silent comedy * hand-crafted animation * live music + sound fx

Amuse Bouche 2011
ComedyShorts - Clowns on Film
The Brick Theater - williamsburg brooklyn
September 16th - 10pm
tickets



Bony Lil rides again! This will be only the second time these films have screened in New York (the first being in the fall of 2008 at Joe's Pub) This time, they are joined by other great clown films of Jeff Seal and Morro and Jasp as well as an animation/live performance from the multi-talented Isaac Littlejohn Eddy. With each new screening of these films co-creators Zea Barker and Michael Pope look for new folks to collaborate with and create new music for these silent pieces. Clifton Hyde has stepped to the task and will be sure to bring the funk as this is not his first rodeo in the genre. All sound effects are done live as well by Barker and Pope and their bag of tricks.

This is a special night in the month long clown festival Amuse Bouche taking place at the Brick Theater in Williamsburg Brooklyn (Lorimer Metropolitan L/G) THis night in particular will be hosted by the fabulous Audrey Crabtree and John Towsen!

There are a bunch of great live shows happening all month. Check'm out!

Illustration Portfolio!

I have a spanky new site with the folks over at Cargo Collective.



I'm polishing up my work to see about making a living at illustration! editorial mostly, but certainly am not too choosy at this point in the game. It began in earnest while doing that 15 piece slideshow for the Atlantic Monthly. Loved doing it. Let me know if you know of agents or publication or beautiful archival printers or bands in need of graphix or people needing tattoos designed or... anything else you can think of.

check it out and pass it on!

Sketchbook Project 2011: West Coast

I made a sketchbook for the Sketchbook Project 2011.
The sketchbooks have been on an eight city that started (and will end) in at the Brooklyn Art Library in February. There are sketchbooks from around the world made according to a handful of different themes, mine was It Will Be Fun, I Swear.

The books will be arriving on the west coast shortly. Seattle is the first stop.
June 10th - 12th the books will be on display at:
Form/Space Ateller
2407 1st Avenue
Seattle, WA 98121

Then, June 16th - 18th:
Madrone Studios
1417 15th St
San Francisco, CA

If you live in either of these fair cities, do go see. It's blast.

Ask for mine by name and I will get a little notification on my phone that you did and it will make my day.


For interested parties, they are currently gearing up for the 2012 edition. You can submit a sketchbook for next year's international tour.

For those outside those cities, check out the upcoming dates and check out my profile on the site. Soon the entire sketchbook will be scanned and available for viewing online.
