snot and weekly comics

i hate being sick.

BUT, on a lighter note, britt and i have started doing weekly comics over at uterus parade, so i think, perhaps, you should check it the heck out, woncha?

sweaters

new at the rage! doot doot doot!

sweaters + fabric markers = wicked. well, you might not think so, but that's your opinion. whatever..

each one's hand drawn and delicious on items of preloved clothing. they smell like strangers and love, i promise you.

bye bye canzine

well, what a weekend.

first of all, the wonderous phil mcandrew came to toronto from the state of new york on friday night and slept on mine and britt's couch all weekend. here he is, enjoying some strong canadian beer.

we ate so much food and made so many horrible jokes and faces, one would not have to make any more jokes and/or faces for the rest of their lives and still be average on the joke/face scale of life. i thought americans were all big fat dummies, but i guess there are exceptions. phil's not fat. or at least he hides it well.

then, holy halloween saturday. i sewed my fingies raw making a few costumes, no biggie..

and then, the whole point of this post, sunday! canzine!

i'm not sure why we look so sad about it, but really, it was awesome.

and monday, the three of us slouched real deep and drew a LOT of horrible, horrible pictures... here's one, c/o philip:

and if you really WANT to see the rest of them, which i highly caution you from doing, you can find them HERE. dont say i didnt warn you...

here's a drawing of me and britt that phil scrawled on that lazy lazy day...

SO, this weekend is going to be another busy one...

this thursday, ale diaz has a show at the NACO cafe gallery called "ubiquitous death", where she painted a shit ton of skulls, and had a bunch of peeps, including myself, screw around with some of them, so ch-check it out!

DEETS!

AND, britt, myself, and a few other pals are in a show with the wonderous friendly rich and the lollipop people for their new cd release, and there will be lots of super duper artwork all over the friggen place, and super duper music in our ears, so you should definitely come check it out this saturday at the tranzac.

MORE DEETS!

AND, me and britt again. mini comics. chapters... brampton? yeah. brampton. this sunday. BE THERE. or not, i wouldnt hold it against you if you didnt. really.

so yeah, it's been busy. and there is more to come. soon. very very soon...

ps- phil = #1. for serious.

well, after struggles with my super and UPS, i finally got my new promo junk!

me'n'britt have been working on a collabo-comic for canzine (which you should come to, by the way...), and i'm almost done my pages.

and finally, i'm a part of a one night only show with friendly rich and the lollipop people at the tranzac on nov.7th, and i'm just sanding down my new beaut of a surface to work on...

take note of the 18" ruler for scale... awesome find at goodwill for $3. the last supper is on the other side. i cant make this shit up.

AND, in a few days, hold on to your genitals, cus i'll be posting my first ever actual real life freelance gig... hang tight.

jimmy the greek

recently, i did a custom plush-y-ma-doodle. this dude's better half gave me money to make a replica of his manfriend for his birthday. isnt that sweet? i bet they made out after...

this here, is a greek man named JIM. he is greek. sooo, i guess that makes him jimmy the greek? weird.

he is one half of the dorky dorky geeky dorktown of kirby krackle
