Not sure you want these two "Office Mates" next to your cubicle. New 25centwonders coming to #DCC next month! I will be releasing at least 1 new Wonder each week so get ready!

[patrickballesteros]

Do you know what's great about Mondays? I don't know either but at least I can debut a new 25 Cent Wonders for you all. Stay caffeinated kids!

Reminder, stay strong and don't drink the "Vader Aid!" Exclusive 25 Cent Wonder coming to Emerald City Comic Con next month.

Farewell to our forever princess. Piece done for a Carrie Fisher tribute art show at the Perky Nerd in Burbank, CA. Show is still up and prints are available for anyone interested. May the force be with us all this week!

These girls have all the powers they need...from within. "EMPOWERED" is a limited print available in my online store for preorder. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the ACLU. Keep your heads up folks!

The only rule you will ever need to know and follow in WESTWORLD...don't mess with Maeve.

To all you lovely ladies, wives, moms, daughters, sisters, and grandmas...we hear you and stand together stronger than ever. Have a beautiful week everyone!

Smearing ink and making happy accidents. It's nice to just monkey around every once in a while. Happy TGIF folks!

Stay caffeinated today and avoid turning into a “Krangky Pants!” New 25 Cent Wonder making its debut at Emerald City Comic Con 2017 in Seattle!

Toad the Destroyer, the meanest bounty hunter in the tri-toad district. Fun fact he's also a gourmet chef.

Bath time=story time for me and my son. Lately he's been telling me the stories and last night involved a shark that went under water, turned into a rocket, and flew away. I know, sounds like an installment of Sharknado. Well here we have Shark Rocket as told by my son Oz. P.S. if anyone sees this from Sharknado production I am available for freelance 😬

The baristas at James Coffee Co were responsible for keeping the caffeine flowing. This meant a monthly pilgrimage to the Great Caffeinated Lakes of Honduras for a quick refill. Luckily they had along the Great White Buffalo mech to help lug the black gold back to San Diego.

Clandor's elite Calvary known as the lumber Jacks. Enemies beware of its mighty steel blades designed to chop its enemies down. . Inspired by a lot of helicopter studies I have been doing lately.

[patrickballesteros]

Thank you for being a role model to boys and girls.

Sending good vibes to all of you out there heading into 2017. Remember, The Force is with us all....ALWAYS!

Been watching this show all morning and loving every minute of it. Great characters and a super fun world! Give Trollhunters a watch on Netflix, it won't disappoint!
