Imagine a looping lightsaber sound effect, and I think we’ve got it.

Good Lord: I think Tolliver needs some ice cream after that; I know I would. Brutal. Mmmm. Ice cream.
Jane Lynch is Awesome

Sneaky Gays- Swish It Up: “Adam Lambert: You’re on the right path, but still too subtle.” That is true. I’m not really sure where Adam Lambert is coming from. With the football shoulder pads and feathers, he does look like he’s about to take the field and drive 70 yards, Adrian Peterson-style, at a moment’s [...]
New Kenwoode Panels: The Booze Calleth
Posted in Art, Booze, illustration, kenwoode, tagged kenwoode, Steven Pressfield, The Booze Calleth, The War of Art on March 25, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
Finished another page section. It’s getting detail-y-er. It is almost impossible to describe how difficult it is to sit down and draw these daily, but I’m doing my best. A actor/writer friend suggested Steven Pressfield‘s book, The War of Art (which I cannot suggest enough for everyone), and it describes and names the process of [...]

Finished the second section of Page 9. “Will and imagination, tied, the keys to all success provide Silver and gold, together bound, bring daydreams down to solid ground.” -Mike and Mack the Snakes, Promethea, Issue 12, by Alan Moore

Eat it, New York and Boston. Eat your own Tears of Unfathomable Sadness. With a No-Trade clause, son. Sorry. Couldn’t resist. Also, The Onion chimes in.
Ben Folds Does “Ode To Merton” in Charlotte, NC
Posted in Art, Comedy, Creativity, Music, tagged Bank of America, Ben Folds, Charlotte, David Cross, Merton, North Carolina, One, U2 on March 22, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
Ben Folds did a little ode to Merton, The Chat Roulette Guy the other night in Charlotte. I think Merton is the most immediate, apt and artistic response to Chat Roulette, really, which has a bit of Web 1.0 vibe to it- a little dangerous, a little anonymous, random little rabbit holes that you can [...]
Illustrator Spotlight: Daniel m. Davis & His “Monster Commute”
Posted in Art, Comics, Creativity, Design, Innovation, tagged Daniel M. Davis, Monster Commute, Steamcrow on March 16, 2010 | 1 Comment »
Stumbled upon this the other day, whilst hunting for reference photos. Daniel m. Davis’ really beautiful web comic, Monster Commute. The man’s work with illustrator is sublime and his color sense is impeccable. I’ve only gone through a number of panels, but each page is just a joy to behold. His work is just remarkable- [...]
Music That’s Kicking My Butt at the Moment: We Were Promised Jetpacks, Mumford & Sons
Posted in Art, Creativity, Music, tagged Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros, Mumford & Sons, We Were Promised Jetpacks on March 12, 2010 | 27 Comments »
Had two separate friends send me videos of two bands I hadn’t heard of (which mostly likely everyone else has)- We Were Promised Jetpacks and Mumford & Sons (brilliant, brilliant names, by the way). The songs that slayed me, It’s Thunder and It’s Lightning, and The Cave are pretty great, along with the nice little [...]

Finally posted the latest couple of Kenwoode pages. You can check ‘em out here and here. “Finished, it’s finished, nearly finished, it must be nearly finished Grain upon grain, one by one, and one day, suddenly, there’s a heap, a little heap, the impossible heap.” – Samuel Beckett, Endgame

I don’t follow college ball, mostly because I went to art school, and I don’t have an alma mater team, unless there’s a World Champion Thunderdome of Chiaroscuro or Font Kerning of which I am unaware, where you’re allowed to use a color wheel, linseed oil and a mace. (The Color-arnage!) I do, however, follow [...]

Abso-mfing-remarkable: I fear they’ve innovated themselves into a corner. I mean, how the hell are they gonna top that?
