Collective Arts Brewing!

Canadian brewery Collective Arts Brewing has a long history of heavily promoting the artists that do the artwork that appears on their labels, which of course is awesome, and their beer is great too. I was lucky and got chosen to have one of my pieces on one of their beers this past spring, my neon werewolf guy. My first time having my art on beer here in the states. I haven't seen the beer in stores yet but I hope I can find some sooner or later, I'd love to try it.

Face & 3 Eyes 2 Beers Stickers

Just a couple fun little things for no reason. I made some holographic stickers out of the Face but they're sold out. There's a few left of the 3 Eyes, 2 Beers sticker in the shop though, get 'em while they're hot.

Drawlloween 2020

Drawlloween 2020 - I thought that maybe for once since we were all still on lockdown and there wasn't much to do outside the house, I might be able to get the whole month of Drawlloween drawings done and maybe even on time. I was wrong. I got like 5 done. Always too much going on, or I take too long, or maybe both. Anyway here's what I did get done: Day 1: Werewolf; Day 3: Changeling; Day 4: Poison; Day 5: Witch; Day 6: Familiar; Day 10: Hellhound; and Day 21: Yokai.

Murder Was the Case

This was just a fun little personal project that I thought would be funny. It eventually became stickers and tie-dye t-shirts, both available in the shop, of which I have a few left.

Sonic Temple

As everybody knows, live music has been non-existent for the last 16 months. This design was done for the 2020 Sonic Temple music fest, which never happened. The festival decided to print the shirts anyway, and just sell through their website.

Water Towers

So I've also assembled and painted two water tower models in the last few months. It's fun to go 3D sometimes. These were designed and produced by Mike Giannattasio (IG: @tower_makerone) - assembled and painted by me. The gray one is a model of a real tower in Syracuse, the New Process Gear tower in Franklin Square.

Rogue Dead Guy Ale

This piece was done to submit to Rogue Dead Guy Ale's Halloween 2020 beer label contest. Of course I didn't win but it was good practice for my inking hand drawing skulls and bones and stuff.

Drive-In

I did this poster for Aaron Lewis' (Staind) and Sully Erna's (Godsmack) October 2020 Drive-In tour. I had fun drawing all the various cars and all the little details. It felt like I was drawing a Where's Waldo page.

Catching Up

So it's been quite a while since my last post. Mostly because I feel like people don't much visit websites anymore, they just concentrate on the social media pages of that artist or company. If that sounds like you, you can find me on Instagram at @1000styles. In any case, I wanted to update this page a bit for those who still visit. So here goes, in non-chronological order. Windhand: One of my favorite bands. This was just for fun, not an actual commission, but I might do something like this if I was asked by them do do a t-shirt graphic or poster:
