What do you see in the dark? 6” x 8” Pen & Ink on Bristol

This piece (from which I’m still cross-eyed due to all the stippling) will be on display briefly this weekend at FOE in Northampton as part of a show of work inspired by Rex, the newest album from Dorian.

The show opens Saturday night at 6pm and will feature Dorian playing an acoustic set from the new album as well as works from amazing people like: 64 colors, Tim Senecal, Chloe Vanessa, Rick Beaupre, Dedleg and many more.

A friend asked me how to get started doodling. Here’s my advice:

Get a piece of paper
Get a pencil
Draw something
Stop giving a flying fuck what it looks like

I don’t think I could be happier with the way this guy turned out.

His name is Chad, and he’s the mascot for this great Kickstarter project to develop a set of field guides on research and best practices for designing voting and ballot systems that help insure people vote for the things they intend to.

Please take some time and check it out!

I just couldn’t wait any longer to post my holiday card this year.

What’s Santa so shocked about? Fair warning, it’s probably not kid-appropriate.

Sneak peek of a holiday card I’ll be sending out and posting online later this month. It’s not great but, it’s not terrible for my first time coloring anything in 10 years and my first time ever painting digitally. It’s killing me not to post the whole thing, but I want to make sure the people who I’ll be mailing copies to get a chance to see them first.
