I’m playing a show on December 1^st at The Lost Church with my dear friend Myrrh Larsen, and you all should come.

I imagine this set will be full of things you haven’t heard from me in a long time as well as things you’ve never heard before.

Also this is my favorite venue in SF right now, and it’s only got 50 seats!
They assure me that the link for presale tickets will be up at TheLostChurch.com really soon, so check there to see if you can get tickets ahead of time.

It would really mean a lot to me if you’d come.

This year for halloween, I was feeling the pressure of trying to top the previous year’s costume.

I had no ideas for weeks, but luckily at the last minute– inspiration struck.

A quick trip to the nearest vintage store later, I had everything I needed to be Frida Kahlo.

If you’ve been reading this blog, and you know anything about Frida, then you know that this is probably the most appropriate costume I could put together.

I went out on Friday with Melinda and Marie, and even won the Cat Club halloween contest. 

Can’t wait to do it again next year!

You guys, things have been rough in Starland.

& I suspect they’ll get worse before they get better.

I’m trying though– harder than I think I’ve ever tried at anything.

Here is a cell phone picture of a laptop screen, editing the Show and Tell video.

The raw footage is something I’m really, really excited about.

I’m hoping to screen it at the show we have at The Lost Church on December 1^st, which you should come to.

I could really use the support right now.

Things are going to change soon. I’m not sure how yet, but I know that they will.

Here’s to hoping that it’s for the better.

I have about a million things to post about, but I need to take/edit photos, or do drawings for most of them. Also, my to-do list is terrifying, I’ve been sick for a week (that’s a post in and of itself), and I’m going to New York this weekend.

So to tide you over, I thought I’d show you a couple of new prints that I made and sold at APE.

The first is the finished version of the drawing you saw in this post, which just got a little bit more work on it.

This other print, however, is part of a series that I’m working on, based on scenes from the movie Chungking Express.

This film holds a special place in my heart for a bunch of different reasons. I also really love most of Wong Kar-wai’s other films (In the Mood for Love is fucking epically beautiful), but Chungking is the one that grabs onto my heartstrings and pulls.

I have 2 more images to finish this series, so watch for them.
When I finish I’ll probably make them available to buy online.

I’ll have more for you, internets, when I have some time.

So I recently had the awesome privilege of illustrating/designing a book cover for Laurie Penny!
If you don’t know who she is, you should read the things she’s been writing about the London riots.

I had a lot of fun doing this cover– mostly because it let me do my two favorite things: drawing a pretty girl, and lettering type by hand.

Now I have to run off and do more scrambling to get ready for APE.

You can preorder Laurie’s book right here.
