Capitalism Killed Us Both

January 29, 2011

Tesla inspired skateboard piece.  If it wasn’t for capitalist J. P. Morgan being such a money crazed jerk Nikola Tesla would have successfully completed his experiments in harnessing and wirelessly transmitting free energy. Unfortunately, because you couldn’t make money off of people for freely transmitted energy, Morgan pulled funding just days before Tesla could run his first large scale experiment.   Later in his life, it was said that Tesla could be found in the park talking with pigeons.

I generally dislike pigeons.

Newalbumwork!!!

November 16, 2010

Long time pal and “A/V Kids” collaborator Hunter Boyd is in a magical brand new band who go by the moniker Lawless Carver.  They are dropping a self titled ep which I had the pleasure to do the artwork and layout for!



I took all the photos used in these digital collages from trips to colorado, washington d.c. and the toledo zoo.

The Lawless Carver ep will be dropping at their show at Mr. Mike’s Lounge in Ypsilanti on friday the 19th of this month. Scope it out, it’s pretty fantastic.

Hand pulled t-shirts! These designs as seen modeled by Poz here, have been featured at The Golden Flamingos fashion show at Activesite in Grand Rapids, Michigan and in my solo show “You, Me and Equity make Three” at Nickelodeon Animation Studios in Burbank, California.

They are printed on Gildan ultra cotton t-shirts.

Shirts are available in limited sizes while supplies last for $12 plus what ever it costs to mail, unless you live in the Metro Grand Rapids or Metro Detroit, Michigan areas.

Holland, 1945

January 9, 2010

Over Christmas, I was commissioned to interpret a Neutral Milk Hotel song known as “Holland, 1945″.  The goal was to focus specifically on their favorite lyrics that went like this:

“Now she’s a little boy in Spain
Playing pianos filled with flames
On empty rings around the sun
All sing to say my dream has come”

I recently did a batch of 27 limited edition blocks as a special little something for my friends in the band The Hard Promises to give away in support of their record release show.

Here’s a sneak peek at The Hard Promises debut album cover art I just finished, entitled “One True Heart Beat”.

I’m so pumped about this album that I’m doing a special set of editions to compliment the album and any one who picks up a copy of “One True Heart Beat” will be able to walk away with one of my edition blocks!  Woot Woot!!!

They’re some high flying work machines, baby!!!
