I recently submitted my giant rooster drawing that I like to call “Growth Hormone Disaster” on Paul Frank’s Art Attack contest. Winner receives money for art supplies as well as some great publicity. I can REALLY use both right now so your vote would be greatly appreciated.

A friend of mine, who worked for the derailment division of the Union Pacific railroad sent me these images of wrecks they’ve cleared. As a long time rail fan, I thought these were pretty interesting. Enjoy!

Please join us Saturday, March 13th for INTERSECT, a group show featuring works by Leah Engel, Lucian Moon (LAMB) and Ricky Watts. A reception will take place from 6-9pm featuring hors d’oeuvres, drinks and music by the legendary Mr. Element. See you there.

Buddha’s Palm Tattoo Gallery is located in the southern end of Sebastopol, nestled between Starbucks and Subway in the Gravenstein Plaza on Hwy. 116.

I’ve been a fan of Greg “CRAOLA” Simkins for years now. Right before my eyes, I’ve witnessed this artistic juggernaut blossom from a graffiti seedling to one of the most heavy hitting players in the art world. Along the way, Greg’s been nothing but kind and easy going, always taking the time to shoot the breeze at a show, reply to my emails, refer me for design gigs and/or show me love at the wall we’re painting. He even put one of my pieces in a Spiderman video game back when he worked as an gaming animator. Needless to say, I’ve got a lot of love for this guy. With that being said, Greg recently launched the “I’m Scared” clothing line, named after his website/company and it’s nothing short of impressive. Let’s be real though, Greg’s never been one to half ass it, dude puts it down for real. Check out his gear, show your love and support and hop on the style wagon before the world does. This thing’s gonna blow up!
