Once again, the folks at AIR never cease to amaze me. The girl working there, Jen, let Lauren and I stay late to get our pieces done, and we did our best to not disappoint.
Lauren got her robots prints together, a sweet piece drawn by her friend Andrew. As per usual, she shies away from the spotlight.
I finally got to put my one up flag idea into production, proving that not all of my ideas end up in the ether for eternity. And it actually came out pretty decent!
Now I can have the sweetest front porch in existence, one up flag flying in the wind.
Yep, I’m finally getting these bad boys together. Thanks to the awesome people at AIR for helping me with the screening process! The one on the right is the original screen, and the guy on the left is my first attempt at “weathering” the piece. Below are some different versions, as I worked with some variations of tea, coffee, paint, and wine to get my desired effect for the weathering. The final pieces will be 11 x 16, hand signed and numbered editions of 24. Let me know if you want one!
Yes, The Walking Dead is over until next October. I was so enthralled by the show however, that I decided to dust off my pen and ink and get my own little homage to the show together. It was a short time after this decision that I realized I wanted to put my first poster together. After a bit of research, I stumbled upon this rare gem:
Apparently a movie called the Walking Dead, starring none other than Boris Karloff, was shot in 1936. I’d found my muse. I would make a poster for the new show, that paid homage to the poster of old.
I still have a good bit of tweaking to do to the final poster, especially to the colors, but I’d like to try and get a screen print together sometime soon. Maybe even sell a few prints. If anyone would want one, please drop me a line.
Start the reactor. Free Mars…
Yes, I finally got my Tyler Stout Posters in the mail this week. This guy’s work is amazing. It has a vector look to it, but also takes me back to contour line drawings in art school. Also, his color choices are how you say, choice. Check out his artwork here.
The left poster is Total Recall, and the right is Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. These two movies are up there on my list of glorious glitter from the 80s and early 90s, in my opinion the Renaissance of cheesy movies. Both of these guys are limited edition, hand numbered Alamo prints. Really excited to finally get a couple of these, as these guys put together some amazing work.
