So long, 2009!

Happy New Year! Here's hoping 2010 won't suck quite as much as 2009 did. . .

On a random side note, I have exactly the same number of posts this year as I did last year. Not quite one for every day, but not too terrible either =).

Take care, see you all on the other side!

12 30 09 WIP - watercolor and gouache on paper

It was good to head home and hang with the family. Didn't get too much drawing done, but definitely got a lot of eating done!

Got back into SF last night, so trying to get some painting done before work starts up again.

Hope everyone's having a great holiday!

Big Doodle WIP - ink on mat board

The show went off great, thank you to everyone who braved the crappy weather to check out the art! Lots of fun, and then the rest of the weekend was just very nice and relaxing.

I started working on a really big doodle, here's a piece of it here... this will be on the scale of the Work Graffiti piece, so should be fun =).

Will be posting more pictures as it progresses

Paper Pushers 2009 catalog

It's been a good weekend! I finished framing everything as the sun was coming up on Saturday morning -- then promptly passed out for a few hours.

Got some coffee, shipped some prints out (they're selling well! =) and stopped by Gallery 1988 SF to drop off the pieces. There's one more piece of exciting news, but it will have to wait a few more days...

In the meantime, here are the pieces I'll be showing at Gallery1998 SF's 2009 Paper Pushers show. The opening will be Friday, December 11, details are here.

Awesome!

In the midst of framing and documenting everything for the drop off date tomorrow -- doesn't look like I'm going to sleep tonight =P. But yes, somehow in the midst of everything I managed to finish off the series of cephalopods...

They mutated rather quickly, ha.

But hopefully the next post will be of everything framed and ready to go!

Hi all, hope everyone's having a great winter thus far! Three chunks of news for you all today.

Shows
I have three shows coming up in the next couple weeks... all in San Francisco, so if you're in the area it'd be great to see you!


"Seussian Yellow" - One of the new pieces I'll be showing at "Paper Pushers" next week.

Friday, December 4th - "For the City" at Lower Haters. Annual holiday sale, tons of great artists will be showing their work. See show details here.

Saturday, December 5th - "Printed Matter 7" at Giant Robot SF. I'll be selling my brand new limited edition prints here! See show details here.

Friday, December 11th - "Paper Pushers" at Gallery 1988 SF. This will be my last biggish show of the year, I'll be showing ten new pieces. See show details here. I'll be sending out a reminder email closer to the show with a preview of my work.

Prints
My last run of limited edition prints were of "The Chase." That run is officially sold out and closed, but never fear... You may remember that I asked you to take part in a poll a while back. Well, I've taken in the results, and am happy to announce that I have three new limited edition prints available!
Introducing three new limited edition prints - "Bloom", "Raspberry Triptych", and "Blue Meeting". There will be one hundred of each made. My favorite print shop SF Electric Works really outdid themselves this time - the colors are incredibly vibrant, and the archival watercolor paper feels and looks wonderful.



These prints are available for sale immediately! "Bloom" for $80, "Raspberry Triptych" for $80, and "Blue Meeting" for $60. Prices do not include shipping and handling ($15 in US, more if elsewhere). If interested, please email me with the name of the print you'd like to purchase in the subject line. See more details here.


Skins
The last piece of news is that Gelaskins has just added my "Bloom" piece to their catalog of featured artist skins. This is my fourth piece with them, and I'm pretty excited to see how it will do. Take a look - you can have this artwork (as well as the artwork of many, many talented artists) on your phone, iPod, laptop, gaming device, even a Rock Band guitar!



And that's about it folks. Thanks for bearing with me, and I hope you all have a great day!
