Pugilistic Pose

Burke's Books signing announced in the Memphis Commercial AppealThis, hilariously enough, is the image that The Commercial Appeal ("The only honestly named paper in America," says Ralph Nader) pulled off of this very blog to illustrate the announcement of Thursday's book signing.

It is only fair, I suppose, that the public be warned of my pugnacious proclivities. I'll fight alla y'all.

Also, the TV appearance is back on for this Friday. Maybe. We'll see.

New Studio

Joel Priddy has a new studio.I'm writing rent checks again.

Toxic art materials don't mix well with free range toddlers, so I've been limping along without an in-house studio. I tried setting one up at my school office, but an EPA audit nixed that. Now, I've found a perfect little rental exactly halfway between work and home. Can't wait to doll it up and start making art! Or, at least, cartoon pages.

First items moved in: table legs and a framed Will Eisner sketch.

Gift of the Magi Signing

Gift of the Magi, signed and doodled.Wanna buy a copy of Gift of the Magi and then get it scrawled all over by my very hand? I'll be signing and doodling at Burke's Bookstore, Thursday evening, December 3rd, from 7:00 to 9:00. It's part of the Cooper-Young Night Out shindig, so there will be sparkly lights, window display contests, and all kinds of specials at the restaurants and shops. If, you know, me sitting behind a table isn't enough of a draw.

Also, apparently I'm going to be on the television, tomorrow morning. If there's a youtubabale clip, I'll post it here, because you should probably be out Black Fridaying our economy.

edit, 11/27/09: No TV for me. I showed up, but was not on the schedule. Next week, maybe?

Gift of the Magi

Joel Priddy's Gift of the MagiThe MCA faculty show has rolled around again! I have a little bit of an issue with how gallery-centric art schools tend to be, so I amuse myself (and certainly only myself) by sticking mass-market reproductions of my work in these shows.

Also, I'm too cheap to have anything framed.

Had the Queen of Sheba lived in the flat across the airshaft...




Did I mention that The Gift of The Magi is available in all your finest bookstores, November 3rd? Or that it makes the perfect holiday gift in for these troubled times?
