Midnite Snacks Redux!


Midnite Snacks lives again...part two! All new work!

Opening tomorrow night in Chicago at

1366 Space

1366 N. Milwaukee Ave. Chicago, IL 60642

Opening Reception: Friday, March 12 6-10p

Curated by Brian Hubble, Amie Cunat, Travis Wyche

Studies and compositions often play a vital role in the artistic process. Whether a five-minute sketch on paper or a finely worked image on canvas, these efforts reveal the thoughts of an artistic mind at work.

Midnite Snacks : Chicago includes over 160 international artists presenting diverse studies that have helped actualize works of merit. Coming from far ends of the visual arts spectrum, these are works that usually fall in the shadow of more important pieces. This is a collection of the forgotten blueprints lying around every artist’s studio. From abstraction to photo-realistic drawing to digital renderings, each piece functions as the backbone of what is to come.

My piece for the show..."Every bloody shit storm has a silver lining or so I hope"

And Die!



Just finished and entered a contest for a Grafik Armor snowboard decal.

It's being promoted by Forsnowboarding.com which is in their own words, "The detail-oriented online information source focusing on the art and design subcultures within the snowboard industry."

There are some great designs in the running including my good friend Austin Watts of One Day Vaca.

Check it out mine here and Austin's here. No voting but you can leave a comment if you'd like!

Real Magic!


Chillin' with Ron Jeremy @ Magic. This is actually the 2nd time we met. The first time was over at the home of a good friend of his who was living at the Chelsea hotel. We smoked a joint and he tried to convince my girlfriend at the time to let him join us in a threesome. We politely declined his offer. Super nice guy though and I loved him in Orgazmo!
Had a great time at Magic! Met some cool people, including the artist Skinner, whose work I'm a huge fan of! Check out his work, it's super rad. Here's a pic of one of his works...
I'm an asshole cuz he was there doing a live painting and I didn't snap a pic. Some fan I am! It was a great piece as well. Damn.
I stayed with a good friend of mine, William, of Helmet of the Will, who had a booth at Project. He designs and makes a top notch upscale product for the high end connoisseur. Super soft cotton with some great hand drawn prints. Thanks Bill for the hookup and the good times!
Made some connections, strengthened some others. Partied, ate well, rolled back to our sick suite at 6am. Saw alot of great product from some great brands. Inspiration to step up the game and make some moves. All in all, MAGIC!

And another...



This opened last Thursday and is running until July 26th!

from Cinders Gallery...

Cinders Gallery is proud to present a 2 person show with Philadelphia artists Isaac Lin and Andrew Jeffrey Wright, who are old friends, collaborators, and founding members of the Space 1026 Collective. With a joyful color palate, a side-splitting humorous side, and an endearing sincerity, these seemingly lackadaisical yet awesomely prolific artists perfectly represent the attitude and nonchalance of Space 1026's decade-plus history of serious art-making.

There are multiple elements of Arabic calligraphy, musical notation, graffiti, and geometry in Isaac Lin's drawings, prints, and paintings. A repetitive rhythmic flow takes your eyes up, down, and across the page with colors, shapes, spray paint bursts, iconic faces, monsters, and cartoon dog heads. Using screen-printing techniques, gouache, markers, and collage, there is a depth to the layers of textures and colors, a visual hypnosis of patterns that seem to spread like a positive plague across walls inside and out, on found pieces of paper or even on top of photographs.

Andrew Jeffrey Wright also uses hypnotic patterning in his prints and paintings-checkerboards bend and weave, bursts of colors explode, and deconstructed lines form new patterns from old ones. Wright also paints and draws in a naïve yet efficiently done style that uses a large library of hilarious imagery, from invented characters like his series of Labrador dogs with ab muscles to nostalgic pop culture references such as an E.T. - Mr.T hybrid, Furbies, and Rainbow Brite. His potty humor can be silly but is able to retain a poignancy that is both thought-provoking and sincere.

Basil Wolverton @ Gladstone Gallery!


Hell yeah! Influential to say the least. Don't sleep on this opportunity to see this man's work!

From Gladstone Gallery...
Basil Wolverton
Curated by Cameron Jamie
515 West 24th Street, New York
June 20 to August 14, 2009
Gladstone Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition by American graphic artist and cartoonist Basil Wolverton curated by Cameron Jamie. Basil Wolverton submitted his first cartoon for publication in 1925 when he was only sixteen and remained an active cartoonist from the 1940s through to the 1970s. His unique and humorously grotesque drawings reveal both his fantastic wit and inventive technique, once famously described in LIFE Magazine as the “spaghetti and meatball school of design.” Wolverton had no formal training as an artist, creating his own style that distinguished him from the other cartoonists of his generation. As he said, “I know I draw things that look like all kinds of organs and glands, it is like the monkey which, if he pounded away for a million years, might accidentally type out the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ lyrics.” Generations of artists including Peter Saul, Ed Ruscha, Robert Williams, Jim Shaw, Mike Kelley, and Cameron Jamie have been influenced by his meticulous technique and pictorial freedom, in addition to its undeniable impact on numerous cartoonists from R. Crumb to Drew Friedman.

