Gaslamp Renegade


It's been a busy time. I have had to put the ghost art and music to the side while I attend to some pressing matters, both creative and otherwise. Don Belch (of Ninetail and lately also of Stone Breath) and I built a silkscreen press. The first shirt we did was for Ninetail, based on one of their new batch of songs, called "Gaslamp Renegade." I did the illustration (pen & ink on illustration board). If anyone wants one of these shirts, contact me and I can either get you one or put you in touch with Ninetail.

On the musical front, we've been working on Stone Breath - we are finishing up the new album which is to be called "The Night Birds Psalm (and other songs we sung beneath the silver web)." Before "The Night Birds Psalm" arrives though, we will have a split LP ...and we will compile that material with more new songs and that will make another Stone Breath full length. All of this will happen, probably, in 2011. I am hard at work figuring out the artwork for both of these albums now. It will be different from the illuminations I did for "The Shepherdess and the Bone-White Bird."

As soon as possible though, I'll get back to the ghost/spirit art & music and that means, possibly another release in 2011 from me - besides all of the Stone Breath material - my "solo" album (with guests), timeMOTHeye and the Spectral Light.
