YOU ARE NOT A SLAVE

Sometimes I write something that makes me look wise or whatever. When I wrote this as a Facebook post this past summer, I was largely encouraging and correcting myself.

Fashion Art Network interviews me (@SamaxAmen)

Here's a promo interview I did with the fine folks at Fashion Art Network to promote their gallery exhibit "No Need to be Heroic" that I had a couple pieces in. A nice chance for the internets to hear my voice, instead of just reading what I have to say.

Wanna see the interiors I did for Sivion's album "Group Therapy"?

So when I did the artwork for Sivion's album Group Therapy, I agreed not to share the interior art on the internet for a while so that people who bought the record would get something exclusive.

Two 11x17 Fan Art prints available this week from @SamaxAmen

Just like that, it's February, and there's a lot going on around here, so I'll get right to what I wanted to talk to you about:
I'm offering two limited 11x17 Fan Art prints this week, and as it turns out they both have a lovey dovey pre-Valentine vibe to them, for those of you who are feeling festive or whatever.
