumn Society. All my favorite jerk dudes from my collection, who were all trying to take over a world, in some regard, succeeding the only way they were gonna. What a bunch of turds. Seriously? Buzz Saw arms? Ridic.
