Strange Days
New Works by Ken Garduno, Eric Davison, & Tom Haubrick
January 15th – February 21st, 2010
Opening Reception with the Artists: Friday, January 15th, 6-10pm

Subtext is very happy to announce that we will kick off our 2010 season with a triple-threat showing of Ken Garduno, Eric Davison, and Tom Haubrick. We’ve had the pleasure of showing their work a few times over the years, but have always wanted to do something on a larger scale. Although their styles vary, their concepts and narrative work share a common quirkiness. Stay tuned for more details.

Look Out!

Hey everyone! October sure has been one crazy month... lets see... i did two conventions back to back weekends in l.a. and then up in san francisco, i ate the most amazing doughnut in my life up in s.f., movie hopped 4 movies in one day, celebrated my tattoo shop's 5 year anniversary, made and sold out of my first handmade zine, started my etsy store, and i finally went skydiving. in between i have been slaving away with projects and tattoos on the side. going to be putting up some new tattoo work and illustrations just need to sit down and resize all the pictures.

i've got a few great shows coming up also. this month i have one at the crewest gallery in l.a. going to be doing my first screen prints for this show. excited about this one. and im proud to announce that i will be having a group show in january with my two good friends ken garduno and eric davison, more info to follow soon.


did this one for a flyer of the 5 years anniversary halloween party for nice guy tattoos! you can purchase it on my etsy store which i just posted a bunch of small drawings for you all. www.etsy.com/shop/haubscomix

New Zines!!

La Dubla strikes again! last comic con we put together another zine for the world to gaze their eyes upon. this time we asked a few more of our friends to join in and make this zine one of the best ones we've put out so far.



we are selling this bad boy for a mere $5.(plus shipping) help us out so we can fund our next zine... hopefully in time for A.P.E.
the easiest way to get it is to email me here at haubscomix@gmail.com






the new line up is ...
matt espatman, karen davison, eric davison, lacy mccune, ken garduno, emilio santoyo, travis jackson, and tom haubrick.
check it out, here are a few pages from the zine.


Also for comic con i did a little sketchbook. its 30 pages of doodles and ideas that come to fruition and some that did not.





I've been giving these away with recent purchases of my paintings or prints. if you want one by itself i am selling them for 3dollars (plus shipping).
thanks!!

The Icarus Line

Back To Work

After pretty much a month vacation i am back to work full time with my hands full of catching up to do. comic con was amazing as always. saw celebrities, sold some artwork and prints, went to some tron arcade thing, and even saw wolverine talking on a cell phone.




i can't wait until next year. but at least until then there is A.P.E in october...

Last week i just returned from a week long vacation to Portland to visit my good friend Matt. my second time there but definitely not the last. Met some great people, had some great times. After i arrived we visited my friend angela in a little town called astoria on the coast of portland. i thought it sounded familiar and low and behold i find out thats were most of the goonies movie was filmed! one of my all time favorite movies as a kid.

here's the goonie house from afar.



and here are the rocks also seen in goonies. these were a bit south of astoria.



here's a couple pictures from the hiking trip we took to a place called indian heaven. beautiful but after the trip i was covered from head to toe with mosquito bites. well worth it.



i miss it already.

Word on the Street

so its been a busy few months at the tattoo shop, and I've been getting some larger more interesting pieces for my portfolio. I've got a couple shows coming up and have been getting ready for comic con in July. basically I've had my hands full for a while but this summer you will be seeing all the fruits of my labor.

Yes! i will finally be making prints this summer A couple small ones and a few larger ones. I'm still in the middle of deciding which pieces im going to go with. ( if you have any requests let me know. )

Below is a tattoo i did last year but somehow i kept neglecting to put it up. the image was drawn out specifically for Greg's arm. the darker image is one that i took at the shop and the lighter one is a photo of the healed tattoo he took. i definitly need to take more photography lessons. anyone got any tips?





i gotta say thanks again Greg! sorry it took so long to get this baby on here.

Heaven

a bit of a different style for today. i painted a fun design for the tattoo shop to be used for our banner at conventions. i also drew up another version for t shirts we are selling. i haven't worked in color for a while so it was a great change of pace. i will be doing more of these illustrations in the weeks to come because im putting together a set of tattoo flash. once i have them ready to sell i will preview them on here as well. i know some say i should stick to one style but i just cant seem to do that. i have too much fun and like to keep my self challenged in doing so. maybe coming up with a pseudo name is the best route. until then i will keep putting up my tattoo style stuff on here. thanks for looking
tom
