Now you can watch Mr. Beardsley in “Conan Plush Rock” on NBC.com!

I decided to start a blog dedicated to my family dog, Toby (I call her Mr. Rumplestiltskin). It also inspired me to work on a new character which I’ve name, “The Woolly Pig” (yet another nickname that I have for her). If you would like to see a daily woolly pig picture you can visit blog here: www.thewoollypig.blogspot.com

This is my Dad’s cartoon that was published today in the Chicago Tribune.   

I’m excited to announce that Intimidnation will be one of the 150 vendors at this year’s Renegade Craft Fair - Holiday Sale. I’ll have lots of new goodies and Mr. Beardsley items that will be great for this upcoming gift-giving season! It will take place in Chicago, IL on December 6th & 7th at Pulaski Park.

In music news, you’ll see my artwork incorporated into the new Ventilator album, “Rock Folk Suicide” - release date is Tuesday, October 21st on Almost There Records. One of the members of Ventilator, Matt Devine, (who also played with Possum Dixon - one of my favorite bands), writes and records one his own music, too - you can check it out here.

There will be a special Intimidnation free plush giveaway coming up soon! I can’t give out any specific details at this time but I will tell you that it’s happening through MF Magazine and the plush just might be music -related. I will release more information as soon as I get the ‘go ahead’ so make sure to check back soon!

Plush from the shows, “Monster Art Rally” and “Plush You!” are now up online and for sale if you’re interested in being the owner of some original, handmade pieces.

That’s all for now - come back soon!
