LOL SKULL

Dave in Halifax discovered the skull-y nature of a cardboard box while unpacking and with the help of a marker and his cat made our very first lolskull image! (Confused? Visit I Can Has Cheezburger?)

[UPDATE] Skullattle or Seattskull?

I just got back from an awesome SKULLs related visit to Seattle, Washington this past weekend! Thanks to Kristen of Schmancy Toys who invited me to be a guest author at the impressive Urban Craft Uprising. It was great to see so many folks come out to support local/DIY folks with their hard earned dollars, especially during these tough economic times. Not only did I sign a bunch of my books (including one for a fellow Noah [below], who just happened to be a song contest winner from way back when), but I also had the pleasure of spending some quality time with a few of my other internet friends: Rakka from Suspect & Fugitive, Wiseblood & Glob Glob from The Blog Blog, and Ben from I Can Has Cheezburger. I look forward to my next trip out that way...


And hey, I'd love to come to your town as well, so if you've got an event or program or school that has a few bucks to bring down a guest author/lecturer drop me a line.

Seaweed Skull

Mike (who along with his son Hayden was one of the winners of my book SKULLS in the recent papercraft contest) made this lovely skull out of seaweed on the beach the day after he got his copy of the book...




And just before it was washed away...

Skull Broaches

Chris McCray made this awesome Mickey Skull out of brass and acrylic while studying at RISD. He says, "It is a comment on designer labels and consumerism or maybe it is a reference to Southern Death Cult the amazing band that went on to later become the Cult. Could just be a pin."...
