Kilroy & Maw


Not sure how many of you know that I've started a little endeavor with a friend of mine, Sarah Watts. She's an amazing illustrator who shares with me a love of gig poster artwork. So we've started contacting bands and making posters. We collaborate on design, she illustrates, and then I've been screenprinting them. So far we've been doing really well, and I just wanted to share with the fam some of our work. You might not know the bands (mostly indie names), but the artwork is pretty regardless.

The name of our business is Kilroy & Maw. Kilroy is a reference to grandpa. Remember how he used to always leave notes all over that said, "Kilroy was here" ? Granted, it's a saying that has history and pop culture reference (this wiki article about it was interesting to me and added a bit more meaning). Maw is a reference to Sarah's grandma.

We've only done 3 posters so far, but we have more in the works. Pretty soon we will have a website up (thank you Christy!), but in the meantime here is our etsy site:

Thanks for checking us out!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GERRY!

Look at BJ's face!  It makes me laugh!  I went to get the dogs out of the dog pen area, and one of the dogs had dug  hole, rocks and dirt flung everywhere.  I was easy to see which dog it was, look at the dirt on his face!!!

A Movie for the 4th of July Girl

This is Christy posting from my mom's account because I am not a contributor.

This is a short film about a couple returning home from vacation to find some strangers living in their home. When they call the police it seems something even spookier has happened nobody sees or hears the couple.

Background: Dedicated to Brittany our little 4th of July Baby. This piece started as a Twilight Zone scary movie, but quickly turned comical as we attempted to shoot this without editing. Toward the end you will notice some very good "special effects" as we attempt the final scene. Also, note that Neil's girlfriend, Vanessa, was an awesome sport she was in the house for about 5 seconds when she was informed she was in our movie and playing the character of Eddie's Fiance.



Cast in order of appearance:
Husband: Leeman
Wife: Christy
(In the house)
shelley
Carisa
Andrea
Eddie
and Vanessa as Butter Bean
Police Officer 1: Eric
Police Officer 2: Neil


Remember No Editing Here!
