Hey guys I just found out the
Just Like Being There documentary I was interviewed for is finally on netflix. I haven’t even seen it until today! It’s kinda weird to see myself talking….on netflix! So weird…freaking out. But I’m very proud to see all my friends and colleagues get a chance to be seen and heard. Now we’re all gonna be rich…right?

If you dig rock posters, movie posters and art prints then this flick is for you! It’s a pretty decent and covers what was going on in rock posters over the past few years. The doc centers on three artists Kevin Tong, Jay Ryan and Daniel Danger… all super-rad guys and artists… so I’m happy to have even made it in. I sound all smart and junk. Not an easy feat!

Check it out if you have time. Let Scout know what you think of this film. I for one want to do another gig poster after watching it. What’s it gonna make you want to do? Maybe they’ll do a sequel and call it “Just Like Ewing There”?!?!

-i’m going to have to go home and watch this immediately. i have a mural sketch i need to work on & this will be the best inspiration! (and Brian Ewing is the man.

“Who’s the man, that can INK cleaner than any PROGRAM can? 

Brian Ewing’s and his hand, man!”)

At Gowanus Canal, Turning Toxic Waste Into Art

New York’s Gowanus Canal is notoriously toxic — full of dangerous chemicals, industrial waste, and, yes, poop. It reeks in the summer and lives in the popular imagination as the perfect dumping ground for dead bodies. No plant or animal life can survive in it for long. What that lends itself to, of course, are two kinds of images: gritty photos of the filth and pollution, and scenic landscapes that try not to dwell too long on the former.
