The Henry Art Gallery, a contemporary art museum in Seattle, will host Morning Serial: Webcomics Come to the Table from March-June 2012. This pocket-sized exhibition will look at the art and culture of online comics, and what makes them unique to comics-making. The show will include both physical and digital experiences, each with a different artist line-up.

BAMN! The Nawlz ipad comic has hit itunes… http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/nawlz-interactive-comic/id435444723?mt=8 The first episode is FREE!! Waste no time, GO GET NAWLZY, get touchy, and feely, and swipey, tilt it, pinch it, pan it, shake shake shake it, the Nawlzy world will react in new ways that make perfect sense.
After one year of custom developing our own special tech for porting flash to iPad, we’ve discovered that the ipad was indeed designed for Nawlz. And so many people were asking, why didn’t you use the flash ipad packager? Well, the reason is, the packager kinda sucks and I got a grant from Film Victoria that allowed me to do things my way, how I like to do it. We have created the ultimate Nawlz to iPad engine! Tell your friends, share the video, pump that shit out there for me, so I can start porting season 2 asap!

I was fortunate to attend a special corroboree for Ned Cheedy last night. The man is 105, possibly the oldest indigenous man in Australia and recent recipient of the Deadly lifetime achievement award. Ned is also Alum Cheedy’s father, whom I’ve been collaborating with on the Jack and the Swordfish story.
I also attended the rehearsal for the corroboree where I was invited to learn traditional dance. I think I gotta work on my moves, everybody was laughing. Lots of fun!
Here’s my sketch of Ned as he listened to the women’s choir singing ‘Down to the river’ in language.

You might’ve noticed Nawlz has been seriously neglected the last few months. The reason is… I’ve been out bush.
Yijala means ‘now’ in Ngarluma; Yala means ‘now’ in Yindjibarndi.
For the last few months I’ve been working with the indigenous community of Roebourne on the Yijala/Yala project in Northern WA. We made this Love Punks versus Zombies film… I designed the costumes and did the makeup, shot the opening sequences including Troyden dancing and EJ falling off the pipe – freakin classic!
Here’s a couple extra shots from the shoot… Check out Ashton as Birdman…
And now, based on the incredible cast of the film, I’ve got permission to create an epic 18 character sci-fi adventure series, tentatively titled NEOMADS. I will even be working with the kids on the series as they act out the scenes of the story for reference material, from there I’ll be taking a photshop class once a week where their job will be to colour in their own characters. I wrote Wacom a sponsorship letter last week and they’ve agreed to give us 5 Wacom tablets to get the program started. So exciting! Look forward to more updates soon!
There’s a big quad bike scene up here, so I’m trying to come up with some kind of quad inspired hover bike… Here’s some concepts…
Also one of my favourite elders from the community Tootsie Daniels has agreed to make a cameo in the comic. Here’s a Tootsie sketch…
I also collaborated on a childrens book with writer, Alum Cheedy. The book is called Jack and the Swordfish and is inspired by his son Jack and their spear fishing trips along the coast. Here’s a preview of the book (That’s Jack reading it)…
I’ve just started working on part 02 of Jack and the Swordfish and will post some sketches soon.
