This past weekend was the 24th Annual AM-JAM TATTOO EXPO in Syracuse/Liverpool NY, where Winky Dink Ink’s Bobby Ciffone and Matt Truiano participated in the festivities. It was an impressive convention that I expect to attend every year from now on. So many talented artists from all over set up shop at the Holiday Inn with tattoo enthusiasts mingling and getting tattooed everywhere you turned.
I’ll be showing my ever expanding series of birds with the newest fuzzy little guys and prints available for purchase! Check it out at Mr. Smalls Jazz Club in Pittsburgh, PA.

It’s all about what you can do with what you have, and Peter Callesen recently started to mesmerize people with his brilliant paper sculptures. Read More…
An architect friend has been working with Joel Fitzpatrick, rumor is there should be a new site released soon with some of her work on there. Thought this was a pretty cool stop animation project…
It’s also been a while since I checked up on the Cracker Jack Gang. I hadn’t seen this one yet, check it out.
Kids Love Peace was created by ICY And SOT from Iran, Tabriz using 6 layers of stencils, giving the piece and extremely lifelike feel to it. I’ve seen a few stencil art works and I am impressed by the precision and detail in each stencil which makes it look like someone did this freehand.
This December, Factory Fresh pulls out all the stops as we welcome The London Polic and Galo as they return to New York to celebrate more than a decade in the game.
If you’re going to be in Brooklyn tomorrow I highly recommend stopping by Factory Fresh for an incredible art showing of The London Police and Galo. Factory Fresh is located at 1053 Flushing Avenue between Morgan and Knickerbocker, off the L train Morgan Stop, the art show called “Fresh Geezers” and starts at 7pm sharp. The show will run up until January 10th 2010.
Make some time to get there is you’re around, it should be great! Enjoy
“On one hand urbanscreen is a group of free media artists and architects, dealing with research and development of experimental media installations with the aim to stage urban areas. On the other hand urbanscreen acts as a professional agency which translates the creative potential of this current art form onto the dialogue between commerce and art.” – Urbanscreen on Vimeo
For some reason this Facade Projection project by Urbanscreen had me hooked, I found this video a couple days ago and it kinda left me in a daze, my eyes were locked on and I could not turn away.
A few months back cruisin’ around the webs I heard about this sticker place that prints stickers.
Scoping out their website, I discovered a fun project they were doing where you decorate an envelope containing a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope, send it to them, and they send back fun stickers.
So…
Sarah, and I sent them in, and check it out! They put our illustrated envelopes on the flickr stream.
In return they sent us some awesome stickers that we added to our bicycle rack / sticker collection two by six.
(Notice our awesome charlie brown Christmas tree, acquired via the barter system from the Hadzor Forest in exchange for one carton of heavy whipping cream.)
The ‘S.A.S.E Shindig’ has concluded but you can read more about it and see lots of wild mail/envelope art on the sticker robot s.a.s.e. page.
I know Halloween past a month ago, but I was talking to my brother and he told me about this youtube video about some guy making a Transformers costume of Bumblebee. He explained to me when the guy stood up he looked like Bumblebee transformed which is pretty cool, but the amazing part about it was as the guy kneeled down the proper way he looked like a miniature Camaro. I had to see it for myself, so here’s the video.
