Rare Oul' Sketch

Inspired lately by Shane MacGowan, so I threw this sketch up here. Hope to do a polished version soon when I begin to sober up. Whenever that will be. Sláinte Mhaith.

Missing In Action And Lost In 2008

Hey all,

Don't know if anyone checks my poor, neglected blog any more, but if you're reading this, thanks for dropping by. It's been nearly three months since I posted and, as you can see, Monster Month was hugely successful, profitable, and creative. Heh. However, hopefully things will pick up in January. Here's a few pieces I had worked on in my absence from the blogosphere:




Front cover and disc artwork for WFUV's FUV Live Vol. 11.


Poster for the Abbey's third annual Simpson's Thanksgivathon. Pictured is bartender Mark.

I took a few snaps of the artwork, excluding my pieces, hanging in the SOT! art show. The pics aren't lighted great and I'm no Ansel Adams, but below are some of the works very talented artists contributed. Again, my thanks go out to them for making such a great show so successful.

Monkey Cake

This confection masterpiece was created by a very talented pastry chef in Rhode Island and was the center piece at my nephew's monkey themed birthday party. The chef created the cake from the invite pictured in front of the cake. What a great resemblance! Pretty cool. Coolest part? Joe had to cut and peel fondant from the back of its head and cut out pieces of cake like a demented brain surgeon. Gory.

SOT! A Man Walks Into A Bar...

Hey! Thanks to everyone who contributed to the SOT! show last night and yay to everyone who showed up. From what I remember, it was a good time. Apparently I ended the night without a shirt on, so, hey, success.
