Sorry Mumblers for only blogging when i have something to push, i have a bazillion excuses, but none too good so i’ll just get to pluggin…

I was lucky enough to get to work with shirts and destroy, and i wanted to make a Larry David shirt, but they skew kinda metal, so this is the result..

then i wanted to pay tribute to the G.O.A.T. skate artist, VCJ, as well as my love for the movie Alien…

and if yr already pushin buttons, why not make a black metal version of the “coexist” thing? Take that, tolerance!

they’re only $15 buck a piece, and can be found at www.shirtsanddestroy.com/ayejay

I’ve been invited to the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego next weekend to be a visiting artist and teach an Intro to Animation Workshop for teenagers.  If you know any teenagers in San Diego who are interested in animation or who love to draw, please let them know!  More information is available on the MCASD site.  Space is limited.

It took us a little bit but we finally have all the artwork from our inaugural show at THIS on the website for your viewing and purchasing pleasure. Please visit THISLosAngeles.com and check it out! You can also see photos from the opening, videos of music folk doing some songs in the space, and a bunch of other crap on the site as well. Take your time.

After a long hiatus, Dave Young is finally blowing the doors off the 6th Street Warehouse for another great show this weekend. If you’re in the downtown Los Angeles area, drop by and get weird!
