1 guitar left...

The Coheed & Cambria signed "To the Depths We Sink" guitar was auctioned off today and raised some healthy funds for Music Saves Lives.

The last guitar left is Josh's "Beware of Friends" signed by Bad Religion which should go up real soon to close out an intense year. 

Andy Frasco's Chocolate Milk Bonanza + Pies

We just started working on new album art for Andy Frasco's next full length piano attack. However, Andy is better known for his apple pies and chocolate milk habits. We'll post progress as it happens. Josh has done a lot of awesome work for him in the past including Andy's last EP, "236 Park."

Is it me or is the New Year coming way too fast?

Who else is working on this "fine" Sunday?

Josh and I designed these Music Saves Lives tees a while ago in the middle of ASR madness, however they're up for grabs now! Check them out in different colors here. All proceeds benefit Music Saves Lives, of course. Enjoy the remainder of your weekend...

I WISH I WAS EATING THIS

I have nothing to say but I wish I was eating some pizza.

Sketchle Thursday

A scan from the sketchbook on this gloomy day in San Diego. I think that big guy will grow up to be a painting some day.

Music Saves Lives Gibson Guitar project

Josh and I hand-painted 5 Gibson Les Paul guitars that have been signed by Coheed & Cambria, Bad Religion, Pennywise, and Meg & Diea. 2 of the guitars have sold already with proceeds going to benefit Music Saves Lives and all of the great stuff they do. You can check the guitars below and the full project at the Music Saves Lives Gibson Guitar Project site.

This last guitar, the guitar Coheed signed is up here for bid! It's called "To the Depths We Sink" and its based on the concept of Josh's face being too big for his body (kidding but not kidding). 

Skyn Deep art show

Hello All,

This is the first post for Jolby's new blog. Colby and I are super excited to get Jolby up and running and we hope you come back to visit and see our work, favorite sites and wacky drawing. Recently I finished a piece for a show/contest for Equilibrium bags. They asked 13 artist to hand-paint a flap for their bags and the winner will have their artwork mass produced. You can go to SkynDeep to vote for your favorite one. The pics below are mine.
