5-15-2008 HELL CITY TATTOO FEST and ART PRINT CRAZINESS
Well, what can we say... Jeral has lost his damn mind just in time for HELL CITY TATTOOFEST in Columbus, OH going on May 16, 17, and 18th. He's going to be there from
open to close each day of the fest. selling his art, books, and probably things we
shouldn't even know about! So if you ever had the desire to poke him with a stick or
kick him in the shin... here's your chance.
He also dropped a few new prints on us before he ran off screaming about how much
stuff he had to pack into his car before heading out... He really is insane sometimes!
So... we have a brand spankin' new CLUTCH poster that we'll have a SUPER limited
amount for sale after the concert, as usual... never before so stop asking! hahaha
He also just wrapped up new versions of some pieces that were pretty sick the first
time around and the new versions are even SICKER! See for you self... Yes, he has gone
a little crazy with the red, white, and silver on black paper... but can you blame him,
that combination kicks so much ass, even his art looks cool! Please don't tell him we
said that... ;-)

CRAZY EYES TOY SCULPT 1.0
1-3-2007Ok kids... you knew it would happen sooner or later... my first toy idea and my first time to use Sculpty... it's pretty fun.
I've wanted to do a toy for a while but just didn't know if I had anything to offer
that world... I think this is fun and simple enough.
The eyeball is about the size of a baseball... the idea is to have a little kit...
one eyeball, 2 hats, one arrow ( maybe ) and a set of wings... and I want to
make a little halo that would be suspended over his head on a little spring or
something.
Anyway... here's my virgin run at it...

the striping / tribal action into the foreground... we'll see.
Here's to 2007 and Great friends... Thanks,
Jeral

ANGRYBLUE VS TIDWELL
12-14-06This is the first in a series of 6 pieces that we are doing together.
We will be doing a VERY small number of hand printed posters ( maybe 50 pieces )
that will be for sale individually or as a set. The single pieces will probably
cost around $50 each or only $200 for the set of 6 if you pre order.
More details on prices and availability coming soon. Some of them may also
become limited edition t-shirts... we'll have to see. Maybe that could come with the
pre order sets... hhhhmmmmmm, we're gonna have to think about that one.
p.s. We have already started on #2...
Enjoy,
