My audio archive!

My audio archive is now up and running. Download tracks from my CDs (including a couple of yet-unreleased projects) and mp3s of my performances. Enjoy!

Oh, and be sure to visit Origin Records online for more great jazz.

Lucky Tigers at the Kenton Club!

Casey and I went to see her brother play with his band Lucky Tigers, at the nearby World Famous Kenton Club. "World famous", the clubowners tell us, because it was featured in a little-known Raquel Welch roller-derby movie. The Lucky Tigers rule absolutely, and if you live in Portland you should find a way to see them. Go visit them on myspace.

Here I'm fooling around with racking the zoom lens during a long exposure.

Epic shoot with Fist Of Dishonor!

I finally got to put my new Alien Bees rig (including ringflash!) and Nikon D-40 through the paces last night with this epic shoot of ninja band Fist Of Dishonor. These pictures are straight out of the camera with no tweaking whatever. This is Robo D, an evil berzerker. More coming soon!

Like an idiot, I forgot this character's name. I need an intern to write these things down for me. Apparently he is a blood nemesis of the other musicians, yet a force of good.

Shige Maru! The guitarist.

Another of the nemesis character who's name I forgot.

Blogging is hawrd!

My apologies for the lack of posts. It's been all about the music lately as I fight like a wild animal to put together an income not on a boat. I'm doing another shoot with Tera on Wednesday, so there should be some more cool stuff by the end of the week. In the meantime I'll put up some of the trifling things I've been doing recently... soon...

New shoot: Tera Zarra of Fist Of Dishonor!

AKA Missy Jitsu of Ninja band Fist Of Dishonor. We'd been meaning to do a shoot for weeks, finally got around to it, and a bunch of great stuff happened. Wow. Next time we add a bad guy for simulated combat!

Preparing to gut a screaming opponent, evidently.

Here's one with that cool Photoshop shadow/highlight adjustment, which gives it a kind of vintage poster look.

Sweet Reaper to be sold at Hot Topic!

Apparently Hot Topic has ordered some buttons with this design of mine. I'm currently developing a whole line of these featuring adorable monsters, Japanese warriors, and a variety of deadly creatures.

More Holocene!

One of the Blue Cranes opening bands, who I also can't remember the name of. Anyone?

Update: Bright Red Paper!

Another example of blowing a potentially cool shot by not moving a couple of inches to the left to get the drummer's face in the shot. It's cool anyway, but it bugs me that I can't see the drummer's face.

A rather cool painterly version of the same shot. This is all done in-camera- it's just a slow shutter speed combined with cross-processing.

The bass player. I need to start writing down people's names.
