UNITED - Artist Network

2011-07-20T23:40:00.000-07:00

So I've been busy not posting anything to this for the last few months due to continually trying to fix my motorcycle, watching Commando on Netflix, and petting my cat. I did finally get the chance to work on some new pieces for a soon to launch brand called United Artist Network. You can get yours soon at a fine streetwear retailer in your area...

Drawings?

2011-01-18T22:48:00.000-08:00

Working on a few pieces for friends and an upcoming show in the works. The next couple of months should be a fiesta. Plus, I added in a public service announcement regarding a book I tried to read. You're welcome. The future looks bright.

No Shows...No Posts

2010-12-30T16:31:00.000-08:00

Sorry everyone, I've been lame at updating this lately. I did a show a few weeks back but haven't really done any artwork for a while, I guess I'm taking a little hiatus. In unrelated art news, I've been hanging out in the mancave cleaning up and unsuccessfully thinking of new things to work on. Of course, anytime bike work is being done Krokus must be playing in the background. Duh.

Throw Sam A Bone

2010-12-08T13:01:00.000-08:00

Tomorrow night I'll have a few pieces up with some other great artists for a show at Gallery AKA in North Park. The event is a benefit to sponsor the cancer treatment for Samson, the Disconnected Salon mascot and friend who will be racking up some spendy vet bills soon. Come out and buy a piece and rack up some Karma for yourself because you need it. Santa knows.

Java Earth Tomorrow Night

2010-11-02T22:59:00.000-07:00

Short Notice Alertmentness: Doing a little showing tomorrow night down in PB at Java Earth. 7pm til sometime later in the night. It's a school night but don't be scared.

Sezio/WLC Show

2010-10-17T20:48:00.000-07:00

Here are some pics that I poached from the good folks at We Love Creativity until I post some of my own. The set-up was rad and Sezio did another tasty set-up as usual. I'm new to the charity gig so I definitely didn't get valet for the Tacoma in order to let the finer vehicles get taken care of. I did, however, eat more food than the average 3 attendees.

Fruit of Something

2010-10-11T19:52:00.002-07:00

So I'm adding some pieces into an upcoming show with a lot of artists that I really like. Plus, somehow the event involves food so it pretty much has everthing i enjoy involved in it except for 80's action movies, free burritos and my cat. Should be a good time. Here's a little preview of some of the pieces I'm working on.vIf you're puzzled by the resentment theme in them, don't be. I just somehow think it's funny if a pink blob has a sense of entitlement...I'm probably the only one who thinks this is somehow clever so let me believe it is. And yes...those bottom ones are motivational fridge magnets. You're welcome.

Panels Live Show Video

2010-09-25T00:36:00.001-07:00

The Panels show was awesome, super fun. I learned a hard lesson about painting the lower portion of the wall...don't do it. I feel like I did squats for 5 hours and it hurt to stand the next 3 days. All that said, the finished product was rad and all of the other artists are amazing guys.

Barometer of Radness

2010-09-19T15:00:00.000-07:00

I made some prints of this piece to sell at the Electric show at Voyeur a long while back. They are all individually hand pressed and I have 15 prints left. These are $25 each so hit me up if you want one and I will snail mail it to you in a special box that I most likely found in my garage.

2010-09-14T15:53:00.000-07:00

Come out on Saturday night and watch cool people do art on a wall and drink a beer. That's pretty much the best description I can come up with for this event. It will be really good, I promise. Proceeds benefit Invisible Children, a very worthy cause. http://www.invisiblechildren.com/

I'll be there drawing unintellible characters somewhere. Join me. You can sign up for the guest list here and hosted bar here: http://welovecreativity.com/list

Boards for Sk8tology Show

2010-07-28T18:17:00.000-07:00

Just finished these two and almost died from epoxy fumes in the process.

The first deck has actual vintage 1953 news clippings beneath the epoxy coating. And yes, this guy prefers riding 6 wheels instead of those little skateboard things the kids ride these days. Get over it. Rollerblades and HTML coding are the future. Better to deal with it now than end up like Arnold in Total Recall.

Beard of the Future

2010-07-07T16:28:00.000-07:00

Our good friends the Bravos are having a little girl in the near future and asked some friends to do some artwork for her room (awesome idea that I will admit to potentially steal in the future). Aaron has facial hair that makes everyone else feel like they are still 14 (and looks good all the while) so we thought this illustration would be fitting. Kelli did the arty stuff and I did the words. We are a married team, sort of like the A-team but she does all the work and nothing explodes.
You can check out Bravo's artwork here (Chivo): http://www.mybrowncoat.com/

A new deck I just finished for my buddy Vince. He goes hard like Free Willy so I wanted his shred-stick to match.

