Thanks to everyone who participated in and / or made it out to the Energy Show opening last weekend. It was a pretty good turnout. Here are a few pieces that I really liked from the show. The first 2 are CASN from Belgium and the lower one is Brisk from Tribal Gear in California. If you wanna see some shots of the opening click here. Thanks to Krista Shay for the photos. Oh, and thanks to the dude who stole my gun shaped, flower vase that was in the bathroom. What a shit head! It’s a free show with free beer and some asshole feels the need to steal shit that was given to me by a good friend. What’s up with dumb mother fuckers? Anybody Know? Anyway keep an eye out for the next show. This one will blow your mind if it we can actually make it happen. That’s all I’m sayin’ for now.

R.I.P.

This weekend we started to get the gallery ready for “The Energy Show 08″ – graffiti exhibit opening this Saturday.

The exhibit will feature over 30 artists from Spain, France, Belgium, Germany, Greece, UK, San Diego, NYC, Florida, Ohio and more. Opening Reception on Sat. July 5th @ 8pm -11pm. Runs ‘till the 19th. Don’t miss it! Click here for more info. If you live in the area I hope to see you at the opening!

This is the weirdest sticker I’ve ever seen! I was looking through some stuff that Michelle and I bought in Japan and I had forgotten about this gem. Michelle got it at a store called Tokyu Hands. There are roughly 100 Takyu Hands stores every 20 steps in Tokyo and they are all huge! It’s funny because it’s kinda their equivalent to Lowes or Home Depot, except everything is way more fun in Japan. You can buy everything from lumber to ridiculous Halloween costumes, art books and vinyl toys there. Any way I thought I’d share this feeling of chopped guts with you.

Did a few new shirts for Jacob Shields, an old buddy of mine from way back who owns a series of surf & skate shops in southern Florida. The Compound is starting their new clothing line this year and these are the fist designs to be printed.

So yeah, I was moving some stuff around and fixing the URL for this blog site and when I did that, I totally screwed things up and had to re install. Big deal… it’s back up and running now. I really haven’t been able to show much of the client projects I’m working on currently anyway. Been creating some pretty rad stuff with Joshua Smith over at Hydro 74 creating t-shirt graphics, skate & snowboard designs etc. for clients. Also, been working on a couple new projects with Red Bull. They actually allowed me start to breaking out of the standard corporate guidelines a bit on this one and I think it would be a cool system moving forward with future designs, replacing the background pattern each time. We are doing a blue on blue tattoo-style wings pattern that wraps behind the RB logos for Progressive Skate Park in Atlanta for their upcoming contest. Check it out below. Also, the Red Bull Human Flying Machine Event is coming to Tampa Bay this year. Doing some enormous graphics right now for that one.
