I feel like I'm going top die, recovering from a flu this weekend. :(

Sooo Busy.

Getting @noiseapparel's merch table all set up and planning the tent.

Never thought I'd be doing any sort of construction art, but I guess that's how it goes!

I've never met her and probably never will, but damn.



I know I've already posted that painting, but it's the only one to post here.

The Ready Set and The Bigger Lights were amazing at The Beat Kitchen last night! 2 of the best live performances I've seen in awhile, and the sound quality in the Beat Kitchen really amazed me. Props to The Ready Set for transitioning their sound into a great live act as well. Would've loved to see the light show. Check out Ankur Threadz as well, Andy's clothing line, he's a badass!

Let's Get a Bottle and Drink, Alone Tonight.

Haven't been uploading brand new drawings as much as I'd like.
Most of these are from older sketchbooks, all my time spent at school has been clothing line work, haven't got the scanner out in awhile.

1960's New York was the epitome of everything in my world.
I would have loved to experienced moments like these.


Lots of work on Noise Apparel tshirts tonight, we will be going through our ideas and getting some solid ideas for our 2nd set of shirts to release already!

Landscaping...

with sharpies?
sure why not. :)





Went to see Owl City and Lights in Indianapolis last night, we parked right as the Colts AFC championship win was getting out, the streets were nuts, it was really cool to be there. Lights and Owl City were both amazing as well. Time for another week of school.

Noise Apparel Upcoming Events.

I don't want to plug it all over my blog, but a lot of my art has been focused on getting the imagery and production done for my clothing line, regardless of how much I hate computer art.

Here are our first batch of finalized fliers.












love! <3

ps. presales for valentines day are available through all bands performing and noise apparel. give me a shout at benjy@noiseapparel.com!

Line Drawing??

been doing contour drawings in class, figured I'd load this one up. An early Noise Apparel image and a drawing that I just like the use of shapes as shadows. Thoughts?




love! <3

London's Show January 28th!

quick flyer template I whipped up for my friend London's show. May be making some changes to it yet, so if you see it out and about looking differently, don't be surprised.



Everyone should come out and check her out, she has a full length release and is really awesome!

love! <3

Burger and Coke, Thanks!

someone said i wouldn't draw a burger, so i did haha.

More Colour!

I'm a huge fan of the imagery and color used in this image.
It's a couple months old, but very interesting.

City and Colour at the Metro on Friday was really good, Dallas Green is a funny man.
I have a new found appreciation for his work.

Heading back downtown in a few hours for @REHABMONDAYS and then school for the week.



love! <3

Lone Gunman.

I'm sure you recognize the image, I decided to do a rendition in hopes of possibly using a portion of the imagery for a shirt design.




love! <3

Train Car Confessions.

on the train home to take care of some clothing line work, i got bored and decided to draw what i saw. what resulted was a pretty cool pen/sharpie drawing.

Edie Sedgwick.

no, its not new.

but i am in the process of adding a 2nd 30x40 canvas to the piece to enter into the Utrecht student art show (deadline january 30th).