Bloom Show Recap

2010-05-26T07:31:00.003-07:00

Super fun, even despite the fact that I ate too much dairy on the cheese plate I ordered and some guy outside on the street tried to sell me his rap mixtape on two seperate occasions while I asked repeatedly for directions to a 7-11. Everyone's work at this show was genius and the band was on point. I can't believe that the singer could hold notes that long, she was blowing my mind...and later my ears after two hours. It was a great night all around.

Party Faces

2010-05-20T00:08:00.001-07:00

Procrastination 101 - Stay up late and work on stuff the night before it's due. I could teach that class at Yale. Here's a peak at what I'm working on for the Bloom show tomorrow night. In related news...one sentence later I realize I can't even spell "peek" correctly. It's going to be super fun. I'm going to be a coffee robot boy tomorrow for sure. See you all there except for all you people staying home to watch the Office...that is permitted.

What Would Kenny Do?

2010-05-12T23:36:00.000-07:00

It's a fair question.. I think he'd pretty much bring the party to my garage.

Garage Party

2010-05-02T22:26:00.001-07:00

I spent the day riding my bike...coming back to the garage...procrastinating...then riding my bike again...then reading...then procrastinating...then checking the surf...then listening to ac/dc in the garage...then finally drawing (which was my original plan all along). From the events listed above I clearly have no life. It was an amazing Sunday. Looking forward to the Syrah show coming up in a few weeks.

Tasty New Show

2010-04-14T16:41:00.001-07:00

Good friends, Gooder artists. Should be the real deal. Plus, Syrah is super legit. I'll have some new stuff up for you to ponder and such. Come down and earn some extra friend points that can be redeemed for a can of PBR in my garage.

You Know This Guy

2010-03-22T19:24:00.001-07:00

He smokes Marlboro reds and races dune buggys on week day nights with his friends from high school. Also can be seen playing dice behind the local Chilis with the line cooks or actually eating any breakfast taquito from 7-11 with milk on a hot day.

Acrylic, Marker, Tons and tons of stain. 2x4 $100

Eat Your Heart Out Carl Weathers

2010-03-22T18:58:00.003-07:00

Everyone knows Arnold was the true hero in Predator (which is totally awesome). If you haven't seen Predator, stop reading this posting. Rambo wasn't shabby either, although the second one was even more awesome.

This is a piece I did for the last show at Voyeur which was a super fun show with great local artists and friends. Yes, I found a laserdisc (see also: "before dvd was created" in google search) for both the Predator and Rambo at a local record shop. It was destiny, I needed to create a piece that reflected the glory of these films (once again, on laserdisc). Although most people didn't get this one at the show (google images of standard clubbers at Voyeur to find out why), it is my favorite one to date....which probably shows just how serious my art career is considering it took me 30 minutes to make.

Don't fight the power, embrace it.

Pics from the Sezio Boat House Show

2010-02-19T07:51:00.001-08:00

So...a bunch of really rad artists painted the inside of this house last week and my wife was one of them. She did a piece with a girl in a furry hat that was floating. It was pretty killer. Plus, it looked like real art. I found a way to cheapen things by jamming a lurking ghost in the corner of the wall wearing a toupee. Yes, my imagination is that limited. Yes, it was fun.

More pics available at http://www.sezio.org/

Electric Show - Voyeur

2010-02-14T17:27:00.002-08:00

Kaboom. It's happening. I'm in a new show with a bunch of my friends who happen to be killer SD artists in a couple weeks. Come down and hang out with everyone at Voyeur. Killer-diller-whale.

Boat House Send-off

2010-02-11T17:06:00.001-08:00

Pretty much the coolest idea ever...moving out?...have a bunch of random artists do every square inch of wall with whatever they want before the bank takes over. Sezio keeps doing really sweet stuff, and they alwasy pull really awesome talent together. I got to crash the party and help my wife Kelli do some work on a back wall where she did a large piece. Totally worth checking out tomorrow night, this show will be really awesome.

Check out the deets on the Sezio site.

Not getting a raise this year...

2010-01-26T23:32:00.000-08:00

The Rise of Abnormal

2010-01-18T19:22:00.000-08:00

Abnormal party. It's pretty much just a zine full of strange pics that Joel Evey, myself, and good friends compiled from our sketchbooks. And from the looks of our sketchbooks...we need to get lives.

