DC Brau “Cats Down Under the DC Stars” collaboration T-shirt…
This weekend kickass brewery and all around good folk DC Brau will be releasing a limited run of T-shirts we collaborated on entitled “Cats Down Under the DC Stars“. They will available at the weekly Saturday tasting/tour at the brewery in DC starting this weekend and all net proceeds will go to help out the Central Union Mission. It’s getting colder out there so go pick one up…. it is a good cause.
Some early concepts…
UPDATE – A limited amount of shirts are available on the temporary SCRAPED KNEE store site (current store/site being rebuilt). There are stickers in that same store available and a run of limited prints will be up in the next week or 2. Be sure to check back.
Eric Church posters… Charlottesville & NYC 2014!!
There are a few bands that I have been lucky enough to engrain myself into their fold and have been giving me business year after year. Eric Church is one of them and with a new tour and a new album I was given the task of doing 3 prints for 3 big tour stops,… Charlottesville, NYC (Madison Square Garden) & Philadelphia. Country music is not necessarily my forte but I have always embraced the opportunity it gave me to introduce myself to a new audience. With this tour EC & the boys were going with that of a biker/American outlaw motif which brings to mind whiskey, weed, motorcycles & bar fights. Stuff out of Hunter S. Thompson’s “Hells Angels” book.
I live in Oakland and the legacy and imagery of the old Hells Angels is pretty strong here. I started off with a slew of sketches, not necessarily with specific cities in mind but wanted to skew more toward the look of the 60’s & 70’s bike clubs. I usually go apeshit with color but with all of the Church posters I’ve done, I think 8 or 9 total now, I’ve tried to use a limited color palette and simplified design. Well,… simplified for me.
Charlottesville isn’t necessarily seen as a biker kinda town but it is surrounded by miles of beautiful highways and roads through the Appalachian & Shenandoah Mountains. Lots of farmland and open skies…. basically good riding.
The New York City vibe had to be totally different. More gritty and concrete. Nothing like some bloody knuckles and handcuffs. Unfortunately the 3rd poster design was completed but the VIP experience, which included the poster merch, was cancelled so it will have to be used for something down the line.
The Charlottesville poster is 18′ x 24′, 3-color and had a print run of 90. I will have a very limited run of Artist Prints (signed/AP) available the day after the show Friday, Oct. 17 @ 11AM (PST).
