Yes, this is going to be great, we have been working on sketches and designs so we can get to work as soon as our feet touch the ground. In the meantime back in Seattle if you are in Belltown, be sure to stop by the Gary Manuel Salon for a small showing of paintings from this past year. This will be up all month so you have time.

Progress on Belltown Wall

I will also be gallivanting this season's Punk Rock Flea Market on the 10th of December at the Underground also in Belltown. I love buying handmade soap and vintage clothing from Indian Summer and Midnight Mart! As you know this past fall, Ego, Japhy Witte, NKO and I painted a larger than life sized mural on the North side of the building. Come check it out!

See you there!

Me thinks I will re-release this next year. It's a tiny zine I used to carry along on outta' state adventures. I would trade it for various things while out and about. These are fun ways to strike up a conversation, trade for a coffee or beer or leave a lasting impression on someone you would like to impress =)

There are more of pages posted on the Flickr... Click the pic for the link.

This is the newest addition to Seattle!
I started at 9am and just worked my little butt off till it was done. Thank you all that came out and brought me snacks =)

"Residents in the area, and those passing by approve of the mural, and appreciate the cheery colors. Kids particularly have taken to the mural, enjoying the "fluffy pillows" on the wall. "

New Painting

Fish face!

This the newest painting I nerded out to the other night. I sanded the edges and rounded the wood corners. I also weathered the overall look by sanding parts of the background and painting itself. I really like the aesthetic of this technique, we shall see where it takes me!

I have several more pieces of wood this size that I have loose plans for. Currently I am excited about getting my space a little more organized and put together.

Thank you for stopping by and cheers from my home on the beach!

Yup.
Here are 2 of my favorites and I at Artoleptic 2011.
Mr. Augie Pagan and Ego.

This is the finished piece we worked on together. It was the first time I worked in collaboration with Augie. I have worked in the past at events at the 9lb Hammer in Georgetown for Art Jam (Check out the Seattle Weekly link for pics of this kick butt event). Collaborations of course is something Ego and I love to do and Artoleptic is on of our favorite events.

I have linked their names with their sites as well as Artoleptic, please make sure to check out their amazing work!

Stickers to Peel Magazine

I have been doing a bunch of these and adding to orders all around. Super fun and keep the day entertaining. It also makes me super excited to go home and paint.

Last night I pumped a painting of a fish spitting fire and started another black and white painting inspired from an illustration I did in Sayulita.

Let's go back to Mexico.

Adios!
