Today, a new version of my Inspiration Strikes print goes on sale, along with a brand new female counterpart. Each sold seperately, you can purchase them HERE!

  Greetings folks. Happy February!

   This Saturday I will be one of the artists with work for sale at the Gimme Shelter Benefit happening at First Ave.  At LEAST 50% of all proceeds will go to the Red Cross in their Haiti recovery effort.

and in case you don't want to do that, hit the Turf Club for a fine night of rocking:

 

  Here's a new poster for the Twin Cities based comedy group Omega Wolf.  Everything they do is worth seeing...  if you like to laugh, that is...

 

 

   I just finished up work on a poster for the band Crime In Stereo, and you can purchase it HERE through their label's website. Bridge Nine Records also has a deal where you can buy the poster AND get a download of Crime In Stereo's new album "I Was trying To Describe You To Someone' for a mere $25.00.  Bargain! 

 

 

 

 

   Poster production is back in full swing. I have screenprints in the works for Crime in Stereo and Song of Zarathustra, plus I am aiming to return to my roots... black and white flyers.  I'll be doing at least one flyer a month this year for a show at the Triple Rock.  Here's the first.

 

Happy 2010 (twenty ten) everyone!

After talking about it for awhile, it looks like that Project Placemats will be taking off this year. A collaboration between myself, Tim Shindler, Christopher Bowman, and Ben Weaver, we will be throwing all kinds of drawings and writing up on the Placemats blog, and eventually start making hard copies to distribute  (for FREE!) in random locations around the Twin Cities.

I am also beginning a new series of prints, one for every month of the year, and will reveal more when the first one is completed.

  I have also been listing some of my more rare posters up in my Etsy.om store. Check HERE to see if there is something you might like for yourself. 

 Cheers! 

  I've just about wrapped up my move to Saint Paul, and I need to thank EVERYONE who helped me out during my three day moving sale.  I was very happy to not have to pack and unpack the work you all purchased. Again, THANK YOU.

   Here are the last two prints I made at Motel Jim, both of which will be in the show Metal Masters show opening at Wootini Gallery in Carrboro, North Carolina on Jan 8th and showing through March 8th. Titled Death Metal and Alien Pin Up respectively, you can purchase your own copy by clicking on their titles above.

 

       For the second time this year, I am moving my studio. However, this time it is not down a mere two flights of stairs. It is across a river! After 6 years of life here at Motel Jim, I am moving out and over to St. Paul to share a house with my fiance Nikki (btw, I am engaged, which is pretty big news too!).
      To help this transition along, I am having a 3 day sale, Monday Dec 7th through Wednesday Dec 9th. It is my hope to lighten my inventory (less to move is a very appealing idea), help my moving costs, and provide all of you with a chance to load up on my work at a great price during this tough economic gift giving season.
     My Etsy store is the epicenter of the event. EVERYTHING will be marked down, and I've been listing new work on a near daily basis for a good while. I've been cleaning out the closets and emptying out the dust covered boxes, putting up for sale work that you have probably never seen. I will also have most of the prints in my website's store marked down, as well as the items I have for sale in my Gigposters.com classified section. All work will be shipped by the end of the week, so you will have it in time to re-wrap it up for Christmas.

  Last night at the Soo Vac gallery in Uptown MPLS, this years Toys in the Attic show opened to great fanfare and success. It is up for one more day, Saturday Dec 5th from 11-4pm. After that the show comes down.

 The print I made for the show is titled ' The Best Crash in the Galaxy', and you can buy a copy for yourself HERE in my store.

 

    I've got my hands dirty with a brand new project.  I am doing daily comic strips, for the first time ever. They'll be autobiographical, abstract, fictional, and hopefully entirely entertaining and fulfilling.  You can follow my antics here in my blog DWITT Dailys.

   Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

In grand fashion, JoAnna James returned to her home of the Twin Cities with a fantastic performance at the Cedar last night. I was lucky enough to have done a poster for the event, and you can CLICK HERE to buy it now in my store.

 

  Paintings, drawings, original poster art and more can be found in my Etsy.com store! I've been creating a fresh wave of new Birdoliths, Angel Deconstructions, and even conventional still lifes.  Do some early holiday shopping, or treat yourself to some hand made, one of a kind artwork. I list new work regularly, so check in often!

  It's that Halloween time of year, and I am happy to say that this weeks issue of the City Pages features an appropriately themed, fully painted cover by me. Look for it around the Twin Cities starting Oct. 28th through Nov. 3rd.

 

 

   Big thanks to Surly Brewing Co. for organizing a fantastic event. Thanks to everyone who attended Darkness Day, and thanks to those who stopped by my table to chat and buy some work.  I had a terrific time!

    If you missed it or were unable to attend, you can still buy one of my SURLY DARKNESS posters HERE.

    The day is fast approaching. Darkness Day. Surly Brewing Co.'s grand affair where they release their Darkness beer (and my poster). Bands. Beer. Happiness.

   On Sun Oct. 25th, you can buy my Darkness poster here in my webstore.  It's 19 x 25 inches, 2 colors on 110 lb. smart white paper from Mr. French.  The largest poster I have printed to this day in my studio. 

 

Here's a new art print I created to fit the Halloween season (One that I think goes very well with my Zombie Fever print) , and was specifically created for this art show:

ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK: A Collection of prints inspired by the dark corners of 42nd street. Prints from 24 artists will be displayed in the lobby of a makeshift grindhouse for one full day during Exhumed Film's Horror-thon on Oct 24th, 2009 in Philadelphia, PA.
