PangeaSeed 2010

I was pleased to be invited back to participate in PangeaSeed's benefit artshow this year. The event was held in Tokyo, Japan and was appropriately titled Shark Love. I did a special piece for this years event, you can see the results below. It is titled O Toshiyori O Sonchoo Suru or in other words, Respect Your Elders. PangeaSeed is an organization dedicated to protecting sharks and other seaworthy creatures from being eradicated by us greedy humans. They also strive to educate and create awareness about these important issues. You can see pictures from all this years Pangeaseed events here. It looks like they wrangled in a lot of great artists again this year. You can find out more about Pangeaseed over at their website www.pangeaseed.com. Oh, and remember... No Fin, No Future.

Pacific Nomadic

A band of young chaps out of Seattle called Pacific Nomadic chose my Squids v.s Whales image for the cover of their debut Mutual EP. It sounds like they will have stickers and t-shirts featuring these creatures of the deep in the near future as well. I believe you can download the EP in it's entirety for free over at their website. It is always an honor to have musicians connect with my work because music is probably the biggest influence and source of inspiration for my work. If you dig acts like The Appleseed Cast, Sunny Day Real Estate, or Jimmy Eat World, then I think you'll enjoy Pacific Nomadic. Check them out at www.pacificnomadic.com
