Wasted Dream II

2012-01-14T04:54:00.000-08:00

Mikel is putting on Part II of Wasted Dream this February and this time it's all artworks inspired by all the western classics, spaghetti westerns mostly.

I probably didn't need to draw this but I did. I did this a few months ago when I was trying to ease myself back into drawing.

Cosmic Assimilation

2011-10-30T22:13:00.000-07:00

I drew this shirt up for Total Attack Fest that my friend Jane is putting on. The fest has come together nicely. I hope it becomes a yearly thing and gets bigger and better. Good work Jane.

Leprosy

2011-10-24T13:43:00.000-07:00

I just finished up this LEPROSY cover for their upcoming 7" on Hardcore Victim. Their split tape with The Helpless was really really good. I can't wait to get my hands on this. This is the first big thing I've drawn since my big break. It was a fun one. Thanks Luke and the guys for letting me do it.

I'm Not Dead

2011-10-16T20:11:00.000-07:00

After a huge break from drawing (probably because drawing in a lightless garage is soul destroying) I finally have a new space. I have been back at the desk cooking up some new drawings for some pretty rad projects. I'm pretty excited about some of them. Thanks to everyone and their patience with my overdue works. It has taken me a little while to get back into the swing of things.

The super talented and super awesome Tricia King was at my place the other day and snapped photos of my new area.

New art will be posted when I'm allowed.

Me and my good friend Alex Gillies are having a split art show together in June. I'm extremely excited to be showing with Alex again and letting people see the collaboration we've been working on since 2009. These things are huge and Alex painstakingly carved almost all the detail I put into the original drawings.

RUIDOSA INMUNDICIA

2011-04-20T19:25:00.001-07:00

Saturday, May 14 - 8:00pm - $12

I have my money on this being one of the best shows of the year, if not the best.
RUIDOSA INMUNDICIA are all the way from Austria/Chile. Female fronted, fast as hell thrash with a good dose of Japanese hardcore. Members of Sotatila. Going to be too much fun.

Local losers TEARGAS, PASTEL BLAZE and LAST CHAOS will also bless the stage.
SHORT LIFE are from Byron Bay or somewhere equally irrelevant but from what I have heard play some pretty good PV.

I got these printed up for the final Burst City show.

In other news, Alex has printed the final frame of our collaboration. It looks amazing. Can't believe how good it's turned out. To be unvieled at a show mid-year.

Also working on my first 12" cover!

The Final Bloodbath

2011-01-19T20:29:00.000-08:00

Drawing up the poster for the final Burst City show was a bittersweet experience. It has meant so much to me and to many other people as well. It was casual place to see shows in an enjoyable environment where almost everyone could get along and toss pots were put off by the rad caliber of people attending. Will was kind enough to let me use it as an art studio for several months when I needed it most so I was spending endless days and late nights there. I can't thank him enough for it.

It will be an amazing night but it will be sad to see the place go.

Teargas - Raining Hammers
No Anchor - Feel the noise, drown in drone.
Loose Grip - Shit the bed punk
Thick Skin - Straight Edge HC
Last Chaos - Based on melodies originally whistled by Jakke

Religon

"Don't need no blind belief
Don't need no comic relief
Don't need to see the scars
Don't need Jesus Christ Superstar
Don't need no Sunday Television

Don't need no time for prayer
Don't save no knee-pads for me up there
If your head's alright, ya don't need binoculars to see the light
Ya don't need no miracle vision

I don't need no Santa Claus
Don't believe in fairies no more
Don't need to go to confession
I'm already trying to fight depression
Don't need no exorcism

Bet your life I don't need religon"

Have a rad christmas everyone.
Have fun with family and friends

Death Walks Alone

2010-12-11T17:54:00.000-08:00

Nuclear Death Terror from Denmark are coming to Australia. They are playing Burst City on the 7th of January. Here's the poster I drew up for it.

My new band Last Chaos (dudes from Teargas and Acid Hammer) are playing our first show, which I'm pretty excited about. Between you and me I don't want to be too up myself but I think it's starting to sound quite Ok.

Obsessed With Death are playing their first show too, member of Hagborn. Haven't heard them but expect riffs.

Waste Em All

2010-12-06T22:18:00.000-08:00

Wasted Dream was heaps of fun thanks to everyone that came.
It was a blast to share the walls with such rad, talented people. Cheers Mikel and Will for making it happen. I had a good night.

I am looking forward to future installments of Wasted Dream.

WASTED DREAM

2010-11-22T18:00:00.001-08:00

Combining the talents of seven Brisbane-based underground artists who have played at, attended, supported and gravitated toward Burst City, WASTED DREAM shows that this city’s visual artists are as diverse and vital as its music scene.

