What has two thumbs, a silly sense of humor and a twisted photo diorama? THIS GUY! Here’s my piece titled “Where Is Thumbkin?” for the EYAO IV: The Dark & Cryptic Origins of Nursery Rhymes group art show which opens tonight at Gallery Meltdown, Los Angeles! Seemingly innocent fairy tales and nursery rhymes were originally [...]

Now that the exhibit is over, here’s my second piece for the These Are Their Stories art show featuring works inspired by episode summaries of LAW & ORDER. This was a really fun (not to mention delicious) piece to work on. The lineup chart is actual size by the way, in case you ever wondered [...]

I love police procedurals like LAW & ORDER: SVU. So when artist Brandon Bird invited me to participate in a LAW & ORDER themed group art show, I said “hellllll YES” faster than Detective Stabler would rescue Detective Benson from the grips of some pasty wild-eyed madman at an abandoned South Street Seaport warehouse! (…Dink [...]

Here’s a preview of my piece for the third annual Eat Your Art Out exhibit to benefit the fierce roller gladiatrixes, the Angel City Derby Girls! These amazing ladies literally KICK ASS. On wheels no less! So I hope you roll, bounce and skate your buns over to Meltdown Comics in Hollywood this Saturday night, [...]

Lately I’ve been hired for a lot of art and gaming event photography. Though I prefer editorial portrait work because it allows me more control over the lighting, the unique challenges of event work help keep me on my toes. You never know what the obstacles are until you get there, and how they’re going [...]

OMG!!! Check out this super awesome TIMELAPSE video that Jude made from our art show in Germany. Totally worth the watch, especially for Andy’s sexy dance moves! Ich Bin 8-Bit installation timelapse from Jude Buffum on Vimeo. ALSO: ich bin 8-bit has been extended! media packs are now available for the press, and new articles [...]

I’ve finally managed to whittle down almost 2,000 images from our Berlin trip into a mere 500 or so. Please note that some of these photos (especially the hilarious “censored” last set — totally worth the scroll down, way down) may include some images that are not exactly work-safe, though they are pretty tame to [...]

I’m back in my (now seemingly super bright yellow) office in Los Angeles, drinking a latte and taking a short break from sorting through 1000+ photos from our trip to Berlin. It’s weird being back. I mean I’m incredibly happy to be home, back in my own bed, spooning with Jen and the dogs, doing [...]

5 dedicated artists. 48 hours. 15,000 Post-It Notes. Only ONE hour of sleep for me. (Though it was a glorious one!) It was utter jet-lagged madness to say the least. But by some miracle we managed to finish installing the “ich bin 8 bit” exhibition at Neurotitan Gallery in Berlin within 2 days! I’m surprised [...]
