guitar boy

guitarboy

i met my hubbahubba in college. he tried valiantly to teach me how to play guitar. i gave up because it was much nicer to listen to him play than to play myself. through the years we’ve been together he’s played in a band called monsters are not myths. the band gave me some of my first chances to create art that left my sketchbook and was seen by others… my art became flyers, posters and album covers. his music and band chartered many firsts, and as the band is playing their last show, i drew this for him & them.

thank you for all the inspiration.

(and, if you’re in san francisco, join me at their last show tomorrow night)

champions of change

obama

last week was a whirlwind! the event at the white house was wonderful, i felt incredibly happy to be a part of such an amazing group of inspiring and hard working individuals. i’ve never felt so patriotic!

we didn’t get a chance to meet Obama, but I created this piece for him – you can see the video of the event here and i speak about my thoughts when creating it. thank you again for all of your support – i am still in a happy state of shock. i’m also including a few photos – there was a post event where i shared some of my work, and me and the hubbahubba at lincoln memorial ^_^

have a wonderful week!
