Since I have been busy developing a new website and finishing a load of projects I didn’t have time to post good stuff. So please pardon me and accept this selection of vintage chicks that were chilling in my archives.

Yesterday was an emotional day for my family. Our friend Akiko left for a 5 weeks mission in Haiti for the UN. Akiko is a United Nations cartographer specialized in conflict and disaster maps. Her department works all around the globe. She has done maps for the Tsunami recovering operation, the earthquake in Pakistan, the war in Sudan and on and on. Her maps help the emergency groups on the ground to visualize which road are still intact, which way trucks can pass with supplies, where the refugees camps are, what tribal or local conflicts might cause problems ,etc…
Akiko is a Geneva University geologist, a map guru, speak 4-5 languages, is a computer wizzard but first and foremost a close and super generous friend. Good luck girl! Thanks for what you are doing. You are a true inspiration.
Please do your part and donate some money to support the relief operation here:
Red Cross
Doctors Without Borders
Unicef

Few years ago I really got into classic american mascots. I started to draw a whole bunch of them. To this day I believe Mr. Marker is my all time favorite. Last week I got a nice email from MR. SKIP who followed the punch line “your permanent friend” by inking Mr Marker to his forearm. Weird feeling…

My obsession of collecting 12” vinyls and digital images of Wilfred Limonious artworks became some kind of obsession. I found about 60 covers he did last month. Here is round 2.
POW POW POW!
