FFFFOUND! MYSELF!
Published June 27, 2009 POSTERS , Random/Personal Leave a CommentTags: ffffound, ghostland, jon smith, observatory, poster, T & A
Howdy, I just updated the Etsy store. There was some kind of error in the quantity of the Decembersits posters last week, I have relisted the remaining 10 copies I have and that is final, no more after that. The classified on Gigposters has been deleted so this is it.
There will be a “White Fawn” limited art print edition released soon but as for the Decemberists prints, what’s on Etsy is it for me.
I have also listed a couple art prints I found I had a couple extra copies of while cleaning out the flat files, there will be more blast from the past prints listed in the coming weeks as I come across pieces I didn’t realize I still had. Reason being, I’m a lot more organized now than I have been in the past so my accounting for older prints is a little sketchy as I’m going back and sorting everything out.
Sonic Youth Pitchfork.tv

I’m apparently way too caveman to embed the video here in the post but if you haven’t checked out Sonic Youth on pitchfork.tv click that shit, it’s pretty amazing.
And of course there’s a ton of other cool shit on Pitchfork but I’m boning up on the new Sonic Youth album(The Eternal) for the poster I’m doing with Nate and came across that rad video, and now sharing with ya’all….
Y’know Johnny Cash may have done some corny shit from time to time back in the day but at least he could blame that on drugs. When you’re on hard shit, you jump through hoops for the man to get boatloads of money so you can purchase your goofballs and you’re judgment isn’t always crystal clear.
I’m just wondering what Tim Mcgraw’s excuse is here:
Not that he’s got any cred as an actual “Country” artist but damn dude you’ve got to be desperate for cash or out of your goddamn mind to release a cologne. It’s an instant joke and I can’t imagine it will sell, unless the average middle aged Walmart mom is that creamy over Tim McGraw to buy a bottle for herself….or god forbid give it as a present to her husband and or baby daddy, worst gift ever.
I dunno I just saw that commercial while watching Conan on Hulu and it was the most unintentionally hilarious thing I’ve seen in a while.

Published June 19, 2009 POSTER SHOWS , POSTERS Leave a Comment
Fresh news from Daniel Smith(no relation and as far as I know he’s not the Art Supply store guy), curator/visionary of the Seattle Tehran Poster show:
“Hot off the presses + just in time for the Iranian Festival at Seattle Center, the exhibit catalog for The Seattle-Tehran Poster Show is ready! The full-color, dual-language (English-Persian), 36 page catalog documents the first exhibit of contemporary Iranian graphic design in the U.S. It will be available for $10 at the festival. Proceeds will go to the IACA (Iranian American Community Alliance).”
The Festival is tomorrow, June 20th. http://iaca-seattle.org/iranian-festival-seattle-center
The Seattle Terhan show debuted in 2008, you may have caught it if you attended Bumbershoot. The Seattle Moscow Poster Show is in the works for 2009, I believe the selections of my work in the upcoming show are my Black Angels and Ghostland NYE posters. These shows are very interesting and offer a fresh perspective on the poster world, literally. Check out the links below to see what it’s all about.
and it all started with 2007′s Seattle Havana Poster Show.
G’morning internet

In honor of The Hangover which I’m sure most of you have seen( best movie of the summer thus far) I figured I’d share the most embarrassing picture I have of myself on file.
It’s from almost a year ago, when I emerged from the grarliest hangover I’ve ever known minus a tooth with no recollection as to why. Long story short I was out on my friends boat at Seafair, vodka + no food, no sleep = BLACKOUT. At some point I lost my balance on the boat, faceplanted…
I’m just sharing this cuz it’s stupid funny and to let you readers know that as this blog rolls out it wont be all poster talk all the time. If I has amusing nuggets to drop I will do so at complete random.
Hey now! My print for The Decemberists in Atlanta are selling fast, just ran out in the etsy store but I still have a few left if you purchase through the gigposters classified. I set the quantity low in the etsy store as to not oversell and still keep a few for myself, friends etc. but for the time being I’ll keep the GP Classified up while I have a few to spare…might not be for long, playing it by ear.
“NIGHT OF THE CREEPS” Alamo Drafthouse poster
Published June 18, 2009 POSTERS Leave a CommentTags: alamo, alamo drafthouse, austin, glow, poster, screenprint
Behold my 4 color screen print for the Alamo Drafthouse’s special reunion screening of Night of the Creeps featuring Director Fred Dekker and most of the main cast. Measures 24″x36″includes glow in the dark green ink.
Twas a crazy experience getting this thing done in the time allotted me but for whatever reason I usually come up with my best stuff under retarded deadlines but I’m pretty damn happy with how this one turned out. Though I probably would have incorporated a couple more subtle elements from the film in the background if I had more time.
For now you can purchase them from Mondotees. And in a couple weeks and or when they sell out there you can get one at my etsy store.
