"Year of the Snake" @Giant Robot + "Portrait Show" @Pony Club!

 It's been a busy winter! Here's more:

 I have a piece in Giant Robot's upcoming February show "Year of the Snake" which opens this Saturday! (Facebook event here) I did an inked and painted piece on 8" x 16" wood panel, below is a preview of what I worked on for the show.

I also have a piece in Pony Club Gallery's upcoming "Portrait Show"! My studio mate Aya and I got paired up to do portraits of each other and we had fun with it. :)

Here's a photo studio mate Tory took of me and Aya painting the other's portrait.

Here are the results!

"Creatures of Ghost Island" at Allegory Gallery.

I have a show with lots of new paintings at Allegory Gallery which opens this Friday and will run throughout the month of February. The show will feature 10 new pieces, 8 watercolor/acrylic/inked pieces and 2 small silkscreened prints. The piece shown above "Creatures of Ghost Island" is the large piece that ties everything together. The other medium-small pieces depict scenes and characters that take place and exist on this island. I plan on updating my website soon with all the new things I've done this past year and I will also include these new works. In the mean time, here are some process photos that were taken over the past 2 months (via my instagram)

"Witch", "Don't Be Scared", "Friends, Me and You"

In progress, "Take Me There (Ghost Wolf)"

"Mushroom Forest"

Another ghost piece in progress.

Magic Show + Post-it Show at Giant Robot

Hey all!

Two things coming up. I have a piece in "Magic Show" which opens this Friday at LaunchPad in Brooklyn, NY! The opening reception is also a fundraising effort to benefit the space, so if you're in Brooklyn, come out for some home brewed beer and visual performances, including a magic show! Tickets are sliding scale and can be purchased here.

It's that time of the year again! If you are in LA, this is your chance to buy affordable post-it art from your favorite cartoonist/illustrator/artist. Over 200 people participating in this year's Post-it Show 8 at Giant Robot! If I was there I would totally go but I won't be in LA until February, stay tuned for those details in a future post!

some post-its!

more post-its!

BCGF!!!

 

I'll be at Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Fest this weekend in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY! BCGF marks my last show of 2012, and I've already started planning my next year, so stay tuned for that news. 

 

Find me downstairs where I'll have on my table the last batch of Nature Nurture zines plus a bunch of prints. I'm at table D20, next to Nobrow Press table. This is one of the more highly anticipated festivals of the year and I'm so excited!!
