Dig Dug/Warriors Parody


Through Dean Haspiel's facebook, I realized that my favorite video game character is turning 30. I still play Dig Dug on a "plug-n-play" console that connects directly to my teevee. Joannie's kids got it for me for Christmas. I'm not too much into new video games. Too complicated with all the buttons and whatnot. I can't properly zone out. Anyways, after I saw they are celebrating Dig Dug's birthday over at ShiftyLooks in comics form, I decided to finish this old drawing I had of Dig Dug screaming Cyrus' famous line from the Warriors. Initially, it was supposed to be a t-shirt design, but I didn't think it would resonate with the younger audience.

Nonetheless, glad I finished it. It was fun. I love playing Dig Dug. And it has been a while since I did a drawing just to be doing a drawing.

Tonight: FEEL THE POWER!


Over 100 artists, including the Autumn Society's Chogrin, Tom Whalen, Jude Buffum, Danielle Rizzolo, and Dave Perillo. Premieres tonight!

Masters of the Universe



Shown above is my piece for Gallery 1988’s upcoming “Under the Influence: Masters of the Universe” show. Titled “Battle Bones”, it is a giclee print on canvas edition of 20, and 1/20 will come in this green hand-painted frame.
As a product of the eighties, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe was a big part of my childhood, so I was super excited to be a part of this show. One thing I love about the characters is that they are so iconic and colorful that they can be reduced to very few pixels and still read.
