“Prayer” is my contribution to The Kentucky Struts’ year long project Year of the Horse. A band based out of Cold Spring, Kentucky, The Kentucky Struts released one song a month in 2011 along with artwork created by an artist’s interpretation of that song. I was paired with December’s song “Prayer”, and am very honored to be a part of such an inspiring project.
Be sure to check out Year of the Horse on their website and pick up a copy of their album. Not only do you get an excellent collection of songs and feel good about supporting local music, but you’ll also be happy to know that your purchase helps horse rescue as a portion of the sales go to Speak Up For Horses.

Blast Off! is my latest print and I’m using Kickstarter to help launch the project. If you’re not familiar with Kickstarter, it is a site that uses a pledge system to help fund creative projects. Artists set a goal and use different levels of incentives to help reach that goal. If you have never checked it out, be sure to do so. Although be careful, it will suck you in with loads of great projects.
Actually based on a painting I created for a friend, I will be printing a boy version and a girl version of “Blast Off!”. Each print will be 7 colors with one of the colors being glow in the dark ink. So when when you turn off the lights, you’ll have these guys hanging there keeping you company. Both of these prints will measure 15×19 and will be screenprinted by hand on Coventry Rag 290 gsm 100% cotton paper. As you can tell with the amount of colors, this is my most ambitious print yet and this is why I’m using Kickstarter almost like a pre-release. All the money will go directly to printing this edition, ink, paper, films and late night tacos.
One of the great things about any Kickstarter campaign besides that good feeling you get from supporting a project, is all the incentives. I’ve tried to offer a bunch of great incentives for this project as a thank you. You can check them out below and check out “Blast Off!” on Kickstarter here.

I recently had the opportunity to collaborate with Keith Neltner on a new Cake poster that announces their June 10 concert in Mesa, Arizona with guests Calexico. We had a great time working with Cake on this and are very proud with how it turned out.
The idea behind this poster is mutual respect and harmony. Here, we see the cactus wren, which is the Arizona state bird, sitting on the ridge-nosed rattlesnake, the state reptile. The graphic background is a representation of the Arizona state flag.
The poster is a 15″ x 22″, four color screenprint on Conventry Rag 290 and signed by both Keith and myself. This is an edition of 75. We have a very limited 20 of these available in the store.

On Thursday, February 10, I will be releasing my second print in collaboration with the BLDG called “Fox”. This 22×15 5 color screenprint is printed on Coventry Rag 290 gsm 100% cotton and has a signed and numbered edition of 55. Mike at the BLDG once again did an excellent job printing these even adding a bit of varnish to the snow.
Below are a few process shots as well as a few detailed pics of the final print. I also included two very early sketches to show a bit of my process. I typically do a bunch of these types of sketches before landing on any one particular version. You can see that my final fox kind of became a mix between the two. I liked how graphic the first sketch was but liked the playfulness of the second and wanted to bring that energy into the final piece.
