A raccoon on a motorcycle laments over being a poser, a sloth finds itself exhilerated after a bike ride, and a raging cat screams that, despite its snarling teeth, it’s not angry. The self-conscious, awkward, and excitable creatures are the latest additions to ’s growing cast of characters, which follow featuring a pack of self-deprecating dogs and a herd of disorderly, drunken cats.
Zupa tells Colossal that he’s spent the last few months riding his bike near his home in Commerce City, Colorado, each morning—rain, snow, or sunshine—and this dedication has translated to his work. Many of his recent prints and greeting cards feature animals mid-cycle as they contemplate their television habits and whether their helmet really does make them look corny.
Currently, Zupa is preparing for a solo show opening in June at in Los Angeles. His work will also be included in a group exhibition opening in July at in New York City. Shop prints and greeting cards featuring the illustrations shown here on .
