“Down the Winding Road the Booty Bumps”

The moment I heard the band name I knew I wanted to work with these guys. Coming straight from Asheville, NC, them cats bring the stank funk. Big horns, in the pocket grooves, fur, fuzzy dice and plenty of booty shake – that’s a Booty Band party.

Our paths first crossed at Camp Barefoot 2, in Gore VA back in 2007. I bum rushed the green room next to the main stage during their performance. I was carrying a stack of prints in a tube on my back donning a furry leopard beret Zicka-Funk style. After a brief conversation over some incense, J.P. Miller bought a print and commissioned me to create the show poster you see here.

This was created at size, 12×18, on heavy weight stock with acrylic and pen and ink. The inspiration came via the band’s mascot, a faceless afro-haired femme, well endowed with serious hiney. I coined the phrase, “Down the winding road the booty bumps” with the band in mind riding down the road in their tour van and then applied it to Yo Mama, changed the street into a golden brick road and called in a funky caterpillar to the foreground.

The painting debuted to the public at the farewell Thanksgathering held at the legendary Ziggy’s in Winston-Salem, NC in 2007. I had framed up the original painting and placed it on display behind the band’s merch booth where it caught the attention of Ziggy’s co-owner Bernard. He offered me a handsome ransom for the artwork and I packed it in paper wrap at the end of the night and said good by.


My birth, I am here!

Aaaaaand my site is born. Wow. Welcome. Is it a coincidence that this web site enjoys the same date of birth as its creator? I think not.

After many furious years of struggle, I emerge in 2010 here on the world wide web as my own entity. As an artist. This web site will not only serve as my online archive but as a tool that I’ll use to reach out to my fan base and teach my art, literally giving it back to the people. Through my blog and through intensive case studies of select clients, I’ll bring transparency to the visual magic that I create. If you are interested in hearing from me, be sure to sign up for the email list on the Contact page.

Cheers!
