"Lying on the Sidewalk" A collection of Short stories written by Scott Radnidge just hit the bookshelves. Published by Anteism and available on their website. I illustrated the book. A nice read, look for more from this author and publisher. Word.
Just wanted to post this tee design that I made for our Woodpile Collective "knew" show that went down at the end of 09. When I open my t-shirt drawer and peer into it's depths...this is
the one that calls to me. Simple, yet the WTF factor is a 10.
Artist series custom Oakley sunglasses. Made mine look like worm eaten driftwood. Turned out pretty good. I have a difficult time with the whole "take commercial product A. and turn it into art object B." I usually dread working on this kind of thing, but this one was fun...and El Kartel is the shit!
My DH2.3 board is now up and online over at http://www.ridesnowboards.com/ The board itself isn't available until Dec.1st, but the promo has begun. Really stoked on how it turned out, can't wait to see the real deal. Super limited Edition of 345.
Some of you may know that I paint in the Woodpile Collective...but I'll bet many of you didn't know that the Woodpile Collective also has an audio based counterpart known as "Creator of the Creator". We just had a recording session/retreat to our lab cabin on the coast. Collective friend and photographer Ben Moore came out to partake in the festivities and shoot some film over the weekend. Damn that was fun. Look out for the new album this spring "Caves & Claws".
I'm excited to be an honourary "Vancouverite" as I am a part of the "Drawing on Vancouver" show at Walrus in...Vancouver. Curated by Randy Laybourne, looks like a great show with a host of fine artists. Looking forward to checking it out in person. Here are some more pics of the setup and opening over at Look Forward to the Past.
My silkscreened poster for the Final Fantasy show ( which is a part of the Rifflandia Concert series ), printed by Joey over at Olio. Nice Job! Check out the photos of the process over at Anteism.com
The good folks at Scum Creative Labs and the Rifflandia Music Festival asked me to remix their Rifflandia Logo ( see icosahedron ) for their limited release "Rifflandabrau" Pilsner with Phillips Brewing Company. Specially Brewed for their Festival, I cranked the dial to "Skullquake" with my interpretation. Keep an eye out for the finished label and enjoy a cold Rifflandabrau at the Fest.
"How To" Harry is a character that I draw for Transworld Surf magazine. He usually learns the hard way and uses his lack of common sense to entertain and educate those who seek his advice.
There is an interview with me on SanFrancisco's Fecal Face Dot Com. Look in the right hand margin and scroll down. It's in the Mini-Interviews section. http://www.fecalface.com/
