Wow, this one was fun. New gig poster for my friends band in Newport RI. They are playing in a public park and the Sasquatch came as a suggestion from the band. I got to work with my friends Bruno and Jon on this one. We’ve done a few things together now. Check us out. Oh and if you click the image you can see a bigger version. Good for looking at the detail of the stick letters I drew for this guy.

Brooklyn view.

Now that I finally have a Flickr account, I am going to waste a lot more time retouching some old photos.

Drool.

The best custom lettering from the first half of 2009. Great stuff here.

Sweden, so much more than just death metal.

Well, I am back in the good ol’ US of effing A. Its good to be home. I love being on the move and not having a home, but is nice to actually sleep in a bed now. Plus, it gives me time to look at some of the photos I have taken on my adventures. Flickr account coming soon. Anyway, I flew back to NYC. I caught up with old friends, rode bikes, and found a great woman. I drove out to California with my best friend and his band (check out Tombs if you haven’t already). I ate a burrito and flew back to NYC…again. I went to Rhode Island to see my brother. We had BBQs and went to the beach. We skated in a secret skatepark built in a barn. We climbed Mt. Washington. I saw my family for Memorial Day weekend. It was especially nice to sit with my Grandfather and eat hot wings and shoot the breeze. I went to Philly and had a BBQ in Fairmount park. I saw my friends get married. I watched Isis from backstage at Irving Plaza and the TLA. The only bad thing that has happened is I lost about 30 Polaroids in transit from New Zealand to here. Huge bummer, but there is absolutely nothing I can do to change this. Sometimes, you eat the bar, and sometimes…well…

PS This photo is taken from the van driving across Arizona.

We will be strong.

An amazing album. I finally have a turntable now, and I am trying to make this my first vinyl purchase. Either this, or Mountain. Whatever I find first.
