I'll be having a solo show at Public Gallery in SF running for about four weeks. The opening is July 1st 7:30-10:30. I'll have more info soon and when I do I'll be sure to post it.

I've also been invited to be a part of the Sketchtravel project. Check it out right here.

Happy 2010 everyone. To kick off the new year I thought I'd do a few small updates on the site for everyone's viewing pleasure. I'll soon have most of my work set up to sell as prints and hopefully within the next few months I'll really get started on making a book out of my sketchbooks.

I've posted new portraits on the portraits page as well as new sketchbook pages. I have a lot of faith that 2010 will be a banner year so here's to progress! Cheers!

Thanks again and check the blog for more up to date information, cheers!

Four new works for Gama-Go up in the Illustration/Gama-Go folder. I'm currently working on new projects for my next show Banal Obsession @666 Gallery on September 18th. New work from California Magazine coming later in the year as well. I still have a few prints from the In Transit show as well as originals for sale. All work is framed and ready to hang on your wall. Cheers everyone.

The entire In Transit catalog is finally up Here .

The show at Cafe Royale is coming soon as well as new shirts from Gama-Go. All work will soon be on the site for everyone to see. I'm also busy with editorial work for a soon to be disclosed client. This is going to be a great few weeks for all my projects. I hope to see you all at the show on August 6th. Cheers!

I'm currently working on two solo shows as well as designs for Gama-Go. The first show is at Gallery Royale beginning August and running through the month. Opening reception will be August 6th.
The second will be at 666 Gallery in September, the ending is TBA at the moment. Opening reception is Friday September 18th.
The works presented at the shows will be extensions of my sketchbook work. I've chosen the theme name "In Transit" for the first show as it encompasses the work I do in my sketchbooks whilst on the move from place to place. Though the work has been pulled form the pages of old tattered books the intimacy of the work stays true to the original meaning of a sketchbook. I hope to see everyone there and I'll keep the updates coming as the news pours in. Cheers!

New work in the ©Gama-Go folder! Check out the shirt designs and follow the links to the designs you like and buy them right now. I'm happy to say they are all available through the Gama-Go website HERE!

New robot for your viewing pleasure in the Sketchbook Fever section. Stay tuned because sometime after the holidays I'll have some big news to share. The reason for my lack of posts on Banal Obsession and lack of new work on here will soon be revealed. Thanks for all the support.

New digital fun on the old blag. I'm working on some bigger pieces which should be done within the next few weeks. I'll post them as soon as I finish. I'm getting into some touchy subjects too so, I think I'll have to be very careful about the final products. I'm still stoked though, and thanks to everyone for stopping by.

Enjoy a new work in the Illustrative folder and on my blag. More sketchbook work is on its way. Thanks for all the support.

I've added a couple more images from my sketchbook onto my blog. I hope you enjoy them and I'll try to keep posting regularly so These old images don't get stale. Thanks for checking.
