Iron Invasion

Just finished this poster art for the 2019 Iron Invasion. Because this show is a traditional hotrod/bike show, I thought it would be cool to create the poster art to look like an old '50s EC comic. I think it works! There is an alternate version of this art that is being printed to t-shirts as we speak, so make sure and grab a shirt and a poster to support the cause if you're heading to the show. Thanks again John!

HYDRA-MATIC!

For those of you following my last few posts on Instagram and Facebook working on this piece, here it is done (finally). Sorry about the watermark, but I've been experiencing some bootlegging lately. This will be expertly screenprinted in 6 colors on really nice French paper within the next couple weeks by the homies at Zink Screenprinting in Oswego, as the first part of a local artist exclusive print series they're starting up. For anyone interested in buying a print, I've set up a pre-order in my webstore at 1000styles.bigcartel.com (or link to right). I won't have many of them (less than 20) - if you want one, don't wait on it. I'll post photos of the screening process and finished prints as soon as I can. Hope you like it, I put a lot of time and myself into this one.

Download Fest Art

I think I forgot to post this one. It's a t-shirt graphic done for last summer's UK Download Fest. Unfortunately never got printed. Woulda been nice to see it in print. Oh well --

Iron Invasion

I was lucky enough to score a commission recently to do some art for Iron Invasion, a big midwest hotrod and bike show held annually in Woodstock, Illinois. Too far away for me to go to unfortunately, but I'm happy to settle on doing some art for the event. This art will appear on t-shirts and a big banner at the event, and maybe some other stuff too if they decide to do so. Thanks to John Wells for hooking this up for me, I love doing stuff like this. You can keep up with the event at their Facebook page.

Retro Rewind

Looks like I forgot to post this image a few weeks back when I was cleared to release it - too many social media outlets to update and forgot my own damn site! Ah well, it's cool, the event is thiscoming weekend so no better time to post it than now. This is a graphic I got to do for the big RETRO REWIND traditional hot rod and motorcycle show happening this weekend in Dubuque, Iowa. This is being produced on flyers, t-shirts, stickers, and whatever else. Best I can tell, it's one of two major images the show organizer commissioned to promote the show with, the other done by the amazing Doug P'Gosh! I'm in some great company on this one, super honored to have done it! Thanks again John!

51 Tire and Transmission

Just finished this art for 51 Tire & Transmission's shop tees. Did two versions - one for dark shirts, one for light shirts, since they'll be printing both. Love drawing stuff in this style. All pen and ink except the lettering. Thanks Tony!

Louder Than Life

I was asked to create some t-shirt art for the Louder Than Life music festival that's happening in Louisville, Kentucky this weekend (Oct. 4/5). There are some really great bands playing and I guess it's also a celebration of fine whiskey and food as well as the music, wish I could've gone! They specifically wanted some hot rod/ed roth type art, so I came up with this. I'm posting two versions - I did the color-limited version first, and I still like it a bit better, but they wanted more color, so the second version is what was printed. I still dig it a ton, I just tend to gravitate towards limited color stuff myself. I'm sure the colorful version will sell more shirts though. Regardless, it was a great project, and they were actually kind enough to send me a couple sample shirts too - one of which I'm keeping, the other is for sale in my webstore. The print came out really nice - definitely proud of this one!

Primus Variants Update

For those of you waiting for Primus variant prints who missed my Facebook and Instagram posts from earlier today, you'll be pleased to know that I will shipping out all completed prints tomorrow morning (Thursday July 17 2014). Finally! I know it's been a while since you've placed your order and I apologize, but these prints had quite a bit more work involved than the average print, so I hope you'll be happy when you receive them and feel it was worth the wait. They were done in 3 stages - spraypaint first, then the black ink hand-screened by Galaxy Graphics (thanks again Evan), then I went back in and did some watercolor painting to fill in certain areas with more color. The image below shows them at stage 2 - right after the screen but before the watercolor. I think they're coming out really fresh...super grimy, heavy and hard hitting. I'll post an image soon of all 25 variants together so you can get an idea of their uniqueness - each is one of a kind.

Pretty Don't Win Races

Very proud of this one - hand drawn linework, digital color. I'll be painting over the linework in watercolor on the original piece (about 18x24") to create an alternate version as well. Hoping to be able to use this art in some sort of product - maybe a print, maybe a t-shirt, not sure yet. Gonna shop it around a bit and see if anyone is willing to pick it up. Hope you dig it.

Four on the Gore!

Recently finished this one for Lethal Threat clothing company. Definitely enjoyed doing this - another example of the hotrod/lowbrow style I've been really into lately. Inked by hand, colored digitally. I'll probably take the inkwork and create a variant of this with watercolor eventually like I've done with some other pieces.

'31 and Done

Got this piece in the May issue of Ol' Skool Rodz (#51), which should be on newsstands soon, if not already. Got the centerfold - super excited. Hope you dig it. Definitely looking forward to doing more like this.

SRH Biker

Here's a t-shirt graphic I recently completed for SRH out in San Diego. Hand illustrated with ink and a brush, scanned and colored in photoshop.
