The Totoro Forest Project is a 'A fund raising exhibition/auction to support the national trust Totoro Forest Foundation that Oscar winning film maker Hayao Miyazaki has been helping over the years, featuring original art created by internationally acclaimed artists in the fields of animation, comic books, and illustration.'

I did notice that many of these pieces were created by Pixar illustrators, animators and directors. The work is absolutely stunning and I just love the concept.

A book featuring all of the pieces should be available on September 6th.

After seeing Dave's cool Savignac print contest, I decided to check into the availability of Raymond's work. Lucky enough, I stumbled upon Art.com, where they have a nice chunk of affordable prints.

Oh, check out Dave & Liz's pad. Mid-century greatness.

Here's our poster for the upcoming Brian Posehn and Judah Friedlander comedy show coming to The Moore theatre on Halloween. If you have a television, internet connection or have been to a movie in the last 10 years, you've seen these guys - and have laughed - really loud.

Just finished a poster for the upcoming Kings Of Leon shows in Seattle and Portland. After rocking the tar out of their new single, I got inspired to go all-out and illustrate something with a lot of detail. We may never know what majesty our lonely bum-king has found in that tower, but I imagine it's breath-taking.

Now you too can build Bob Staake's amazing little Cape Cod studio - complete with cupola! 

See the uber-cool real thing here.

Mike Giant teamed up with Sharpie® to create his very own signature model pen. Mike has been using sharpie's to create amazing artwork for years, so it only seems right. Kudos to the folks at Sharpie® for recognizing great talent and not being afraid to endorse a "graffiti artist".

Build has an excellent rant, I mean blog about the current "nostalgic faux-crapsman" town homes popping up everywhere around Seattle. This was just a topic of conversation amongst friends last week, it's good to see we're not alone. 

They also posted a link to a Seattle Times article regarding the same issue.
