Poutine For Adirondack Life



Recent one for an article about Poutine in the "North Country" region for Adirondack Life magazine. Being close to Canada they have some legit stuff up there ranging from traditional (real cheese curds and hand cut fries) to gourmet versions cheffed up with chunks of brisket, porcini gravy, or octopus. Thanks to Kelly Hofschneider and Niki Kourofsky for another cool job.

Philadelphia Newsstand Drawings


Recently scanned these from last month's show at B2. They are also all for sale on my website. Enjoy! This one's on Oregon Avenue in South Philly.


On the east side of City Hall, on Market St. Stocked to the gills.


Sort of made up from photos of a few different lunch carts. I'm semi obsessed with the new crop of "halal nyc gyro heathy rice combo" carts popping up here.


Broad & Oregon. Not actually called "Mike's" and maybe not really 24 hours but I've never seen it closed.


Graffiti'ed stand on 16th near JFK or Market. This was the one that made me want to draw a bunch of newsstands. 


Across from Reading Terminal, sells mostly old X-men comics. "No Tobacco Products".


East side of Broad & Tasker. The guy wears the same Pink Floyd shirt every day. Also lots of lotto "dream books".


Next to Oregon Diner and the Asian Market. (best asian market in South Philly by the way. Also has a pho place and banh mi.)

Here's a bunch or reference photos, including some I never got around to drawing….

Off Campus Guide for Willamette Week


Recently Willamette Week in Portland asked me to do a whole mess of illustrations for their Off Campus student guide. Best thrift stores, hookah bars, coffee shops, cheap eats, basement shows. 

Also how to throw a keg party and not end up living in a van & working at a donut store after you graduate. Fun stuff. Huge thanks to the art department at Wweek for always giving me awesome things to draw.

Hot Diggity Baja Jake Dog


Quick wood painting for a Hot Diggity Kickstarter supporter. 


Also was their "dog of the month" a while back and has been featured on the HD2 cart. Nice one with jicama, salsa verde, tortilla strips and queso fresco.

1732 Meats Smoked Paprika Bacon


Latest label for 1732 Meats complete with a crazy paprika smoking diagram. Pimenton De La Vera is actually a DOP protected product - grown, dried, smoked and ground in the mountains of Spain's LA Vera region.  Check out this video below (that I used for reference) for an in depth-look into the process.

Along with Green Aisle, 1732 Meats Bacon is also now available at the Fair Foods Farmstand in the Reading Terminal Market. Next up? Pancetta. 



Elixr Coffee / Little Baby's Ice Cream Affogato Day


Recently finished this poster for Little Baby's Ice Cream "Affogato Day" at Elixr Coffee in center city. What is Affogato? Delicious ice cream topped with delicious espresso and sometimes other stuff.

Thanks a bunch to Ryan Greenberg of Elixr for the gig! They have awesome murals by Jim Houser and Courtney Brown on display right now too.
