the Hedgehog



last night i was the portrait artist at the "Worst Corporate Holiday Party Ever." It was a truly awful party! i drank free beers all night & ate hot cheetos & had to listen to, like, Bryan Adams & BoysIIMen. but then Ron Jeremy shows up towards the end, after i had been drinking quite heavily. i persuaded him to let me draw his portrait. he was eating the free cookies the entire time, so his mouth might be a little off. also, he kept telling me to make his face thinner & his hair less so. so i did, 'cuz i'm a nice guy. Ron's a pretty nice guy, too, he let me keep it & i'm glad he did! i won't sell it on ebay, Ron, i promise! well, not while you're still alive, anyways. you're a legend & the ladies love you.

Politic-O's




We at 21st Century Filth designed these cereal boxes of Obama N' McCain for this company called airbedandbreakfast.com. They showed these boxes on E! News. I didn't know they were sellin' these for $40 so when i got mine in the mail i opened up the Cap'N McCain's & had a milky bowl for breakfast. Not 'cuz i am a Republican but 'cuz i like that kind of cereal better. I was like, "free food!" but it turns out i am the dummy. Below are a couple of McCain studies i did in preparation, followed by the sketch for the box design, which Brian finished:

Lincoln Blogs



this is the latest dumb idea of mine to get deleted from myspace. i guess Tom & Rupert have got something against our sixteenth president, and the ladies who love him.

"but seriously, Baloney Boy, enough with the crotch shots. it's like you have some kind of fixation with the vag or something."

'tis the wellspring of life, i say! the very genesis of the universe, this garden of earthly delights! let its praises be sung, goddamnit!

"oh, shut up, you perv."

ok.

Death of the 60s Pt. I

i was part of a group art show at Swing House here in Hollywood last weekend, here's the drawings i came up with:


"Death of the 60s: The Murder of Gary Hinman" - i've been reading a lot about the Manson murders, thinking about how they relate to the end of the 60s & what that meant for America, that sorta thing. this is how i visualized the mysterious circumstances of the first Manson-related killing, of Gary Hinman, which seems to have set off the entire bizarre series of events.


this is a quick study of Charlie & a pistol i did at the beginning of a long night of inking, it turned out OK so i hung it up


"Found Collage: Helter Skelter 1" - this is my (large) ink drawing of a page from Vincent Bugliosi's 'Helter Skelter' about the Manson murders


"Found Collage: Helter Skelter 2" - another image from 'Helter Skelter'


a photo of my lady, Laura, and myself at the show! Click on image for more photos from that night.

Dog Blog



This is a drawing of my dog, Niko. She's probably sitting there thinking, 'Man, that dude is drawing me again. He better hurry up 'cuz I ain't holding still for that damn long. In fact, it's been long enough. Shoot, he can make the rest up, it just looks like a buncha little black lines anyways. I need to lick something. And damn, dude, change the channel! You've already seen this episode of "I Love Money!" You watch too much celebreality! I'm getting sick of it. Man, I'm gonna go lick something. Seriously.'

The Illustrated Ape



i got asked by James & Joe at the Illustrated Ape, a cool British arts magazine, to contribute to their photography issue (#26). the idea was that illustrators would create photographic self-portraits. the above photo is what i came up with - a segment of the bulletin board that hangs in our kitchen.

muchas gracias to my, er, assistant, Laura, for this one
