beetle carcases

I noticed this about a month ago, but there was an infestation of beetles in the upstairs of my house. They roam freely wherever they want and they especially enjoy the hallway and the bathroom. Well, I thought they had left but it looks like they are back. I just found 2 dead beetles in my pack of acrylic paints and then I counted two in the hall and 3 in the bathroom, including a dead beetle on the floor.

What the hell is going on! I am being spied on by little black bugs... man I sound like a nut. I am going to start collecting their dead carcases...maybe for some weird art project.

My art is the cover of Boise Weekly this week!

yeah! Check it out. This looks cooler than in person, I will tell you that much. My favorite part of this drawing is the boat. It was so much fun to draw.


ALSO, I have an art show coming up! It is a collective of international illustrators! So, if you are in Portland in September any time, come to the Reading Frenzy and check out the art. The artists are great and I have no idea how I got the opportunity to be apart of such an amazing group. Really, my work is nothing compared to theirs.

Sorry for all of the artwork...

I am on a roll. So, I decided to kind of elaborate and make a character that was first based off of doodles, then off of a flyer I recently made. Here it is! So bright and happy and fun. I want to eat her hair.

Awesome Opossum Flyers- what has been created so far.

Here are the flyers Sean and I have made together as the team Awesome Opossum Flyers. We are making black and white posters for The Artistery in Portland, OR. It all started with our first flyer for a show at a different venue. Sean draws the main image, and I add onto it and add text and alter the image however I see fit.
This is a nice way of keeping the same style, which is the point of our flyers, to have the same style with each one.

to the left is our first official artwork, to the right is our most recent.
