I’ve been slammed. Been drawing, painting, parenting, painting, parenting and sleeping when I can. My kid just recently turned two, which is both awesome and exhausting. Ginger and I have a fun little online mini chronicle of our new lives as parents that we’ve had going for about a year, which currently has a contest going for a free comic strip. If you’re interested in how it’s going, head on over to my OTHER website: Noodleknobs.com.

The show is entitled “I Want my Music Video Art Show”, the theme being pretty self-evident right there in the title. This awesome show, curated by the fantastic Chris Marrs Piliero and David McDowell, will feature several amazing artists, each picking one of their favorite music videos to pay tribute in his or her respective art style.
I chose “Land of Confusion” by Genesis, mostly because it scared the hell out of my as a child. I’d seen the video countless times and the Spitting Image puppets had an amazingly disturbing quality of grotesqueness that was (and is) beautiful in its own unique way. Plus, a little bit of political satire for a video that’s still pretty relevant even today.

The show is at Gallery Meltdown, in Hollywood. They show opens this Friday, October 7th, and runs until October 20th. Many of the artists (including myself) will be in attendance, and it promises to be a fantastic show. Here’s a little bit of early press so far. For full details, click here. Hope to see you there!
Well, the official limited edition 76 run of the Wisdom of the Llama painting have come and gone.
But there’s still some good news. For those who were just dying to get their hands on a print, but couldn’t get it together in time, there’s one last chance. I currently have six artists’ proofs left, for your purchasing pleasure. These are hand signed, but unnumbered, as they are part of my personal proof collection. These are EXTREMELY limited, and should go fast. Each print is $76.00. As an added bonus, they’re still part of the September Sale for a few more days, and subject to the same promo code. Hurry to the store, and get them while they last!
