So, we finally made it to the Northwest with all of our worldly possessions intact and are now safely tucked away in a thicket of trees just outside of Portland!
Our neighborhood is about 95 percent German and 95 percent cute old ladies, with a sausage place on every corner, so of course I kind of love it!

Come Spring we'll be looking for a place to call our own, but in the meantime, here's a shot of our first tiny snowstorm in our new temporary backyard...



Note: This fairytale shed is possibly my new favorite thing ever!

Also, now that we're settling in, I'm slowly but surely, and finally, organizing and updating my website, and, in lieu of a pending major overhaul for now, will be adding new stuff practically every day.
For starters:



Some drawings and studies and odds and ends from a few recent shows are finally up for sale HERE!



And, even more exciting for the budget conscious, a whole new slew of prints have been posted to my SHOP!

Hello Portland!

dear bay area...
please pencil me in!
thank you!

apparently there is a huge corporate clothing chain in spain that has two different spring collections in stores right now based entirely around graphics that are STOLEN FROM MY ART:

the funny part is that they could have just ASKED ME about designing a collection or two, instead of hiring some cut rate art student to create a hideous cut and paste job of my work.

if you see these collections around, please note that I DID NOT DESIGN THEM. i can't tell you NOT to buy them without risk of some dastardly corporate lawyer turning around and suing ME for defamation, but i can say that i did not CREATE, LICENSE, GET PAID A DIME FOR, OR APPROVE THESE APPROPRIATIONS OF MY WORK IN ANY WAY.

the culprits:
womensecret.com/

they also released a whole collection recently with graphics stolen from freaklub who actually had a day in court with them about it. i've been waiting to hear back from them before i decide what to do, but no luck yet... it seems like my only real option is to serve them with a cease and desist, even though those things NEVER STOP ANYONE. what to do, what to do?
