Hyperactive Hooligans!!!

Howdy folks!!! It's been a crazy week. Powerful gusts of winds downed our interweb lines. But never fear, our hyperactiveness is unstoppable and that's why I'm gonna share some recent projects. First up, I drew up the image below for the talented artist, Linda Panda's X-mas gift.


Even though they aren't any monkeys in it, I still think it's pretty hyperactive and I had super fun time drawing it up. Next we have Week 2 of the 2011 Hyperactive Monkey Post-It Project. Let's take a looky!!!



Those are some funny looking Hyperactive Hooligans. Anyhoo, I'm still busy working on a bunch of fun projects. So stay tuned and I might just give you sneak peak!!! Hyperactive Monkey out...for now!

Happy Hyperactive Monkey New Year!!!

Golly Gee!!! It's been awhile since I've made a post, but that's what you get when you spend the holidays deep in the monkey jungles of monkey land. Anyhoo, 2010 was a great year for Hyperactive Monkey. We pretty much exhibited at all the west coast cons and boy did we ever meet some great fans and talented artists. Speakin' of lookin' back, while I was doing some cleaning in the Hyperactive Monkey office, I stumbled upon this lil stack of post its. It was little project I started about 3 years ago at my old day job. They were lots of phone calls and meetings that were kinda boring so I used to doodle on lil' post its while no one was looking. I used to do one a day. After 49 days, I had drawn 49 Post-It monkeys!!! Here's the first set!
And the second set...And the third set...
And finally the fourth set...So this lil' project got me thinking about a new post-it project. Something more ambitious and better. So guess what? I plan on doing a 2011 Hyperactive Monkey Post-It Project. This will entail a post-it monkey doodle-a-day during the work week for the entire year of 2011. And I'll post 5 at the end of every week. Ambitious? YAY! Crazy? YAY! Utterly Hyperactive? YAY!!! So here's the first set of monkey post-its for 2011.
It's gonna be a fun 2011 from the Hyperactive Monkey lab. We got so many upcoming new projects many of which are top secret, but I'll maybe let you guys sneak a peak in upcoming weeks. So stay happy and hyperactive! Enjoy!

MONKEY TRON!!!

Here's a fun one!!! A few weeks my day job had a cool opportunity to take the Tron Light Cycles that they make and customize them for a show at Culver City's Royal-T. So what did I decide to deck out my light cycle as? MONKEY TRON OF COURSE!!! Here's my initial sketch for my concept.


So the next step involved me sculpting a little monkey that would fit on top of the light cycle. Let's take a looksie!!!


After I was happy with my sculpt, I spray painted the light cycle a nice Chiquita banana yellow with green highlights. I even made some nice little stickers for the sides. Then I painted the monkey a nice purple with a pink lil' butt. Here's a 360 degree view of the MONKEY TRON!


Here's a little collage of me and my bike at Royal-T Cafe along with some other great customs from Disney and our office.


Whewwww. It took a solid 3 days of work, but I was quite happy with my MONKEY TRON!!! I'll be seeing you soon in THE GRID!!! De-rezzing out my fellow Hyperactive Monkeyers!!!

A BOOTHFUL OF HYPERACTIVE MONKEYNESS!!!

Howdy y'all!!! It's been busy last few months in the Hyperactive Monkey kitchen. We just got done a few weeks ago exhibiting at this years Designer Con in Pasadena. It was our greatest show yet!!! We were greeted by so many happy new and old fans excited to see our booth. Nearly all our Heartbreak Edition Ninja Monkeys sold out!!! 2 sold before the show even started!!! WOWEEEEE!!! Can you spot the 4 Deadly Ninjas in the photo below? They may be tougher to find than Waldo.


Here's a closeup of the Hyperactive Monkey Game of Death Cartridge next to Tracy Tubera's custom at the Squid Kids Ink So Analog Custom Show at D-con!!! These two are getting ready to throw down!!!


So that wraps up our awesome Saturday at the show. It was a super busy and super fun show for everyone who went. I'll wrap up with a new skate deck design that I did for my day job's company's skate board design competition. I didn't place but it was super fun doing this board.

It pretty much sums up the essence Hyperactive Monkey; toys, junk food, Saturday morning adventures, robots, ninjas, and of course MONKEYS!!! Thanks again for the support!!! Talk to you soon Hyperactive Monkeyeers!!!

Hyperactive Monkey Goes To A.P.E!!!

Howdy Hyperactive Monkeyers!!! We just got back from this year's A.P.E in San Francisco. It was quite a fun filled 2 days despite a rainy Sunday. But even the rain is no match for our hyperactiveness. We got to meet up with some great fans from previous shows and even made some new ones. Take a look below at all the monkey goodness we had!!!


Speaking of goodies. We still have some of the A.P.E exclusive Deadly Ninja Monkeys Eggplant Editions available.


You can buy them right here at our store (http://hyperactivemonkey.bigcartel.com/). We have a small supply of our skateboards also there. Anyhooo, thanks for stopping by and keep Hyperactive Monkeying away!!!!

Long Time No Monkeeeeeeee!!!

Wowzers!!! It's been quite a few months since I've posted anything. Here's a quick little recap of this summer. In July we returned to Anime Expo sharing with our fans all of our new monkey goodness. The nice folks at Squid Kids Ink let us share their both with them. Take a look at our booth setup below.


That was a great show. Let's see what else we've been up to. How about this? What do you get when you add Shaolin Monkeys and skateboarding together? I'll tell ya. You get Finesse and Hyperactive Monkey Skate Decks. Steve James was kind enough to let me design a Finesse Skate deck. These go on sale in a few weeks on our website.


Here's some other exciting news. This past weekend I was able to partake in my first art show at Rothick Art Haus. Here's my art piece entitled "Shaolin Ninja Monkey Zombie Delight!". It was quite an honor to be in the show, but the fact the piece sold within the first hour was so cool!!!


So that's pretty much what I've been up to for the last few months aside from perfecting my Shaolin Monkey Death Touch and the Monkey Ninjitsu Invisibility Technique. I got so much exciting news I plan to share with you in just as few days. So keep in touch and stay tuned. MONKEYS UNITE!!!
