Posted: August 10th, 2010“Toy Design” is a fabulous and comprehensive survey of historical breadth. Published by a notorious architecture publisher from Germany, the book is focused on the wide variety of toy design itself, not just the products. “The Art Army” is honored to be included with a fantastic spread. Edited by Chris van Uffelen, published by Braun Publishing.

Fortunately for my own interests in non-conformity, my first official prints are not your run-of-the-mill art print.
These ‘prints’ are patterns I generated from scratch, from which I’ve build my cardboard Chuck Taylor and Air Jordan IV. This is everything needed to complete these two iconic shoes, available as an actual-size cardboard print. The exact pattern is printed on natural brown cardboard so the print itself can be cut and assembled into an actual shoe. Send purchase inquiries via the message form at the bottom of this page. I’ve only got a few left available to sell! When an online form becomes available to purchase the print directly, a link will be posted here ASAP.


Considering extenuating circumstances, it may also be possible to receive a free full-size download of this template to construct the cardboard shoe for free. Please send special requests with the message form at the bottom of this page.
3 new beautiful hardback books are surveys that include my work…Scott gave our collaboration piece an amazing spread in his brand new and absolutely beautiful book- The Late Fauna of Early North America: The Art of Scott MusgroveTwo books are being published on the wealth of art produced both officially and unofficially for the Obama campaign. Most of mine was of the UNofficial ilk, and I have work published in both of these books.

Laura Cassidy of Seattle Metropolitan Magazine took an interest beyond her field of fashion, and once again the editorial staff of the notoriously cheesy and tourist-oriented local magazines (Seattle Magazine, Seattle Bride and Seattle Metropolitan) have looked beyond their normal subject matter to the obscure eccentricity of my art. Once again I’m genuinely grateful and shocked at the same time. These folks have now published my work much more than any other print or press, even the ones much more directly related to my work.

The folks at ObsessiveSneakerDisorder contacted me just before the cardboard shoe opening in NYC to participate in a live online phone chat full of people obsessed with shoes. I definitely expected a different sort of questioning. I ended up getting some very interesting questions mostly surrounding art, life, and creative motivation. I swear I always get smarter conversations with NON-art people. The podcast is pretty long. I come in about 33 minutes after the start, and am on for about 20 minutes-
