DJANGO REINHARDT MURAL
I was contacted by the nice folks over at Haute Cuisine to make a mural. Benny and Bernd are designers with a mission. They hold exhibitions in their gallery, sell homemade prints and t-shirts, designer furniture, cool books about coffee or photography, local beer,... Above all they have great opening parties too. They are located in Leuven in a cool old factory building in the docklands. Check for opening hours on their website, but it's usually every weekend.
For the first time I painted my musical hero Django Reinhardt in their gallery shop. Fun times ! This mural has a soundtrack: Minor Swing.

CONVERSE TRIX MURAL
I was contacted again by the wonderful people of CONVERSE to do another mural for them (the fifth already). This time in the backstage of Antwerp concert hall Trix, as they're pimping all the ugly backstages of concert halls. I loved the idea and put my Zombie Cash character on a wall with a subtle Converse-reference. Fun times !
Xtra picture of me and the mural by talented photographer Frederik Buyckx on Converse's flickr page here.

great fun !

Awesome and inventive Antwerp rock band CODASYNC has a new album called AKRONIZE ( free to download on their website ! ). For the 4th time already I did the artwork. Again very different from the previous ones, I made a remix of one of my own pieces this year.
2 December 2011 is the release show at Scheld'apen, Antwerp (Belgium). It's bound to be explosive again !

CONVERSE WALL TO WALL PROJECT
* picture by Laurie Mottie
I was privileged to do the first mural for Converse's Wall to Wall project. Around the globe they have local artists do murals around the new star chevron logo. It was an adventurous task to paint the whole thing ( 20m wide at 7m height ) in 2 days on a shaky scaffolding while a storm was going on. But thanks to the awesome people of Converse, Street Art Belgium and assistants El Topo and Laurie Mottie I succeeded. check out the vid above and interview + pictures.

THE LIBRARY PROJECT - POSTCARDS
Earlier this year I made 9 illustrations for The Library Project. I interviewed 9 young people and visualized what their ideal library would look like. Now Ladda VZW and the Waasland Libraries made these into a sweet postcard series ! e-mail me if you'd like a stack.
JANGOJIM - A DOCUMENTARY
Film school student, Kris Van den Bulck, asked me a few months ago to do his final school project about me and my passion for drawing. At first I was a bit hesitant. Aren't you supposed to be dead or very famous, crazy, very experienced,...before someone makes a documentary about you ? The idea felt weird, but I decided to help him create his final project as I thought it could be fun too. And I was happily surprised by the result. Thanks, Kris !

HOTEL JARRETELLE SKETCH
I was part of the live sketching crew at Hotel Jarretelle, Ghent's Burlesque festival.
It was awesome ! 1930's style, sexy pin-ups, feathers, exotica, fire & striptease. Difficult drawing when you can barely see anything & when the stuff happening on stage is more interesting than what's on your paper :).

WOODPEOPLE - HOT DOG POM POM
This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show.
Little ode to the acrobatic and entertaining basketball Harlem Globetrotters team ( I think their theme song fits best here) and the cheerleader scene in American Beauty. Great film.

WOODPEOPLE - HOLEYWOOD DIRECTOR
This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show.
Little ode to the great Spielberg, the obvious emptiness of Hollywood and still awesome Jurassic Park. I bet Steven only drinks lemonade while playing with action figures in his office.
