So yeah, it's been a while. Things slowed down here for a few hours so I figured I'd post some new photos....

Go on! Don't be shy! (or lazy! This is directed to you Tyrant....I know you were on cause you asked me a question about this blog recently!)....leave a comment!
Hey. You. Yeah you. I have this cool feature that allows me to track the location of people who visit this blog. Don't worry, I'm not getting all creepy stalker on you. I'm interested in discovering where you're from (in general. Please don't give me addresses), how often you visit this blog, why you visit here regularly (if you do) and how you found out about it? I get a lot of visits from Sunnyvale, CA, Plano, TX, and a few from overseas. I don't think I know people from these places, but it would be cool if I did! I just have this overwhelming curiosity. Indulge me if you would, and leave a comment that includes answers to the aforementioned questions. You can add extra info if you so desire. Thank you in advance!
Here's my newest piece. It's for an upcoming concert that's being promoted by my good friend Betty (of the infamous Bettie's Beat Basement). Her show is on at 10-midnight on Thursday nights. 91.7 if you're in the area of UConn. If you can't get reception, you can stream the show from whus.org. If you're into underground hip-hop, check out her show. I constantly hear stuff that I've never heard before! Enjoy the art (and go to the show!):
Here are some photos I shot after the last big storm. It was something like 45 degrees outside, I had a load of laundry going and had nothing to do. So here's what I shot:
-I shot this one the other morning. It was raining out. I was wishing it was warm and dry so I could ride.
Sorry for the lack of updates lately....I've been super busy @ work and with my art. I finally got a day to myself today, rode the skatepark for a couple of hours, fixed my BMX and found this awesome new (to me) band. Check em out on myspace: Little Barrie. Some great fucking tunes! Here's a photo of a light saber battle on Christmas Eve to make up for the lack of updated material!
Long time since I last posted...It's absolutely pissing rain outside...should make for a super slow day at work. Anyway, CBYD is hitting the studio tonight to record our EP. Once we've mastered it we'll put a few tune up for enjoyment on our myspace page. Check it out now for a few older tunes and request to be our friend if you like what you hear!
Here's another piece that I've been commissioned for. This is just the sketch stage....more to come. If you're interested in a piece of original art for yourself, get in touch with me.
Kami and I went snowboarding last Friday. Actually, it was a great little unexpected escape...she called me at work and suggested that we leave Thursday night to beat the storm and ride all day Friday. And we did! It began snowing around 3am and didn't let up until 3pm. You could make a run, get to the top to make another and your tracks were covered! Mid-day we ran into Jay and Frank and rode with them for the rest of the afternoon. Ate some good food, played in the snow all day and drove back on roads that were completely plowed by the time we set out to go home. Truly epic! The art I promised is still on its way. Hang tight!
Here are some sketches I did for Tony T's new tattoo. This is turning out to be another perfect series where I can post the whole process from start to finish. Enjoy!
Went out for a street session with a small crew. David B and Stock made up the big wheel end of things while Tony T and I held it down for the 20-inchers. Rode a few couple of spots we hadn't been to in a while. Watched Dave max out his chainring trying for a huge bank to sub-rail abubuca. Check out Tony's site for some cool photos. I went sans camera so I could just enjoy riding. Sometimes it's fun to just rip around without lugging a big bag full of gear on your back. I feel like we're trying to beat the weather clock. Once it starts freezing rain and snow I know the sessions will probably scale back a bit. We'll have to hit up our inside spots then!
