The Opening of LoveSick
A huge thank you to everyone that made it out to the opening! It was more fun that I could have hoped for. Here are a few photos from the night so you can get an idea of what it was like. You can still catch the show in person until March 4th at LIFT.
You can view all the artwork and order any pieces you’d like online as well.
(Oh, there was a nice version of the last photo of Kill Taupe, Jayme, and myself smiling at the camera, but I liked the one of us being assholes more.)
The opening of LOVESICK was bloody fantastic. I’ll have lots of posts of the art and from the opening this week, but now that the show is over I can get to all the things I’ve been putting off while preparing for it.
(Oh, and I got the idea to do a drawn To Do list from the fabulous Kill Taupe. It really helped for me to feel less overwhelmed by doodling it out. Thanks for the inspiration, bro.)
Super Mega Important LOVESICK News!
I am cleaning my apartment.
No, that isn’t the important news. The reason I’m cleaning my apartment is the news.
In a few hours I will be picking up Mr. Cody Schibi at the airport because he pulled some last minute strings to fly up from Austin to be at the opening tonight!
He’ll be crashing at my pad and then flying out tomorrow morning. If you are a fan of his work and live in Metro Detroit then tonight is the night to actually meet him in person. I’m so very excited to actually get to hang with him in person after doing so many different shows together.

LOVESICK ARTIST PROFILE: CODY SCHIBI
Cody Schibi is a freelance illustrator based out of Austin, Texas. His artwork has been deemed “gracefully grotesque” with a mix of precise, fine line detail and dripping watercolors that depict horrifying yet beautiful images. His creations have been inspired by an obsession with horror films (predominately from the 1980s) as well as friends & fellow artists.
