Welcome Jay Chuppe.



Jay Chuppe is kind of a big deal in the world of art and design. I was lucky enough to con him into developing a new logo for the DER STEINFROSCH character. It's a winner and I'm proud to have another local artist contribute to the evil mayhem devil frogs bring.

Jay has been doing illustrations and seps for screenprinted
t-shirts for the last 15 years as a full time freelance illustrator. From his basement lair in Paducah, KY he... provides work for clients all over the country that sell in many national retail chains.

He's provided t-shirt designs/illustrations for WWE, NFL, NCAA, Disney, Universal, Warner Brothers, Blue Collar Comedy Tour, Hanna Barbara, King Features, Rainforest Cafe, NASCAR, Animal Planet, The History Channel,
Blues Traveler, & Yonder Mountain String Band...as well as created many other original characters & illustrations for various screenprint t-shirt companies.
In 2007 he also launched his own preprint t-shirt line called
Kenfunky Tees, which he also designed and hand printed
himself (www.myspace.com/kenfunkytees).

He has also provided work/cartoons for humor magazines
CRACKED, Jokester, and Thwack. He is currently
working on his creator owned comic book project,
the Western Kentucky based heroes "Red Mullet & CowBoy",
which was a top 50 finalist in the Platinum Studios
Comic Book Challenge in 2006, & the 4th Place finisher
in the 2008 Comic Book Challenge. He's also just begun
developmental work on his second creator owned idea, BobCat.
