If you are in or around the Bellingham WA area, you can see five of my collages in Jinx Art Space's annual "Pink and Red" Valentines show, beginning this Friday, February 5th. The pieces will be up for two months. You can contact the gallery about pricing and/or shipping info here.
The pieces available are the following:
Meat is Not Murder
Blush
Sex Pills
Sugar Lights
..and a new 3-dimensional piece I don't yet have a good photo of, as well.
Buying Guidelines
Thanks for your interest in buying my artwork.
If you'd like to purchase any of the originals, please drop me an email with "I want to make you rich" in the subject line and I'll reply with a confirmation email with payment info (PayPal, snail mail for check, etc.) and my eternal thanks and supply you with any other details you might need.
All cartoons and illustrations are ink on bristol unless specified otherwise. Dimensions are approximate total paper size, not image size. These drawings were made for reproduction and the originals reflect this: expect to find white-out, paste-ups, zip-a-tone screens, etc. on their surfaces. In some cases the images you see here were scanned from clean photocopies, not the original artwork. Also, many of the panels have been cut or torn from larger comic book pages or sketchbooks; in those cases where the original artwork is not of a uniform rectangular shape, the drawings will be mounted on a square paper backing.
The collages are made from assorted papers as much as a hundred years old and in varying condition; it's safe to say the work is not necessarily "archival quality". However it should last your lifetime with a modicum of care. I do suggest framing them flat against the glass, without a matte -- occasionally I've seen them buckle or wrinkle a bit, otherwise. All collages will be mounted on black gatorboard with a 1-inch border on each side; dimensions given are approximate image size excluding this border.
Every care will be taken in the packaging of the work, which will then be mailed flat via the USPS unless other arrangements are made. All prices include shipping within the USA; if you reside outside the country and are interested in obtaining any of my work, I'm sure we can come to an agreement about price, etc. -- just drop me a line. Be aware, though, that shipping large envelopes overseas is very expensive, very slow and subject to the whims of petty little men in absurd uniforms.
If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thank you!

An overdue word of thanks to the following sites which have been kind enough to mention - many times in the last few months - articles here at my humble interweb abode:
Newsarama
PCL Linkdump
Journalista!
The Comics Reporter
All of them deserve a daily visit -- make haste!
Referral
I've been invited to join the group art blog Eaten by Ducks. I'm certainly the least talented of the contributors, so if you're at all interested in my work, I suggest you have a look at all the fellas' work over there - it's worth your while.
One Loser's Downward Spiral
Just a quick note to let the three of you reading this know that I have written a little piece over at Lucid Screening, one in a series several of the contributors have also scribed, called "Stages of a Cinephile" and charting formative highlights (and lowlights) in each of our filmgoing experiences. Have a look here, if you're as interested as I am in my own banal history of passive nothingness. Ah, it's not that bad - I get to write about monkeys in the first paragraph. Don't say I don't know how to please a crowd.
I Never Forget a Face...
Go here, please, for scans of a Groucho Marx gag book from the 1960s.
Adding, Keeping
Have a look over in the "ETC" section of the site - I've put up some nice illos by British artist Charles Keeping.
Childcraft Miscellania
A varied dozen images from an old Childcraft Library volume can be seen here.
