NO BIG DEAL

september's Jux was super special. i got to hang out with one of my all-time favorites, the great David Shrigley, while he made the clay letters in his portrait below. AND THEN i also did a cover story on the legendary Daniel Clowes, whose comics and movies i've loved for years. interviewing both of these dudes in one month was a dream. they were very gracious and cool as hell.

Juxtapoz March and May 2012

i interviewed these two very amazing people.

'NTENTZ

coolest ever art show at Anno Domini gallery. music was played INTENTZ and Magnanimous and COMFORT SLACKS performed. it was the greatest night of my life.

2012 is here, birds!

better wrap-up 2011.
i wrote lots of Jux features in 2011, with more coming in 2012. you should subscribe at once.
i painted many hecksagons. they'll be in a gallery show in SF later this month.

they are inspired by hex signs from Dutch folk art, in case you didn't know.

i also started this blog, SEE LISTEN, where we pair one song with one piece of art. it was mentioned on Lost at E Minor, where I also did some guest blogging last fall. Here's a sample post:

Jeff and I were both invited to contribute art for this super cool zine, Midnight Snack.
