I made this clock for a show in Portland. It's at the Pony Club (the same place that showed my drawings earlier this year). Anyway, the show is called 11:11 and it's all timepieces, and it will be up during March.

On our final afternoon in Mexico, Corrie and I were able to spend a few hours exploring the city of Playa del Carmen. You can explore yourself via our photos on Flickr, a sample of which can be seen above.

A double page spread for El Bosque magazine. Some of you might notice I've drawn this instrument being played before, a "Gusle". Except this time I've tried to show what the musician is actually singing about. This image is for a themed "Forests, plants and flowers" issue.

The NY Press is doing a story about a city labor leader who's proposing that vehicles pay double the current rates to enter the city and mass transit made free. So for the cover illustration I created this image of the NYC subway under some Mumbai-esque crowding conditions. Click the image or here for a larger version.

Corrie and I just attended a wedding in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Prior to the festivities we took a tour of the interior with Alltournative - Off Track Adventures. We had an amazing time! Our tour, "Maya Encounter", included the exploration of the ancient city of Cobá, the opportunity to climb Nohoch Mul (the tallest pyramid in the Yucatan), a rappel down into and then swim within a cenote, a canoe trip across and then zip-line over a lagoon, monkey sightings, a purification ritual, AND a lunch prepared by local Mayan women. It was an incredible day! Above is an image of the lagoon, Punta Laguna, we canoed across and "zipped" over. Photographs of our entire day can be seen on Flickr.

The past couple of weeks have been a drag, doing real bland corporate illustration work. To keep myself from going insane I've tried to find enough time to sketch some of the other ideas that have been bouncing round my head for my new graphic novel, which I should hopefully be starting in the next fortnight. Hopefully.
You can learn more about my comic plans at an online interview with comics Brainiac, Matt Badham here.

I recently had the pleasure of collaborating with the musical duo Rara Avis(Terri Hron and Robbert van Hulzen) on the illustration and design for their new album, One Fell Swoop. They are based in Amsterdam, and make strange, mysterious music that spans many centuries and many cultures. You will hear dissonant medieval sounds coming from a hand-carved recorder, traditional South Indian passages, a home made toobophone and electronic rhythms to complete the collage.

The title of their album is from a great line in MacBeth:

"All the pretty ones? Did you say all? O hell-kite! All? What, all my pretty chickens and their dam At one fell swoop?"

So I ran with that dark imagery for the cover. I also had the fun task of designing the whole package for the CD case. I enjoy deign projects like this from time to time, and I had secretly always wanted to design someone's album. Unfortunately I don't have the final package in my hands yet, but I will post some photos in a few weeks when I get my mitts on one.

Last weekend I created this illustration for The Riverfront Times of St. Louis highlighting an article they did about The Clowder House, a local cat retirement home (for when the owner gets too old to care for the kitty). It was fun showing the details like the cat meds, the pajamas, the rubik's cube and the Wii. Click the image to see a larger version.

Illustrating an All Girls Skateboard Competition at a skatepark in Manchester presented itself as welcoming break from the other heavily art directed illustration I've been doing, and was fun to do. It finally gave me the chance to play around with some hand rendered type and to indulge in some 50's/60's surf style graphics. The hardest part was trying to come up something that wasn't sexist, or even just plain girly. I dared myself to use pink, is that p.c. these days?

I've been keeping a small moleskin sketchbook in my pocket to augment my bigger, badder sketchbook. This group was sketched on the NYC subway in recent weeks.

I started this collage with a belly full of food that these guys probably just laugh at.

The title of this illustration is in portuguese because it is an expression that loses all the sense if I translate, but literally means "the casings heart."

. . .

I always tried to create some abstract illustration ... but I never came to a satisfactory result. In these last days I started to read a book about Gustav Klimt works. This illustration is a reference of his paintings.

I hope that here for a while I start to release my works without a tablet and do more things with acrylic and oil... I hope that until the end of this year I already have some paintings =)

This is second in a series of pattern-like illustrations I've been working on. This one is based on New York City. The first in the series was based off a ghost story.
