Clorox has recently posted more of my original illustrations in their Ick-tionary campaign. Below are three more: Lick Service, Txture, and Hover Crap. I know there are a couple more I did for them that they have yet to publish and hope there will be more to come as their vocabulary grows.

This is a fun campaign, especially when dealing with some disgusting material. I love to inject humor and illustrations whenever possible.

D.C. Conspiracy members will be showcasing original Magic Bullet art at Artisphere in Arlington, VA from August 21 thru November 3 in the Works in Progress Gallery. There will be a meet and greet on September 21 from 6 PM to 8 PM where you will be able to connect with many of us in-person. Major props to Matt Dembicki and Evan Keeling for being instrumental in organizing the exhibit. 

For more information, visit: http://artisphere.com/calendar/event-details/Visual-Arts/COMICS-MAKING-STUDIO-WITH-MEMBERS-OF-THE-D-C-CONSPIRACY.aspx

Also worth mentioning since today is Andy Warhol‘s birthday, Artisphere will also be showcasing a Warhol exhibit during some of the same timeframe as the Magic Bullet exhibit and comics making studio. So that means our work will be alongside Warhol!

In additional Magic Bullet news, I’m currently editing the next issue, Magic Bullet #7, which will be Halloween themed. We hope to go to print soon and have the issue out later this month. Be on the lookout, Spooks.

Last Saturday, July 20, 2013 was the opening reception of the cARToons exhibit at Modern Times Coffeehouse (inside Politics & Prose bookstore).

There was a great turnout and it was a lovely evening to enjoy the work of DC area comic creators. The staff at Modern Times said it was their biggest art opening ever! Big thanks to Teresa Roberts Logan for organizing the show. Check out her comic Fog of Worry. Also thank you to Joe Carabeo of Astray Productions for taking the event photos.

 

Here are my pieces in the show. Original ink of Curls riding a mule, the color print, and the print of the Curls comic strip, “Chirp.”

Above is a photo of me with Bud Grace and Lorraine. I’m so glad to be a cartoonist and be able to meet other talented and funny people.

You can see all the photos on the Curls Studio Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151714668472381.1073741834.50763422380&type=3

If you missed the opening reception, you can still visit the show at 5015 Connecticut Avenue, NW, Washington, DC until September 1, 2013.