Revo Show Sunday Night

2010-01-15T16:38:00.006-08:00

The Revo Art Show to Benefit Street Angels (http://www.streetangelsministry.com/) was totally rad. I was pumped to see so many people pack the place out on a Sunday night considering most of us are watching bad VHI shows and eating Mexican leftovers on an average Sunday night. I sold a few pieces and got to show some newer stuff which was also sweet.
Check out the pics from the event and make sure to check out the RSD website for more to come.
*Bonus - check out the last pic to see me sweating for no apparent reason. Not sure why I'm highlighting this...

Marriage

2010-01-11T17:00:00.003-08:00

I recently got married and we had photo booth at the wedding. Then I pilfered this montage from my wife's blog. It's artsy and I like it so I think that makes it ok.

If you live in North Park...

2010-01-11T16:58:00.003-08:00

Guess what I got for my wedding gift this year? A fixed gear. Hypocritical award '09 goes to me. In my defence I don't own a Grizzly Bear album nor do I like Colt 45. I'll prepare a speech soon.

Bondi - Sunday Night

2010-01-05T14:10:00.002-08:00

What are you doing Sunday night? Nothing, because no one has ever had plans on a Sunday night in the history of life. If this is you as well, come downtown and help support a few great organizations at a show this weekend. I'll have some pieces up and I'll probably give you friendship points if you come as well which can't be redeemed anywhere. I love you all.

Clean Garage

2009-12-26T19:45:00.004-08:00

I spent the whole day cleaning my garage so now the second piece no longer makes sense. On the plus side, I got some tools for Christmas so I'm feeling more and more like a man by default. Soon I will learn how to actually hold and use them.

Polaroid wonder and wood.

Nixon Holiday Mosh

2009-12-25T12:15:00.008-08:00

'Tis the season for awesomeness all around. Last week was a whirlwind, but it was topped off with the Nixon Holiday Mosh. The event was rad. Great people, great music, great artwork...the list goes on. I was able to show a couple of new pieces along with some old stuff as well. I think a bunch of new pics will be up shortly on the Nixon website...if not, I just lied about that.

I hope everyone is having a great Christmas.

Slayer Album Release

2009-12-02T12:37:00.003-08:00

And by Slayer...I mean Seth Philpott slaying the most from coast to coast. His album was released last Tuesday and it rocks. I did some lettering and doodles for the album so you can check it out when you buy the album (or get it on itunes).
www.sethphilpott.com

New stuff

2009-10-13T17:21:00.003-07:00

I'm working on a bunch of new stuff and the new pieces are super low-brow. I'm always saying that...but this time I mean it. Soon I will update (aka create) my online store and add the new pieces that are mainly old record covers with crappy sayings only I think are clever. Then you can purchase online and I can procrastinate on shipping it to you as well. Cheers!

Chromatic Art Show

2009-09-27T17:17:00.006-07:00

The show was rad last night, thanks to everyone for coming out. Voyeur was a great club to host and Kevin from the brilliant tv show The Office even showed up...and he pretty much looks the same in real life, and yes, eveyone still called him "Kevin" even though he has a real name.

Photos will be up soon at http://www.djhere.com/ as well as http://www.944.com/ As soon as I lazily (is that a word?) poach pics from these sites, I will put them up here as well.

Also - we successfully launched the first volume of our art zine Abnormal Things. These are limited edition zines and each are numbered (75 total). Hit me up if you'd like one of the remaining ones and I'll try and send it to you...or pretend to.

This Saturday - New Show

2009-09-21T13:16:00.005-07:00

...and a bunch of new low-brow drawings for sale...

GYDO Show Next Wednesday

2009-09-04T14:59:00.003-07:00

Just finished a new flyer for these guys. They will be melting faces off at U31 in North Park this next week.

Making this flyer made me miss cassettes. Most of us lived off of Boys II Men cassettes for the greater part of Jr. High.

Shotally Show

2009-09-03T12:53:00.003-07:00

Boom. New show on Sept. 26th.

Joel Every (Tactical Magic) and myself (Cowboy Wayne) will be releasing the first zine printed entitled Abnormal Things. It will be rad, this I promise.

New Zine, Old News

2009-08-27T11:30:00.003-07:00

I'm currently working with Joel Evey on a zine tentatively titled Abnormal Things. It's pretty much just a collection of drawings only we think are cool, nobody else will get it. Kind of stupid, but also pretty awesome. Shoot me an email with your address and contact info and we'll mail you a zine when they come out in September.

We are both taking part in a show at the new club Voyeur in Downtown SD on Sept. 26 so we'll be passing these out there as well.

