ἢ τὰν ἢ ἐπὶ τᾶς

My recent ascent into fatherhood has kept me from being able to create new artwork (though my definition of art now includes my daughter), so I haven't posted in a while. But - I was finally able to get back into something this week, mostly painted during naps (hers, not mine). This started as the inkwork for the Gym Class Heroes' Berserkers graphic I did (which was colored digitally), now watercolored and with new lettering. In case anyone cares, the lettering is greek and means "Either [with] it [your shield], or on it" - a spartan battle motto, meaning you either come home with your shield (victorious), or on it (honorable death in battle). Those were the only two choices.

Just finished another graphic for Gym Class Heroes, this one for their fall 2011 US tour. They're doing a motorcycle club theme and this is being printed on hoodies and embroidered into MC back patches. Pretty cool stuff, I hope I can get one when they're printed. Full graphic first, and a closeup below.....enjoy.
