flickr

i've finally made a flickr page for available artwork. i've been asked a bunch of times about what i have available, and i realized i have no real way of showing art that i have available.

let me know if you have any inquiries/suggestions for the flickr page.

thanks!

album cover

for the cover band show at gallery 1988, we were given an album cover and asked to collaborate with the art on the cover.fortunately, i was given one of my favorite albums of all time.(the velvet underground with nico) i had a tough time trying to figure out the best way to add my touch to an already great album cover without ruining it.

this is what i came up with.

more.

i forgot to add this to the last post.this is another image i did for the band fall out boy.i think this one is supposed to go on a tshirt.
