	On the cover of the Rolling Stone! Did I say Rolling Stone? Dang! I meant Fecal Face! (Really, so much better in every way.) Here's a snapshot, or go to Fecal Face, but you'll probably need to wait a while until my dude pops up. I recently found out that a piece of mine has been purchased for the permanent collection at the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay. Hmmm, I need to make it up there some day and have a look. I'm in the movies! Russian film maker Yaroslav Dobronravov (Dob) used some of my art in several scenes of his new film entitled Rafail Pirone. Here's a link, to some screen shots from the film. So then I went to San Francisco. 2010 off to a Great Start! I have pieces in two group shows in January: "Odd Populi" at POVevolving Gallery in Los Angeles curated by John Casey, and "Into the Ring, Sumo-style" at SOMArts Cultural Center in San Francisco curated by MariNaomi. Two group shows where I'll be showing 20 works on paper (10 at each show) will be opening in December. One is Heady Mugs at Nudashank Gallery in Baltimore. The other is Fresh Produce at A.D. Gallery in San Jose. Here's a link to the pieces I'll have at A.D. Gallery. None More Black That's the name of the group show I was in. It opened October 23rd at 4th Wall Project in Boston. The other artists in the show were Elisabeth Timpone, Chad Chesko, and Tony Bevilacqua. More info here, and here are some photos of some of the larger pieces I had in the show. I had several of my recent pieces on wood at the Mark Milliken Gallery in New York City, at 1198 Madison Avenue (between 87th and 88th). Here's a link to the pieces I recently had there. If you're in New York, try to have a look. O, Brave Monster! Lead the way! OK, so now I'm selling MONSTER SHIRTS! Lots of MONSTERS, lots of shirt styles, colors, sizes! You REALLY need a new Monster Shirt! Actually, you probably need like four or five. Now's your chance! I had two paintings in a juried show called CHROMATOSE at Nudashank Gallery in Baltimore. I went to the opening, took pictures of the great art, and met nice people. You can see the pictures here on Fecal Face. Been very busy lately and haven't had time to update some things on the writing front. Five pieces have been published recently: We Like Ike in Hangman #8, Coyote America Action Block in Dale Smith's Slow Poetry collection (PDF here), The Very Origin of Artaud's Crablice in Halvard Johnson's War Papers #3, and a long (for me) and nearly un-readable piece called A Substitute for Death in the July issue of Midway Journal. Also, a while ago, The Sea Walks Away With a Burst of Laughter in Sugar Mule #29. I've also added these to the writing section of this site. I interviewed Jake Watling for Fecal Face. Read it here! Wanderlust Gallery in England recently put together a cool group show. I was in the show with 32 other artists. The show was called The Wanderlust 333. It was online and in the gallery simultaneously, and prints of any piece in the show could be bought in three different sizes at three different prices. Pretty cool. Here are some photos of the opening for the You've Got Light in Your Eyes show at Needles and Pens. I have a BLOG now, but don't ask me why. OK, better late than never. I finally got around to posting some images of the Apenest print, printing process, etc. Have a look here. I put up three new pages in the Drawing section. One is sort of a "drawings on photos and photo collage with a porn smut sort of thing going on" sort of thing, and the rest are just your basic sort of skritchy drawings, although one of them is about 2 feet long, horizontal that is. You can see them here and here and here. The new issue of Midway Journal is online, and several of my "lit" cartoons are published here. And there are more of them on my own site here. The Stampede continues. There is an Artist Profile on me in the October '08 issue of Juxtapoz. It was written by Caleb Neelon, and features the Apenest limited edition print. The cover is by Conor Harrington, and there's a feature story on Monica Canilao. Lots of other good stuff, too. Apenest (that powerhouse of cultural influence driven by Cody Hoyt and Brian Willmont) recently released a limited edition print of one of my paintings, printed by Cody at Gemini GEL studios in Los Angeles. It's a 6 color print, 15" x 20", signed and numbered by the artist (me), printed on Fabriana paper in an edition of 50. You can buy one here. Photons released their debut EP and I did the art for the cover and for the CD itself. I think it looks very cool, and the music is excellent Bay Area guitar pop. Here's a photo I took of the package, but you really need to get one for yourself! I recently did an interview for The Lumper. Have a look, and check out all the other great posts on The Lumper. Mr. Thinkmule picks great stuff. I'm honored to be there! Kick Out the Jams, or "How to Get Into the NY MoMA Permanent Collection Through the Back Door!" Because of the hard work and great talent of Griffin Mcpartland and Chris Duncan, the complete collection of their 10 issue hand-made zine Hot and Cold will be going into the permanent collection of the NY MoMA. Issue 2 (or 9, depending on how you count), has just been released. I'm happy to have a few of my images in the issue. Well, well, well. This is certainly a very nice thing. Apenest, Volume Two has just been published, and is ready for the bookstores. Or you can buy one online. Needless to say, I am so happy to have my work in here with so many supercool art makers. Thanks so much to Apenest for putting it together. Meighan O'toole keeps a cool art blog called my love for you is a stampede of horses. She recently featured some of my art here. Have a look at her other posts. There's lots there, and it's all so good! Some new collaborative work with Timothy Buckwalter is here and also here. Also, I posted a bunch of new drawings, most of which have a sort of literary angle, sort of, here. The Beltane issue of CRIT Journal has just been published. A written piece of mine called The Thousand Drunkard Suicides is there. Also, the cover image for the issue is one of my paintings called The Functions of the Shaman. There are five other excellent writers there also. I think it all looks great. Have a look. So now I have a music label and my first CD. No, really! I do! Have a look here. Timothy Buckwalter asked me to write something about art, so I wrote something about Paul Klee (my all-time favorite?), and here it is on the KQED web site. Also, I made a wall collage from one of Timothy's big drawings and some of my stuff that was lying around in my studio. I think it looks pretty cool. In South America, autumn is on its way in, and Ruby Magazine (out of Buenos Aires) has a new issue online. Some of my art is featured along with work from seven other artists from around the world. Ruby Magazine is great, and I am so happy to have my work featured here with so many talented artists. Have a look at the back issues while you're at it. If you'd really like to go back farther, I have a news archive page here.			Art Resume My Biography Some Photos Of Me I was a Spring 2006 Fellow at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts.