Seth Philpott Album Artwork

2009-08-16T10:22:00.005-07:00

Recently, I've been working on some lettering and doodles with the face-melting artist known as Seth Philpott for his upcoming album that will release in September. This guy slays the most from coast to coast.

New album coming soon. Check out more at http://www.sethphilpott.com/
More album artwork to come.

New GYDO flyer

2009-08-02T21:56:00.004-07:00

This pic might scare the kids away...which kind of ruins the point since it's an all ages show. I guess that's true Cobra style, being so intense that it's not logical.

Stay tuned for some more new band project stuff I'm working on as well as some shows coming up in the future.

High School All Over Again

2009-06-28T19:50:00.005-07:00

Here's a newby from the Hard Rock show on Friday night. Thanks to everyone who came down, it was pretty epic. I'll upload some pics from the show after I poach some from some of the photographers down there. Apparently I still don't know how to use a camera.

$85 - spend it like you have it.

Rock and Roll Lives

2009-06-23T19:37:00.005-07:00

A flyer for a friend's band. Hopefully it looks like one hanging in a high school cafeteria. That's about all I'm good for in the design world.

Ok I guess, not that great though

2009-06-15T19:18:00.003-07:00

High tops and buildings. I don't get it either.

*SOLD

Totally Hot New Piece

2009-06-15T19:11:00.005-07:00

How gnarly is Kristofferson you ask? Gnarly enough to make out nude on the cover of a 1976 record with Barbara Streisand and then play a really old guy in the Blade trilogy like 30 years later. What have you done lately?

This is one I'm working on for the upcoming show at Hard Rock on the 26th. More to come.

Hard Rock Time

2009-06-11T07:52:00.003-07:00

Got yet another show coming up on the 26th. Come hang out at the Hard Rock downtown and see some awesome artwork. Rumor has it there will be a fashion show going on at the same time as well, so if you don't like my new stuff...at least you can see some really, really good looking people walking around in strange clothes.

Sat night house show

2009-06-02T18:50:00.005-07:00

It was a good time. I think I ate too many cookies. Plus, I'm not good as a door guy even if I do make a fierce face.

Coastal Creative Show

2009-05-28T08:00:00.003-07:00

Finally...a show at home in Encinitas...at Beachside. It's like a home-field game. My car will thank me.

Come check it out on the 9th. It will be a great group of artists and I'll have a few new pieces.

Shrevetime

2009-05-17T20:11:00.005-07:00

My friend Sarah will be going to Spain this summer and needing some cash to do it (for an awesome photo program she will be joining).
There will be a benefit art shot on the 30th in Hillcrest that I'll be taking part in to try and help her on her quest to further awesomeness.
Join us.

May 30th @ 7PM at 1260 Robinson Ave. in Hillcrest (92103

For sale at the show with a few more. Come buy it so Sarah makes some cash and so I look like a real artist.

I'll have a handful of new pieces up. Should be a good time.

Come out and hang so that it's an even better time.

Today was rad

2009-02-17T22:51:00.003-08:00

It really was a great day. I surfed and then ate a burrito. Life is good.

I'm also halfway through a new skate deck...here's what I have so far. Work in progress folks.

Art Collabs at Seacoast

2008-11-23T14:00:00.008-08:00

For the past few weeks I've been working with several talented high school students to complete a series of 3 paintings for the gathering room at Seacoast Community Church. We finished two of the three just in time to debut them this last Wednesday night for a great audience as we were super stoked to have As I Lay Dying come play a special show in the high school room. The pieces looked great and the band rocked it out all night. Check 'em out.

new totally awesome illustration

2008-10-06T22:34:00.004-07:00

"Blah, blah, blah...there's no such thing as a cobra necklace...blah, blah." Maybe if you would have had the foresight and man-power to tame one with some nunchucks and a malt liquor the we wouldn't be talking about it now would we.

Bring it on.

Gary

2008-09-02T22:44:00.004-07:00

I just started a new series of illustrations based around a character I came up with named Gary the awkward ghost. It's a compilation of pics revolving around a ghost going through his jr. high stage.

It's stupid...I know. But kind of awesome. I also spent about 4 minutes on this pic so rest assured it'll only get better from here on out. Check back for a bundle of new pics soon.

Skateboard Series

2008-08-31T16:24:00.006-07:00

The first piece in a series of four skate decks.

'Baller'

Three more on the way...Claim one. Or wait, whatever.

Rock Lives Series

2008-08-31T16:20:00.006-07:00

A recent piece I did for a friend's birthday in a series of illustrations entitled: 'Rock Lives'

Look for more in this series soon. I'm trying to bring the rock as well as bring back the color pink. Not sure which will come back first.
