I’m really excited to let everyone know about something that I have been working hard on now for sometime. You’ve seen me talking about my own toy making adventures but there’s more out there, and I’m trying to expand on that now… Introducing the “Noise & Toys Tour”! The niche designer-toy underground is fast-growing into […]
I received some very awesome news just the other day… I have OFFICIALLY been nominated as a finalist in the 2019 Designer Toy Awards under the category of “BEST NON-LICENSED” for my Geoffrey The homeless Giraffe figure entitled “NO TOYS 4 US” released thru DKE Toys at SDCC 2018!! This is freakin’ amazing and so […]
Hello everyone, and Happy New Year! I know that I’m pretty late with this first blog of the year thing, but I’m trying to get everything caught up and updated now… Last couple months since Designer Con have been rough… The cross country trip out to California and back took a lot out of me […]

This Saturday, June 9th, I will be performing a Mr Blank solo theater/noise performance art piece at Flicker Bar 9pm, in support of some AWESOME weirdo friends of mine from New York called “A Place Both Wonderful & Strange“. A Place Both Wonderful and Strange produces art that is endearingly odd, just like a David Lynch film. So it’s […]
While up into the wee hours of the morning doing some research on current digital “distribution channels” for my art and music…. I found a five year old article on Pitchfork (read here) that explains the struggle of a DIY music career, perfectly! And.. This is what keeps me up late at night…. Is it all hopeless? […]
This upcoming weekend is the official unveiling of the “Post Apocalyptic Mystic” collection of unique and intriguing wearable art jewelry. You will find us in the Athfest Artist Market (booth #16) during the three day city-wide Athfest Music & Arts Festival.

The Rat Babies are hitting the road, continuing a non-stop work streak that has kept them very busy over the last few months… Last November they went on a month long tour that took them through the southeast with the Shadow People Sideshow out of Atlanta. Then in January they teamed up with a old […]
