More sticker designs…

The Twin Cities is gearing up for art sales. Most of the sellers know they need to craft usable art in order to sell well, so most of it will be wearable items. Shop local, etc…

Found a better use for the living fossil artwork; converted to around 3x4-inch vinyl stickers a person “could” slap around certain places. Not that I’m encouraging that.

(I’ll produce these as soon as some money comes in.)

Redraw this? Or reprint this as is?
(45+ screen posters sold out in 2015.)
Here’s an old piece; been reused as a book cover and the hands appear in many other items.

This was my third screen print done, where I learned butcher paper and acrylic ink don’t work. Three colors; two overlapping to achieve a fourth darker tone.

…think I might redraw/reprint this concept.

New sketch: two birds, one stone…

(Gonna just draw every idea that’s even slightly erotic until something seems worthy of an upcoming event in February…)

Bike frame busted over a month ago. After a long journey, here is El Bikamino IV.

I love bicycles, HATE installing the cables and chain. Just fuck my hands and wrists right up; not like I need them for EVERYTHING I do…

There’s “oh, a werewolf”…
—and then there’s, “what the hell is that?”

Make them like this in the movies, please.
Dust n' Dread update! We finally get to see The Creature :)

Do we start off the same way as last time? When I say, “I know this looks odd — but trust me, I know what I’m doing with this”?

…because I don’t know what I’m doing. All I know is, everyone told me to do this for the upcoming SafeWord event…

Catch @pseudo-ersatz.bsky.social at Norseman Distillery through the end of December! His framed screen prints are all for sale and available for purchase via the QR code on the labels!

Ode to Black Mirror.

One of the few shows that is too intense for me to binge.

(18x24-inch, 3-color screen print - one color is a metallic silver online images can’t do justice.)

Busy at the studio this weekend. This includes the show hanging at Wabasha Brewing, and the show hanging at Norseman Distillery. (And admin work to be done at ALTR Gallery.)

From the cellular level up to skill sharing/training — COOPERATION has been the basis of most higher evolutions.

Now we must explain why CHILD RAPE is wrong to the metaphorical single-cell political trolls — in record reaction time to the evidence that their hero is (ALSO) a child rapist.

Werewolf Wednesday; there’s something just perfect in the figure’s hair that I haven’t been able to duplicate since… I should draw a werewolf roller-derby girl.

(…the futile feeling of gathering drawing ideas/references in a world ready to collapse…)

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide.

Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

Reposting this art for two reasons: 1. I had to rebuild the digital file from past films due to losing the original. 2. I plan to change the colors to make a trans rights sticker (living fossil = “always existed; always will”)

...website ownership doubled in price over the last six months; updated the shop to reflect the most recent year's prints to make this worth it.

The sales table merch is equally as incredible as everything on the walls. So much of this art is small, so prices are affordable to most attendees. And Norseman Distillery has been doing wonderful things along with us - including giving the artists in the show a drink discount.
miniARTure kicked off last night with a big crowd! These mighty minis had people snapping up art all night long!

Join us again TONIGHT 6-10pm at ALTR Gallery! @clevergirl-jp.bsky.social

One time I got really high and thought this was the best idea I ever had

Tarot card: The Star.

OAC will probably make the Tarot Art Show an annual event, and so I need another idea to illustrate…

(BlueSky will no doubt hide this behind an adult content tag, yet: 1. I consider this functional nudity, not sexual, 2. Star is immortal - this isn’t su!c!de, its renewal.)

Next thing the OAC owned ALTR Gallery has going on: miniARTure show. Here’s some previews of what artists turned in:
