Some New Decks...

Ok, i only got a few new ones done... and then JUST sold one of the them! It's great that they're selling fast, but man, i was hoping to get 20 done for my next show!! However that's in 17 days from now... which means i have to do at least 2 a night since i'm actually supposed to hang them up a few days before the show... hmmm... time to get crackin'... and crazy!!

Looks like i might not be celebrating my birthday after all :(

GAH!!!

Bye Bye Boardies

Because the original piece i did for the 2nd Carded Show was bought by a man from Houston, Texas, i had to paint something else to hang up at the Ayden Gallery. I didn't want to show anything old, so i did these 2 new boards.

Both were sold at the show! Part of me was super stoked, but the other part was upset because now i have to do more boards for my shows coming up in June!

Dang nabbit!!

The 2nd Annual Carded Show (Part 2) -the pics-

So "Carded Is Back" (aka: the 2nd Annual Carded Part 2) was held at Ayden Gallery. This time each artist got to submit the original art that they used for their card. If the original piece was not available anymore(in my case, the painting i used to submit for my card was already bought and is now hanging somewhere in Houston, Texas!), then other pieces were accepted to hang in the gallery. So for this show, i painted 2 new skateboards and both sold!

It turned out to be a very busy night(i just came from my first Roller Derby game and was heading to the Cheaper Show Announcement Party right after Ayden).

I bumped into a few friends of mine at Ayden who also submitted for the Carded show. Here they are with their wonderful pieces!!!

Me, of course with "Mouthie Bear Likes To Talk About Himself"
and "Al R. G. McGee"
(both now in Houston, Texas)

Peter had two different cards- one with Parnell Collective and the other was a solo piece. Look at him high kick!!!

Here's my buddy Cammy. I used to work with Cam in animation, and now we jam out in our rock band called 'Rain City Murders'. He's one of our geet players! The picture at the bottom is of Jessica next to Cam's card. Jess was the inspiration for Cam's art piece! Cutie pie!!

And then there's Tony! He was having a hard time posing next to his art pieces...
but i thought he did a fine job! haha VERY serious...
