Working on some ideas, getting some interviews together for a possible Magazine.
I am really excited about it.

Also I have a bunch of sketches I am inking and getting ready.
Probably in the next day or so, more deets on the magazine and the rest of my colorado sketches.

Hate fuck next to mai's

Not sure where to put this so I will put it here.
So it feels pretty strange to me when I encounter my favorite wheatpaster's/ favorite tagging crews/ stickerbomber/ leave their tracks and call signs in the form of stickers/ markings/ handstyles in your favorite place to go for thai food, starbucks in the burbs, gas stations, etc...

I just think it is strange that these people who create amazing art illegally and disappear and appear like Batman, leave their call signals in such intimate places for me such as where I choose to take my girlfriend to eat, where I pee.

I will start documenting these encounters.
Plus it will be so much easier once I have the nikon d40x I have asked my parents to give me for my birthday on wednesday. aka 24hrs from now.

Wood Textures



I am experimenting with textures, inking methods.
These are both photoshop.
I started silkscreening some of the "angel of death" aka "Virgin de guadelupe/birdskull"
It was raining so I used a light bulb and I dont think I got the photo emulsion right...

The first one is a homepage for my father for his birthday on the 13th.

Bird of Prey

Sitting in my room, cropping and working on some designs.
Then I heard something drop on my windowsill and scratch at my window.
I got excited because I thought it was a squirrel.
It was this bird. I appreciate that we both had a "OMFG" face.
It flew away and came back. Here is a photo. and a video soon.

Techniclick II's RIP

So it is pretty much official... The Techniclick II has been replaced by the III.
This sucks. It was always easy to find them in walgreens...or pretty much everywhere.
I am still deciding on the techniclick III..

PS you will be missed.

Owl Sketch in Photoshop

Photoshopped this sketch.
Might come out better if I scan in the image first.
I still have some touching up to do around the left wing, tail and crown,
In general I really dig the colors on the right wing.
