100 Euro Show in Amsterdam

I just sent off these little paintings to be included in the 100 € SHOW (the site currently has the old show info up) at Wieden + Kennedy Amsterdam. 50% of the proceeds will be donated to the Red Cross.
A great space and a great cause, I only wish I could  jump on a plane to go to Amsterdam next month for the opening, but alas, I will eagerly await someone's Flickr set or Facebook set of the show.

These two are titled:

A Textbook case of Gorilla Hand
and
Oh Yeah?! You and what Army?!

These other two are titled:

Puddle Jumpers
and
Wolfie preps for an Apology

All of them are little paint studies on pages ripped from an old medical book. You can follow the developing content for the show here.

BATHROOM NIGHTMARE

I recently illustrated a hilarious story about a DIY bathroom renovation gone horribly wrong. Unfortunately, I have some experience in this area so it was easy to call upon memory to help come up with images. 
First they needed a full page illustration with a disaster feel. The final is above and below are the sketch ideas.
The Psycho, inspired by the film of the same name. Although looking at it now, it reminds me more of the chain saw/bathroom scene in Scarface. A Flood and The Mole
They really liked the Flood and the Mole so I tossed out the ideas I had for the spot and used the Mole as basis for the spot. Here's the Spot final.

If you want to read the whole story, check it out here.

BERNARD HITS THE SHELVES

Almost 3 years + 2 editors + 6 new spreads + 2 kids + 1 new house and - 1 cat = A book I'm pretty proud of.  Here he is nestled on a shelf of that place that recently filed chapter 11. Snore on, Bernard, Snore on.

MOOMAH LOVES BERNARD

Bernard continues to make a splash! I'm thrilled and honored to be loved by the folks at Moomah. An amazing place that is my fantasy hangout with my kids come to life.
Where else can you go where your kids can do art projects, and eat good organic food, all while you sip a carefully selected beer, wine or espresso?
Exactly.
They just launched an online Journal/Magazine and there's a feature on Bernard, check it out here.
Can't wait to visit and hopefully bring Oskar and Teddy too.

Special thanks to owner Tracey Stewart and super talented Lisel Jane for making me a part of the Moomah family. If you are in New York, and with your kids, bring them to Moomah, and tell them Bernard sent you.
