Bwana Spoons has been making art, zines, comics, toys, shoes, t-shirts, cards, and pretty much anything you could imagine for a long long time.  He’s inspired a lot of us art-makers to take things to the next level.  It’s been a long time coming, but now he’s got a book “Welcome to Forest Island” published by Top Shelf.  Here’s a little sampling of what you’ll find in Forest Island, a monograph of paintings, comics, mushroom hunters, bagel eating vampire bats, exhibitions and illustration work from Bwana’s career.

If you’re in Portland check out the book release party at Grass Hut (the gallery that Bwana co-runs) Saturday night!
