L.A., HERE I COME!

For almost a year, I've been scheming and dreaming of moving back to Los Angeles, California. And now my beautiful dream is about to become science-fact. Because in January 2011, I'm packing up my Oakland studio and moving the entire Hiredmeat operation down to The City of Angels!

Even though leases have been signed and notices have been given, there's still tons of logistical hoopla for me to deal with. The upcoming move - combined with Holiday travel - has me pressed like a childhood memory in Jack Donaghy's mind vice (for any 30 Rock fans out there). And with the Herculean tasks at hand, I'm doubly in need of support from my fans, friends and collectors.

There are several ways you (Yes, you!) can help me make all this happen; including: investing in original artwork from my "Pick Up The Pieces" online art sale, pre-ordering my new sketchbook LIONSEATYOU, and/or purchasing various items from my online store.

- View and purchase original works from the "PICK UP THE PIECES" Online Art Sale!

- Pre-order your copy of LIONSEATYOU, complete with free rubber block print!

- Purchase "Booty & The Beast" art print and/or graphic novels in The Meatshop!

I've had a fine time providing you folks with all sorts of weird eye candy, during my years in The Bay Area. And I'm excited to reach whole new levels of visual vibrancy in sunny SoCal.

I do hope you'll stick with me for this next chapter of the grand adventure that has been my career!

With ink stained fingers,