In 2009, as Fortitude Valley continued to decay with its soup of mainstream culture and nightlife, the doors were thrown open to a new underground venue called Burst City. Since its inception it has become associated with DIY punk and hardcore gigs for both local, touring and international bands. As the venue grows to bring into its fold independent and underground bands and music of all persuasions, Burst City will open its doors to its first art exhibition on Saturday 4 December.

This one-night exhibition will showcase a plethora of talent, including the latest extreme and macabre illustrations by Murdoch Stafford, fresh off the plane from exhibiting in Los Angeles. A new batch of woodcut prints will hang alongside photographs by No Anchor’s Alex Gillies. Disturbingly beautiful embroidery will come care of Jade Green and Mikel from Australia’s best new hardcore band Teargas will cover the walls with his visuals of a shattered hell!

WASTED DREAM will also feature the diverse talents of artists Michael Fullard, McKenzie Briggs and Damien Noise – again highlighting Burst City’s determination to provide a platform for artists unknown to a wider audience but just as compelling.

WASTED DREAM is on for one night only on Saturday 4 December at Burst City, 69 Grey St, South Brisbane (directly across the road from the Qld Museum of big dead things).

This thing is massive. It's the first of three in a collaborative series with the extremely talented and all round good dude Alex Gillies focusing on samurais and Japanese demonology. I'm drawing up the panels and Alex is spending crazy amounts of time turning them into wood carvings. So excited about this. Alex has been blowing my mind for long enough that I've finally worked out a way to bring him down to my level.

Thanks and apologies to Goseki Kojima, Ogata Gekko and Toriyama Sekien

Dick Nasty had their 10th birthday shows on the weekend. For the shows they had me draw up their first t-shirt. This has been slowly getting worked on since March. Since it has been so long for them without a shirt we didn't want the first one to be a stinker. It was quite a troublesome drawing to get right, a lot went wrong and I had a lot of trouble getting a few elements to work. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Got some boards coming out with Seven Skates at the end of the month. I put a bit of time into them and i think they came out great. Check out the sweet top side, awesome surprise. So keep an eye out for them later this month. Buy all three and make me rad. Get your head in there!!!

Straight Jacket Nation are playing Brisbane this month. They always kill so be there or you'll look like a massive goose. Acid Hammer are playing their first show and are meant to be Sabbath/Angel Witch worship, not sure if that's true but there nice guys. .. . and should be a hoot. Also the return of Teargas. Here's the flyer i did for it.

Hope your doing fine.

Back from Europe.
Hope to do some art for a change.
Interesting idea.

The 3 Seven Skates Decks i drew should be released around April. I reckon they came out alright. So keep an eye out for them.

Stuff in the works.

Just got my copy of I Want Your Skull Six. It rules, no interviews so there's heaps of art.
Highlights,
Me, Marald, Angryblue, David V. D'Andrea, Human Furnace And an awesome centrefold by Mike Sutfin but it's all good.

You can grab one HERE

No longer doing the cover for Mongrel's Cross. We had some differences on how things should work. The demo tracks rule so wait for that. Rad dirty blackened thrash. That description probably way off but they're good.

Got a contract to do 3 skateboards, which is awesome. Anti war theme so its a 'peace' of piss. Worked out getting paid to draw what i want is kinda rad.

My current 'Blue Duck' project. Been working on this slowly for a while now. Hopefully become a print down the line.

Too many updates for people to keep track of i know. I Apologize. I will slow it down a little.
I managed to track down my Kwala design.
Got a tape cover for Mongrel's Cross and a Suffer tour poster coming up.

Sweet
Giles i stole your line for my header, hopefully that's ok.

Would like a website but this is heaps easier and much more likely to be updated, enjoy.

Did this little while ago for a friends birthday. Wasn't done in time for his birthday, I'm a monster.

Flyer for the Sydney My Precious show

7" design for Septic Surge, not sure when this is coming out or what label this is coming out on. There is talk of a split release from Deep Six and 625 or something like that but who knows. Fun band to see live and big Meatlocker Fans... . . . . . . .

Pretty amusing idea, original request was something along the lines of "bongs with evil spirits coming out"
I wasn't totally sold on the idea, knowing that theres no way i could draw spirits without making them look tacky and totally shit. So i went off on my own tangent. Almost nothing like what they wanted but they're pretty happy with it i think.

Sketch for the Teargas Demo

So, Kwala Skateboards have gone bankrupt over the past few weeks. I had 4 skateboards soon to be released by them, which i was really really excited about. I was really happy with what i had drawn and worked my arse off to get it in on time. I've always wanted to design some skateboards so it was a dream come true and now its all gone to shit.

What can you do. Only thing is they have my original. No one told me this was happening so i had no chance to pick it up. So now I'm dealing with the accountant who is liquidating the place to try and get my original back. Shes been great so far so hopefully no one has taken it and i get it back safe and sound. Until then all i have is this tiny tiny photo
