StenSOUL/Food One Collab






My buddy StenSOUL in St Louis is doing these dope collabo luchador masks. He sent me this die-cut mask on wood, which he had painted white and stenciled in the eyes and mouth areas with black spray paint. Then I cut loose on the rest of it. He's doing a whole series of these with a bunch of rad artists. The kid is doing some really fresh shit. Check out more at:

Baby Beat Bee


Check this little dude out! His name is Arlo. His dad, Allan, comissioned me to do a painting for his nursery. I am honored to have this kid look at one of my paintings everyday when he wakes up. A future funk soldier in training, me thinks...

Four in One


I had this piece of paper sitting by my computer. A couple days ago I drew a picture of me and Smoke Dog on it for the back cover of the new Stupid Comics: Phoenix Edition collection (due out March 19!). Then I started making a list of all the pieces I was sending to NY for my gallery show next month. Then Allen Hui, the dude designing the back cover of the new Stupid collection, asked me to draw a cityscape for the back cover. So that was scribbled in at the top and scanned. Then today I used the paper to make some notes and I did some ballpoint pen sketches at the bottom. It's not that exciting, really. But it IS four in one...

St Louis Pics!







These are flicks from our kick-ass annual St Louis Live Art Jam on Dec 28th! It was an amazing night. Mike Huddleston, Jose Garibaldi, Calc 2, Revise, and I all rocked the live art. My brother, DJ Mahf, along with DJs Intel and Pickel, the Earthworms, and The Savage provided the tunes. Thanks to all who came out and partied with us...
