Paul Madonna also writes and draws the weekly strip, All Over Coffee in the San Francisco Chronicle. His first book, All Over Coffee, was published in 2007 by City Lights Books, and the first edition of his new drawing book series, Album, will be published this November by Electric Works. Paul’s drawings and prints are shown in galleries and museums, and this summer a five-year anniversary show of All Over Coffee is on display at the Jewett Gallery in the San Francisco Main Public Library. And in 1993 Paul was the first ever Art Intern at Mad Magazine, for which he proudly received no money.
