Dog portrait

This is a portrait of Luke, my friend Dean’s dog. Dean and I were roommates for about 3 years, and Dean adopted Luke weeks after moving into the house in Echo Park. I always wanted to paint his portrait, and I did so for Dean’s birthday last year. Personally, I think it is the best portrait I have done.

Erotic Art Fair '09

I haven’t posted in a while…. I’ve been busy with putting together a co-op comics distributing group (and editing a sampler book for it) and with a new dog. Both being fun, frustrating, and a lot of work… but ultimately worth it and things I love. Overdue are more tattoo posts, an update of the tattoo section, illustration section, and a rehaul of marginalizedpublications.com.

I’ll be at the Erotic Art Fair this weekend at West Hollywood Park, so come on down and check it out. It’s free to get in. See some great art and buy some dirty comics! I’ll have copies of the aforementioned sampler onhand.
Check out the Tom of Finland Foundation website for more info. 

Feral pin-up

Hey boys and girly-boys, this here is a pin-up I did recently which is featured in the special “HAIRY MEN” issue of MEN. The issue includes pin-ups by DRUB, Brad Rader, Axel… and features by Patrick Fillion, Justin Hall and Steve MacIsaac. Go get one!

A bird of paradise, and a griffon. Both freehand.

I heart MMA

So, back in july, Daniel and I went to Vegas to see UFC 86. It was a week before our 2 year anniversary, so why not, eh? Headliners were Forest Griffon and Rampage Jackson, it was very exciting, and LOUD. I’ve never seen so many affliction shirts in my life. We had nosebleed seats, and as much as I tried to watch the actual fights, the giant projection screen just off to the left kept dragging my attention to it. I only remembered to take pics of the fights during the Cote v Almeida match. I wish I had remembered to during Koscheck v Lytle, which was probably the bloodiest fight I’ve ever seen. The lady next to me was covering her eyes, and so was Daniel.
These pics are all of the Cote/Almeida match:













These two I took with my cell phone. The tall guy is fighter Corey Hill.

sacred heart tattoo

Okay, so the idea is to post more often here and not be such a lazy bastard. Hmmmmm…. here’s a pic of a tattoo I did on a client named Yoshio a few months back. Came out pretty nice.