This exhibition includes a wide spectrum of Wolverton’s work from his earliest drawings published in numerous comic books, including “Spacehawk” and “Powerhouse Pepper,” to his very detailed caricatures, with sculpted and exaggerated features. Perhaps the most famous body of work in the exhibition are his drawings for Harvey Kurtzman’s comic-book version of MAD Magazine from the 1950s. Also included are portraits made for Topps Chewing Gum in the 1960s, which appeared on bubble gum posters and stickers. Wolverton turned to illustrating Biblical themes and events in his later years, represented here by thirteen drawings from the Apocalypse series based on the Book of Revelation. These drawings are regarded among his finest and many of these illustrations were reproduced in Plain Truth magazine.

Born in 1909 in Central Point, Oregon, Basil Wolverton resided for most of his life in the Pacific Northwest until his death in 1978. His work has been published in a variety of magazines and comic books, from MAD Magazine, America’s Humor Magazine, The Portland News, Plop! and Hollywood Today. His work has been featured in Timely Comics, Circus Comicsand Target Comics. He also contributed to the Li’l Abner Comic Strip and LIFE Magazine. In 2006, his work was exhibited at The Portland Art Center in Oregon and in 2007 the CSUF Grand Art Center in Santa Ana, California presented a solo exhibition of Wolverton’s oeuvre from the collection of Glenn Bray. The works selected and presented in this exhibition are also from Bray’s private archive/collection.

My Deck...


My nasty contribution to the Night of the Living Decks Show at Ave A Sushi (Ave A btwn 6th and 7th) which opened last night. Big thanks to the organizers of the event Mike A, Miss Gunns, and Jason McKown for putting together such a rad catalog and poster! Sorry for the crappy pic, the color is way off, but I had to swipe it from the catalog since I was too rushed to take a pic before the show and too lazy to bring my camera to it. The whole show is supposed to be on Fangoria's website but couldn't find it yet. I'll post it if it does. Thanks to all my friends for coming out and the new ones that I met. There is some seriously great art and the show is up for the next 8 weeks, I think, so GO!!!

So I meant to post this last Friday but I forgot in my excitement of going to see the Melvins, which if you went count yourself lucky cuz it was 2 hrs of pure radness! Speaking of radness, Arik Roper's show at Gavin Brown Enterprise, is not to be missed. The small watercolors done in Arik's distinct style of pen and watercolor are amazing. The pictures of magick mushrooms make up his book on the same subject. The book itself is just as beautiful. I got a chance to meet and speak with Arik, which in and of itself was awesome as I'm a huge fan of his work and of a lot of the bands/clients he works with, and not surprisingly he's a really down to earth guy. Go check it out! 620 Geenwich St, upstairs!

Learn to Communicate Like a Fucking Normal Person Opens Tomorrow!

Our boy, Pat Berran, featured in The Nasty, is in a group show opening tomorrow.
Learn to Communicate Like a Fucking Normal Person
Curated by Anastasia Rogers and Jessie Cohan
Patrick Berran
Alex Hubbard
David Malek
Davina Semo
Mika Tajima
John Tremblay
James Weingrod
April 30 - May 30, 2009  
Opening reception: Thursday, April 30, 7-9pm
Art Production Fund 299 West Houston Street
“Learn to Communicate Like a Fucking Normal Person” highlights an elliptical and overlapping conversation currently taking place between these artists. Malek and Weingrod critically deploy mathematical models and theories of natural phenomena as key components of their artistic practices. Tremblay’s shaped canvases are an act of rebellion. Semo conveys a mood of low-lying despair through organic forms, as Tajima culls architectural references from unfinished condos and mismatched car parts. Hubbard and Berran are process-driven: Berran’s paintings meditatively obliterate the gestures of his own hand, while Hubbard playfully layers techniques like film production and printmaking.
The featured works vary from large-scale paintings and shaped canvases to small wooden sculptures. The works’ cohesion lies in a form of communication devoid of the obvious, but not of the observable. Each piece draws from a disparate point of reference, rendering a lucid dialogue that uses subtext, detachment and craft to engage the viewer. Delivered with intellectual vigor and offering indeterminate meanings, sound resonates through structure, stroke, and form. The diverse languages employed are abstract, emotive, scientific, geometric, and ephemeral. Nonetheless, they share a formal grammar of line,
shape, palette, and abstraction.
