Whenever a bunch of cartoonists get together, they are going to make a bunch of jam comics. This weekend’s SF Zinefest was no exception. Kraig Rasmussen, movie buff and fellow Cartoonist Conspirator, just sent me a scan of a “poo” themed jam comic he started. See if you can guess which artist did what:
I was [...]
So the SF Zinefest was announced a couple months ago, but it wasn’t until a few minutes ago that I actually got excited about it. What happened in that time? I dug up my old comics and found a bunch of copies of my first zine, Moebius Strip Tease, and now I’m feeling all nostalgic. [...]
Introducing the LOL-let! The worlds first wallet featuring my patented “laugh out loud” technology.
You see the secret to the LOL-let is the appliqued (and embroidered) two “L”s and one “O” which are guaranteed to generate generous gobs of giggles and guffaws. [guarantee only valid in some scandinavian countries].
LOL-lets are available through my Etsy site or [...]
Saturday night I attended (and performed) at Scott Beale’s Laughing Squid Lucky 13 Party. I got there early with my friends Irina and Mike to do the soundcheck and get ready for the show. During the down time, Mike and I decided to print some inserts for my mini-comics and hand them out during the [...]
I bought a Gocco at a yard sale last year and never got a chance to use it, but since I ran out of the last of my silkscreened shipping supplies, I decided to dust it off and put it to use for the very first time. All the directions were in Japanese, but the [...]
Scott Beale recently handed me a sticker that his friend from StickerGiant.com made. The sticker is an embroidered version of the Laughing Squid logo, and it looks great. Since there are only a few of these (10?), I was a little hesitant to just put it anywhere. Finally decided to just go ahead and sew [...]
When you think about it, beads are the “sprites” of the craft world, so it’s really no surprise that the two should come together. Dr. Octoroc uses Perler plastic beads to breathe new life into classic video game sprites. His newest piece, Gutsdozer, was made using 16,000 beads. By layering the beads, Dr. Octoroc was [...]
Tonight I gave a yo-yo presentation at Quickies, a fundraiser for 826 put on by Ideo. It was a blast to see Ideo’s killer office space in Pier 28, and to perform a twist on my normal act (tweaking it slightly to fit a tech-ier crowd). My presentation was around 9pm, and I went on [...]
This week has been a week of snowballing failures, but at least I’ve finally posted some of my newest batches of wallets and designs onto DocPopCrafts.com.

I haven’t been outside all day today. In fact, the last several days have all been spent indoors trying to build [...]
Last year was a great year for me, I learned a lot of new things and got a lot done, but 2008 has been real sluggish so far. All the parties and traveling at the end of 2007 pulled me away from my daily creating routines and I got so sick from in January that [...]
