For my friends at the 2011 RIO CON. Wish I was there with you.

Happy birthday, Jack Kirby. 94 years old today.

A second limited-edition colorway of my recent BX TOUR 2011 poster is available from NAKATOMI.

My latest screenprint-- a 3 color print for Blues Explosion. Jon Spencer sent me a bunch of hot video clips of Raquel Welch from 1969, which inspired this. The Beguiling in Toronto has a few of these, signed, for sale.

Floating World's exuberant comics-art magazine DIAMOND drops this week, I did the cover design for this, the 6th issue. It looks like a great line up.

The image was made for the upcoming THEE HYPNOTICS music documentary, coming later this year. My mate Phil from Thee Hypnotics tells this story about a Spanish stripper in Madrid who did an act with a boa constrictor...I was watching Masks Of Fu Manchu at the time I drew this (released 1932, with Boris Karloff and Myrna Loy) (if you see it, see the uncensored version), and researching Native American portraits for another project...all these things blended and out came this...

I have some of my 2007-2010 screenprint work with Axelle Arts in a group show in Chelsea NYC this month, details below:
