I have been working with jason and matthew on a small animation that should be up and on the site and the world wide web by the beginning of August. We worked so well together on the truth.org campaign it seemed like a good idea for us to push our luck and do a short fun project. Here is an image from the illustration.

Tatiana Stussy Shirt

Thu, 19 Jun 2008 00:06:00 -0700

Stussy has commissioned a R.I.P. Tatiana teeshirt design to honor the memory of the tiger slaughtered at the SF Zoo. I know a human life was lost and that is terrible (and avoidable). However, there are a bunch of people that feel saddened by the death of the tiger. So this one is for you! Here is a mock up of the shirt and there will be shots of actual people wearing them coming soon. A special thanks to David Rush at Stussy SF for the opportunity to collaborate with some cool people.

Benefit Show

Tue, 17 Jun 2008 00:06:00 -0700

Kelly and I donated artwork to a benefit show being held in Los Angeles on July 5th. I have attached the specifics of the show/silent auction below. There are a bunch of great artists involved in this benefit so please come out and support the show. Please read on: It is with a deep and profound sadness tempered with gratitude and pride that we would like to announce "How Well Do You Remember?", a retrospective of the works of Phoebe Stewart Washer. Phoebe was at the beginning of a very promising career when her life was cut short by a tragic accident. She was a gifted, essentially self-taught artist whose works show a depth of feeling and spirit rare in someone so young. We are grateful and proud to have the opportunity to showcase her work in a show at the POVevolving Gallery in Los Angeles. The show will feature a number of paintings and sculptures by Phoebe Stewart Washer. In addition, we have invited a number of artist friends including Attaboy, Huck G, Will Smith, Todd Barricklow, Leigh Barbier, David Best, Michael Garlington, Phoebe's special protege Stella Brown and many others to create pieces specifically to benefit the newly formed Phoebe Washer Foundation for the Arts. Limited Editions prints of some of Phoebe's 'key' pieces, including 'How Well Do You Remember' and 'From Above,' will be released at the show and will be available via POVeditions.com thereafter. The Details: "Phoebe Washer - How Well Do You Remember?" July 5th - 30th, 2008 Opening Reception: Saturday July 5th, 7-11pm. POVevolving : Gallery & Print Studio 939 Chung King Road Los Angeles, CA 90012

SF Gate Interview

Kelly and I were interviewed by Matt Petty at the Chronicle about our collaboration work. I sound a bit like a zombie because it was five days before the Circus! opening. At any rate, if you want to hear Kelly and myself expound on why we like to work together and why we dig each other's stuff then go here

Drawing With Deth

Sat, 14 Jun 2008 00:06:00 -0700

Hey there, I had a long week of dental appointments, blood tests, and acupuncture needles... But it wasn't all fun & games. I met up with Deth P Sun at his home that he shares with his talented fiance Marci Washington. The purpose of our momentous meeting was to begin a collaboration project that we hope will be awesome enough for a collaborative show curated by Tiny Showcase. Anyways, we had a lot of fun and came up with some awesome sketches. I look forward to further collaborations with the Deth.

Commissions

Mon, 02 Jun 2008 00:06:00 -0700

I am working on a few different commissions right now and things are starting to come along. Right now, I am working on a triptych for the offices of kni. I am building up layers with some stains (got some in my eye today)(ow) and I really like how it's coming along.
