Welcome to the Bungaloo!
I don't know how you got here either, but I sure am glad you did.

....................................................
The Bungaloo is available for Design, Illustration, and pretty much any project you can come up with.

Let's work together on something:

THE ARK HAS LANDED

Well hey there, look what finally came in the mail! I was fortunate to be asked to do an illustration for the Ark Project, by DGPH. You can see my illo full-size and sans-thumb in the illustration section.

As always, thanks for looking around, new posters and illos to be posted soon.

HOLIDAY MYSTERY TUBES AND NEW ART PRINTS!

Do you know another person? You do? Great! Then I have the perfect gift for them! Holiday Mystery Tubes from the Bungaloo! What's in one of these mystery tubes? Well, I'm glad you asked -- in each tube there is no less than:

+ 2 posters from this year
+ 1 full size (at least 18x24) monoprint
+ 1 Art Print (sizes varying)

How much would you pay for something that amazing and fantastic? 1 dollar? 2? Wow, you are a phenominal low-baller. How about 30? Because that's all I'm asking, which I still think is a pretty fantasticly-awesome price. And that person you know will totally appreciate you thinking of them.

I only made 10, so visit the Bungaloo store and get 'em while they're hot!

(Note: Poster tubes will not arrive literally hot, that would be a silly, inappropriate, and a downright unsafe idea for a tube full of paper prints)


Oh! And I have listed many new Art Prints, please check them out as they would also make some fantastic holiday gifts for the people in your life you mildly care about.

THEM THINGS CALLED "BOOKS"

Are you all familiar with this phenomenon? I think they're really gonna start to catch on. Anyways, I was fortunate enough to be included in a couple of recent publications, focused on illustration, and I strongly suggest you pick up copies for yourself; they really are a couople of beautiful books:

Illusive. Contemporary Illustration Part 3 & Hair 'em Scare 'em -- both released by the fine and lovely folks of Gestalten Press.

On the way, also, is The Ark Project: An Illustrated Bible From Artists Around the World. I have not yet recived the book, but have seen some fantastic previews, so I am very excited. You can see my contribution to the book, as well as a bunch of new Illustration pieces, if you bop on over to the Illustration page.

What Else, you say? You're not satisfied? Welp, I have a new T Shirt deisgn up that I did for the Alamo Drafthouse and Mondo Tees, for their screening of (sorry, not for sale through my site), I've got heaps of new art prints, and yes, of course, new posters up and for sale.
I am putting together a couple of new art prints that will be available soon, a new T shirt design is on the way, as well as a small batch of mystery tubes filled with Bungaloo goodness. All of which will make most-excellent gifts for your friends, families, and closest enemies. I'll let you email-listers be the first to know they become available.

OMG! In case you missed it -- A little while back I did an interview with my freind, Mitch Putnam, of OMG! Posters. It was a bit fo a fun reflection, and I never got around to posting a link up here, unfortunately. Check it out if you haven't seen it already, and visit Mitch's blog on a daily basis; he is an incredibly fantastic ambassador for this small group of poster artists, illustrators, and fine artists alike, and a real-swell person to boot.

TASTE THE SMELL OF SUMMERTIME

So, it's been a little bit, but its good to see you again, you're looking well, rather fit and svelt. But you know what you're missing? Yep, some ripe-off-the-vine Bungaloo. So let's see what I've got for you this time:

New Posters (of course, yeah, I know (but, for real, The Detroit Cobras, Big Business, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Beans 'N' Screens, and Mogwai)).
New Monoprints (16 of 'em (some variants of the posters mentioned above))
New Art Print (House No. 20)
New T Shirt (Golden Summer Beard version of Viking Tee (asphalt ones are pretty much gone)
And some updates to the Design and Illustration sections

You like books? Yeah? Good stuff, right? Welp, I've got work in 2 coming out soon(ish):

The Ark Project:
An illustrated animal bible by artists from all over the world, The Ark Project is being made to raise awareness of endangered species around the globe. Created by DGPH and published by IdN, it will be released in September this year (August, in Argentina (sounds like a hot new band name, no?)) Hardcover, 240 illustrated pages. I was asked to save the wood turtle, nature's most-feared and masculine creature (infinitely appropriate, I know).

Illusive 3: I'm also fortunate to have some work in a new book about contemporary illustration, Illusive 3, put together by the fine folks at Gestalten. I know little details for now, it should be out sometime in the fall, but I'll let you know more when I do.

Well, that's enough horn-tooting for one day. But, if you must ask, I've got projects in progress for Yonder Mountain String Band, Alina Simone, DJ Brett Randle, and So Many Dynamos. And some new art prints. And some new shirts (for the summertime, so, yes, I'll get those wrapped up soon). And some more scarves. And if that's not enough, I dunno what to tell you. Go run around the block or something. Maintain that nice trim summer look we were just talking about.

FLATSTOCK 20: AUSTIN


Well, I packed up the Bungaloo and headed down to Austin for Flatstock 20 and the SXSW Music Festival. It was a solid week of posters, music, BBQ, and sleeping on a half-deflated air matress, sandwiching my arm between my body and the wooden floor (but in all seriousness, thank you again, Tyler, Tori, and Wes). Likewise, thank you to all who attended Flatstock, I hope you found it to be a swell time, and especially thank you to those who made it by the Bungaloo booth. It was really nice to escape into the light of day for a bit and get to talk to all day about posters and drawing and printing and other such related geekery.

Buuuuuut, if you weren't there, you didn't yet see some new work; I've got new posters, art prints, shirts, illustrations, and scarves. Please take a moment to gander.

WEBSITE: PART DEUX


The website needed an overhaul. It was feeling stale, so, it was time for a fresh start. So, here's the new one, please take look around. Did you see the new plaid yet? It's right there! I know, right?! But, outside of that, there's still a lot of new stuff to check out. Like what? Well, I'm glad you asked:

New T Shirts (and a couple of re-prints)
New Scarves (and more on the way)
New Posters (lots)
Art Prints (decoractive posters, sans-words)
Monoprints (a whole slew of em)
Journals, Greeting Cards, some animations... shoot, I don't remember everything, its been a year since I added anything else, so, please, waste a few minutes and look around.

And, as always, if you have questions about the work, or any other inquiries, unless you're a foreign prince with an exciting new business opportunity -- in which case, please go away.

Oh, and the idea from here on out is to improve upon my pace of annual website updates. But, if you really want to keep up on the cutting edge Bungaloo news, for very infrequent updates.
