The black lines were painted live during a performance last Fall, the color was added recently, and less spectacularly, in my basement.

Thanks to all of the ink-clad vixens who rolled away from this weekend’s East Coast Roller Derby Extravaganza with new Ghosticorn swag.

During a recent visit to a Philadelphia Craft Festival, I couldn’t help but notice the inordinate number of items featuring owls or octopi. Since they seem to be the animal darlings of the independent craft world, I whipped up this hybrid for Ghosticorn Apparel.

Acrylic on Paper • MilkBoy Acoustic

Last Saturday evening, Milkboy Acoustic hosted a reception for my month-long art installation, Withdrawn. The evening featured musical performances by my pals, The Hulihees and Mattowax. I painted live throughout both sets resulting in dozens of original works and a sore shoulder.

I came across this circa 1996 doodle while paging through an old sketchbook. I thought that the character was too deliciously condescending and smug to go to waste so I turned him into a Ghosticorn tee design. It’s always nice to give younger me the opportunity to collaborate with older me.
