More News From Nowhere...

I'm working on a short story/ picture book/ comic or whatever anyone wants to call it. It's about a guy who gets a disease and doesn't do anything about it. It's going to be a comedy. My friend Jodie Cockburn wrote it, and now I'm in charge of drawing it and coloring it. It's taking much longer than I thought because I'm actually making this one good. I may or may not put it in VOM6 or just make a stand alone zine.
Here's a very rough sneak peak of the character's infected hand that's on it's way to stop an alarm clock...


When I finish a day of work, my boss and I test out products and paint the wall at his home. We couldn't think of something to write, so we went with my cat's name, Stella. Here are pics of what we did, he's finishing it out...




Some recent things I've acquired for my place:


Obama Commemorative Plate: My Grandfather doesn't like Barack. No one in my immediate family does. I have about 4 cousins out of 30 something who liked him. So my grandpa got me this as a joke gift for December's Annual gift day, or Xmas. Instead of finding it as a joke, I thought it was pretty awesome. It is really hilarious sitting on my shelf and everyone makes a comment about it. It's OK though, I like looking like an old lady who has plates commemorating everything, especially if it's a guy I voted for and trust.


Young Widows tour print: Good show. Solid album. I'm waiting on their 7" series to come in the mail...

Coliseum show print: Intronaught made these. Google them and check out their other stuff. I'm trying not to spend money I don't have, but this I couldn't pass up.


Jen's Alone Again- by Katie Kader- I've had this for a long time. I must show it off though...


8" Dunny designed by HAN- this was given to me. Very nice on my shelf. Thanks James.



Two EXTREMELY important art shows to check out in North Texas, if you are in the area, check them out. Some of the best local art around and some of my best friends:



That's my update for February. I'm too tired to make more posts. Too much work to do and people to see in the real world....
