Dunegrass

I haven't posted anything new on here for quite some time, and since I had to have this one mastered for tomorrow, i might as well post it for your viewing pleasure. This will be in a run of 20 numbered prints, available sunday at dunegrass. this was the painting that i created their new logo from, and i figured I would release a couple prints from the original painting. This piece was live painted at ashley's in ann arbor, originally 2x4' on panel.

updates soon- i promise

I have been painting way more than i've been online! Someone manage my pages, please!! haha- i have loads of new work- and tons of new shows. Land of Nod was amazing- I was fortunate to paint with a plethora of AMAZING acts, and meet soo many amazing people. I love you all. I'd start mastering photos and uploading, but alas, i must fix/buy/find my gear in preparation for Lazersword tomorrow (with J Spliff,20ccs, Jaws That Bite & Nameless Face) and I will be driving directly from that show off to GLCC Music Festival in Lacota. I should probably find out where Lacota is. Ahh.. Time is limited, money is scarce, but life is so good.

Pre-LandOfNod photos

the awesome staff at Land of Nod had me come out and do some artwork out on the grounds while things are still getting set up. and they even took some photos:

got 2 bucks?


All i'm trying to do is gather up the pieces from my righteous rapmaster rocketship so I can get off of this forsaken planet. A phone rings somewhere. Santa’s been carelessly flying around in his jetpack, scattering these colorful boxes around. There’s something not right about that. I like them for the most part. Rocket skates, a slingshot. They’re useful, especially with all of the natives around. Earthlings are everywhere. A phone rings again. Lil devils, lil cupids, they’re up to no good. And don’t even get me started on that cackling proctologist. There is a handful of Earthlings that I can stomach. Santa’s alright in my book, and so are those hula girls, mmm. A phone rings loudly. And this guy’s alright. The carrotman. Kinda creepy, but he’s the only one I know that can guess the contents of any box. Pretty handy to know if you’re about to get electrocuted, or get a new pair of spring shoes.
