Go where the wind blows...

This weekend, one of my best friends is having his solo show at Jonathan Levine Gallery. Souther's "Last Year's Man" opens on Saturday, May 16th. Please come by and enjoy the balloon rides.

My favorite pieces of what I've seen thus far.

GRRREEEAAATTTTT!!!!

The new Kramers Ergot 7 ("the most ambitious comics anthology of the past decade") is out and they're doing a tour of book signings. Check it out.

My dear friend, Souther, won't be here for the Brooklyn signings but will be joining them up in Providence. This may call for a road trip....

Kramers Ergot at Angouleme 2009

Overseas customers will have a chance to see Kramers Ergot 7 at the Angouleme Comics Festival in France January 29th through Feb 1st. Daniel Clowes, Chris Ware, Souther Salazar, Adrian Tomine, Joe Daly, and Conrad Botes will be on hand to sign copies. As an added treat, you will be able to witness a real-live American hillbilly (me) murder French pronunciation. Fun!

Demons in Spring

Itsah so gloomy outah. I don't know why I'm writing with a so called Italian accent... I'm very tired from trying to finish 2 pieces overnight so I'm a little delirious.

I'm waiting for my copy to arrive, but I found this on a 12ozprophet posted by Cody Hudson, the art director, designer of the book (and artist extraordinaire).

Demons in Spring is a collection of short stories by Joe Meno and some of the proceeds benefit 826CHI. "the book includes art by todd baxter, kelsey brookes, ivan brunetti, charles burns, nick butcher, steph davidson, evan hecox, kim hiorthoy, paul horschemeier, cody hudson, caroline hwang, kozyndan, geoff mcfetridge, anders nilsen, laura owens, archer prewitt, jon resh, jay ryan, souther salazr, rachell sumpter, chris uphues."-from 12ozprophet.



The book looks great and am very humbled to be in the company of such great artists.
my piece-ah!
