General Mills Cereal Monsters

This is a commission I did this weekend for a guy here in Dallas. His nickname is 'Gator', hence the monstrous alligator in the background.

Happy Halloween Folks!

Always ready to decompose for the camera and ever stunning as she shambled down the runway, Eva was a beauty queen of the undead.

Happy Halloween folks!

This is a 8" Qee Cat I customized. I thought it would be fun to do since Halloween is right around the corner. I made the fez and tassel from scratch. I'm pretty happy with how it came out!

More pics after the jump!

The Ghost of Smokey Joe

You can tell me I'm not wanted...
but the joint will still be haunted.
'Cause I'm the ghost of Smokey Joe!

I don't know if Cab Calloway ever did any Halloween concerts, but if he had, it would've been awesome. This poster is inspired by Cab's sequel to Minnie the Moocher. If you've never heard The Ghost of Smokey Joe, check it out. It's one of my favorite Halloween songs!

Available as a print at The Manly Art Shop. Just in time for Halloween!

Girls on Film

Girls on Film by Manly Art Hot for Teacher

These are my pieces for the I Want My Music Video Art Show opening tonight at The Meltdown Gallery in Hollywood, CA. They are based on the videos for the unrated version of Duran Duran's Girls on Film and Van Halen's Hot for Teacher.

The two paintings I did for this show are the first ones I've actually painted all of the type and graphics. Normally I treat my pulp style pieces like a traditional assignment and do all the layout stuff digitally. I'm still figuring out how I feel about it.

There are some amazing artists in this show. I'm really not sure how I got mixed in with them. I have a feeling mine are going to be the crap pieces in the show. If you live in the LA area, I highly recommend going to check it out.

Space Junk™ Trading Cards- Preview Set

It's official! The Space Junk™ Trading Cards Preview Pack will be making it's debut this weekend at Fan Days in Irving, TX. If you're in the DFW area, come by and pick up your very own set of 5"x7" awesomeness!
