Goat Boy


Today is the 15th anniversary of the untimely death of my man Bill Hicks.
"Today, a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there's no such thing as death, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the weather."

Ben's Colors

This dude from Mexico named Ben emailed me and told me he was a fan and he rocked some samples of his colors over a couple of my images. This is what my shit would look like if it was painted on the hood of a g'ed-out lowrider, man. Fucking dope!

Galactrix Party Tonight






I rocked five murals in one day at Meltdown Comics yesterday. That's my new world record. It's for the release party of this video game called Puzzle Quest: Galactrix. I dunno what the hell it is, but I got to go in and crush shit. And my boy R-Rated is DJing tonight and there will be food and booze and stuff.

StreetFighter @ Moca






Last night was the big StreetFighter 20th Anniversary party at the Moca Art Museum in downtown LA. I was one of eight LA artists picked to paint one of the old school arcade machines. So I represented the I Am 8-Bit crew and did my best to destroy that shit. The machines are being auctioned off for Mike (Linkin Park) Shinoda's charity foundation, www.musicforrelief.org. That last photo is me and StreetFighter creator Yoshiki Okamoto. He was a totally cool dude. He didn't really speak english but he gave me the "thumbs up". Rad.

Oil


This is my first oil painting in, oh, thirteen years. There's some pencil and spraypaint and construction paper in it, too, but it's mostly oil.

NY

What an amazing 5 days. It felt like two weeks. Thanks to all who came by the Nerdcore booth at the con and my art show in Brooklyn! The reaction was overwhelmingly amazing. I'm actually sweating scotch. Time for detox...
