Delayed. Sleep. Phaze. Number 3.

The time has come. Delayed. Sleep. Phaze. Number 3 is officially here! It's been a long time since DSP2, roughly three years, but things come as they are intended and when. The extreme gap of time in between the two pushed me to create something bigger and better than before. I shed the smaller 20-page format in favor of over 50. I let go of black and white and embraced full-color. I shed light on two different artists versus the usual one, including a rare interview with APHRO ONER. I decided drawings weren't enough and included design, digital illustrations, and photography--essentially encapsulating most of my visual disciplines into one book. I then created the video below to further push my envelope and showcase what DSP is to me. The book is ready for purchase and I look forward to hearing your feedback and seeing your faces light up when you look through it.

PURCHASE BOOK HERE.

Delayed. Sleep. Phaze. Number 3.

The wait is officially over. The pre-order for my latest book Delayed. Sleep. Phaze. 3 is now available in the online shop. They have been sent to the printer as of yesterday and are on their way. Pre-orders will begin to ship to you starting July 13th with an official release date soon after. This is your opportunity to get the book before anyone else as well as receive two stickers which will not be available elsewhere for quite some time and were created just for this book.

DSP3 is looong overdue and after so many life changes and book corrections and reprints, it has finally seen completion. To make up for the ridiculous delay, I upped the ante all together and doubled the size from the previous books from 20 to 52 pages, and decided to jump into full-color printing as well. It looks glorious! This book is my finest creation and includes pieces of all my favorite media from drawing to photography to design.

If you are a fan of my work, you will likely be surprised at the growth. I've been sitting on a lot of images for a while that you haven't seen yet that I am exceptionally proud of. If you are new to what I do, I invite you to pick one and see the grand scope of the creations that come through me. You will definitely enjoy these pages, people. I am excited to see and hear the reactions and feedback to this one. My previous two did really well and are long out of print. These will be limited as well, only not in such small numbers or hand-numbered as before; I want as many people as possible to own this.

This book was entirely financed by myself and created solely by my own hands, with two exceptions. I normally save the special guests for you to find on your own when you buy the books blindly, but I have decided to change it up again. Within these pages are images and interviews with two of my favorite artists in San Antonio, Cris Licea (ArtSlam!, Death From A Brush) and Aphro Oner (The Lust Project). I have always wanted to include these two in my books and now I got 'em! (S/O to Alonzo, hahaha.) It was only fitting to have them both rather than only one. So BIG shoutouts to them two.

I could talk all day about this book but I would rather stop here and let the pages speak for themselves. Head on over to my online shop and pick up a copy as well as the new DOOM print and some old art prints too (photography prints in LIMITED numbers coming soon). I cannot say this enough, but thank you for all of your continued support. The dream is very much alive and a big reason is because people like you reading this and copping my creations help keep this ship afloat and travelling waters the world over.

THANK YOU.

DSP 3 Update.

I know it's been far too long since my last book. Literally about three or four years. Over the recent months I have been letting out little nuggets and snippets of the next one through my SnapChat (BLUE731) and I know the mystery is coming to a bubble. Well, the wait is almost over. I get my artist proof this weekend or at least by early next week. I am excited to see it and hoping that I got it all square on the first shot so that I can get it out to you sooner. I will be hosting a pre-order in the online shop once I approve the final proof. Then, I will look to host a release party in town where people can pick up their copies in person and have some extras to sell that night. Pre-order will likely have some cool free stuff you can't get after because I love hooking my supporters up with extras, especially when they support me sight unseen. It has taken a long time to build that kind of trust with you but I am ever thankful for all of it and for all of you. You help keep this thing running and even though I would continue if you were to leave, know that it is much more enjoyable with you all around.

Much love.

New Products In The Works.

It's been a long minute since I posted, but it's been busy and productive in a very good way! There are some new things in the works including DSP#3 as well as a brand new sticker. I have been shooting a lot more photos the passed few months as I prep the new book, so hence the lack of updates and new pieces here. I have also been working on some hand-drawn slappies though, so I will have some new stuff on me soon for those I run into whilst skating about the cities I live and travel and paint in. For freesies. Lastly, Rabbit and I have started our piece at the Once Upon A Story wall here in town. If you know where it's at, we will be getting up this weekend to finish; last weekend's freekish midday weather change prevented us from finishing. Come out and kix it!

Thanks for your continued support, hope you guys are ready for new books, prints, and stickers soon!

Late Night Creations.

Scoop.

So it's been a little while since the last post. Since then though, I been rebuilding the empire brick by brick, hand by hand. This year is gonna be another banger and I'm starting it off by getting #DSP3 in by the Spring. I started a new 95 to fund things my way and I'm working on some other new ventures as well. For DSP3, I've already scanned in some new works as well as some from last year that were being saved just for this book and have yet to be seen. This piece here is an older piece that didn't quite make the cut. So if you dig this, recognize that this technically a reject for DSP3 meaning that this next book is gonna be HOT.

Also, peep the new Contact piece on the right side bar for any questions or custom work you need. Holler.
