These workshops are unique experiences and make a great gift to the hard-to-buy-for artist in your life. Visit here for more info on what my workshops are all about! READ MORE
What? Another Monday?!? As if the end of the weekend was not bad enough, here comes another step on the rapidly dwindling road that was my work for MAD Magazine! This week was look back as what for a number of years seemed like it would be the final full movie parody to appear in MAD. I’m talking about MAD’s spoof of “Aquaman” from MAD #7 (June 2019) written by my CLAPTRAP cohort Desmond Devlin. The reason this seemed this one might be the curtain call for MAD movie parodies is that it was at this point in the MAD timeline, February of 2019, that… READ MORE

Her role in John Carpenter‘s 1978 “Halloween” began a whole new genre of scream queens/slasher films, but it was already “in her blood” you could say… and not the blood she left in the hallway in the movie! Her mother was Janet Leigh, one of the stars of Alfred Hitchcock‘s horror classic “Psycho”, and one of the original scream queens. READ MORE
