excellent stuff people! Nef! The eyes and mouth on the face you posted are dope! That is the hardest stuff to draw or paint well! Good Job!

Your shit's looking real cool too genteel. Like if Peter Max was not a hippie and instead listened to too much Naked City and Xiu Xiu.....

Antagony, that image reminds me of a modern Pettibon

Would one of you be interested in doing a mixtape artwork for me? The theme of the tape is: CANDY

Feel free to do what you want in regards to the imagery. It should be standard cassette tape inlay card size and your artwork can appear on one or both sides......don't forget to sign it!

Post it here so I can print it. The tape I'm making is going to someone in Canada. PM me your mailing address and I will make two mixes and mail one to you.

thanks Rob!

Got some stuff on show in London at the moment and a group show coming up next month. The images on my page are a bit lo-res, but thems the brakes.

I personally still don't know what to make of my own sketches and doodles but I see this comparison as a great honor, thank you :)

I've been planning to direct a short film for some time now. My problem is that I still haven't come up with a coherent plot, I just have some vague ideas. I really have to start this fucker soon though, I somehow feel obliged to do this. Right now all I have are some establishing shots from my recent trip to New York, which serve as a display of the visual potential of my rather cheap equipment (I'm trying to get the best out of what I have).

 

I like the people shit in yr portfolio. Nice to see that you've got your art going on. How are things in the art world?

Thanks, I don't really know how things are in the art world, I've been out of it for so long and am only just starting to venture back in.

a general tip/sorta.
i think that if you want to have a vibrant red, you should have a (dried) yellow layer underneeth first.

T&B, the art world is as caustic and cloying as ever. get your armor on my man!

In London the art world is mostly about money. Fuck being caustic or cloying.

Well, I do want to get paid, but I guess I'll find out how far I'm prepared to go to get that cash.

I have an EPs worth of new music, and if I finally get my ass motivated before the end of the summer I can get it recorded with this new band I've been jamming with. Its some really great shit, a culmination of everything I've been doing for the past ten years evolved in a natural progression. Yet, the question is sincerely if..

Best Of Luck. DO IT and do it TO IT
