the final print: putting it up on ebay...
["Bluetrain"- the new gapingvoid print. Click on image to enlarge etc.]
So yeah, the Bluetrain print sold out, two weeks before it even goes to press. No, I never saw that coming. Wow.
Since I announced that it was sold out, I've gotten a lot of emails from people asking me please, please, please, if a spare one turns up, could they buy it from me?
Well, like I said before, I kept a small number aside for myself, but I really want to hang on to them. At the same time, I don't like people being disappointed.
So I decided I'd sell ONE MORE from my private stash. But who to give it to? The guy who asked first? The guy who knew me the longest?
Not being able to make up my mind one way or the other about who to give it to, I just decided I'll put it on eBay, and let people bid for it. I've already done well enough from this wonderfully insane adventure, so to keep the good karma coming, whatever it sells for, high or low, I'll give the proceeds to charity.
I'll let y'all know when it's up. Thanks Again. Seriously.
[UPDATE:] As for the people who have already ordered a print; we're going to press hopefully in the next few days. I'm really behind in my e-mail [I blame the Holiday Season, mostly], so I should be contacting y'all shortly. Thanks for your patience AND your support. Rock on.
ok, back to work...
Is it the 5th of January already?
Damn, I was enjoying goofing off...
I have so much crap to do, it's off the scale...
Most days, I love my job. Today is not one of them. Arrgh...

desertmanhattan update
["DesertManahattan". 4 x 8". Ink, Acrylic and Pencil on Canvas etc...]
Progress on "DesertManhattan" has been slow these last few weeks- I've been busy with other projects, mostly the prints.
That being said, I've still able to occasionally sneak into the studio and work on it some more- usually late at night, when I've been having trouble sleeping.
It's looking good. If I can get it done by March, I'll be happy. Rock on.

I drew this one from memory, sitting in a coffee shop... it captures the vibe of living out here pretty well...
1997
This is a cartoon about the year, 1997. I drew it yesterday, sitting over at Harry's Tinaja. More specifically, it's about December, 1997, when I started drawing cartoons on the back of business cards- mostly in bars and coffee shops. You can read more of the backstory here.
What a crazy path it has been so far. Rock on.

print update: bluetrain almost sold out
["Bluetrain"- the new gapingvoid print. Click on image to enlarge etc.]
[Update: Bluetrain is already sold out. Thanks, Everybody!]
The print is an edition of eighty-five. So far seventy-five are accounted for, including the few I'm keeping for myself. Sales were pretty brisk right up until everything closed down for Christmas. I'm still a bit stunned about how well this wee adventure has gone, frankly.
So now I have ten left for sale. Full details are here. For the last ten, the price is $250 each, which far less than I think we'll be selling the next edition for. Hope that's OK with y'all.
Again, THANK YOU ALL for supporting this random act of insanity on my part. Rock on.
[UPDATE:] By the time I had finished writing this very short post, the number left was down to eight prints. 15 minutes later, that number was down to seven. Wow. [UPDATE:] One hour later- only five left. w00t. [UPDATE:] Fifteen minutes later- only four left. Eek! [UPDATE:] Five minutes later- only three left. Ummm... [UPDATE:] Next Morning- SOLD OUT!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
