String Cheese Incident “Cosmic Shaman” Oakland print…

Another day,.. another poster. The Fox Theater in Oakland has just been chalk full of good bands rolling through this past couple months which is great because it just down the street. Boulder-based cosmic voyagers, The String Cheese Incident stopped into town for a 3-day run this weekend and reached out for me to do a special print. Last time I worked with them for the their 20th Anniversary New Years print they were fun to work with and people seemed to enjoy the print so I was looking forward to another collaboration.

The concept for this one was a kind of Cosmic Shaman as their music, especially the electric stuff, gets really zoney & spacey. Lots of lights and colors during their stage performances. Not much differed from the actual concept sketch which is pretty rare.

Printing was done by Ray & folk over at Good Thoughts with a nice gold border and popping fluorescent inks and came out to be 6-colors… 18’x 24.. The print run was 375 and I will be selling 45 copies signed/numbered.

Queens of the Stone Age print, SF

Rock behemoths The Queens of the Stone Age are on tour again and rampaged through San Francisco last night. I was hired by the promoter/venue to come up with a print for the show and definitely had a little geek out moment because I’ve been listening to QOTSA for a while and have always wanted to do a poster for them.

I kind of went ape shit with concepts thinking of everything from mech-punks to beheaded dragons but in the end I kept going back to the image of Charon the Ferryman from Greek mythology who would carry fresh souls across the River Styx. Pretty striking looking dude..

The poster had a print run of 400,.. and I currently have 30 AP’s available in the POSTER section. It is a 5-color print, 18’x24′.

Widespread Panic, Oakland print… Foxy lady!!!

This weekend ol’ workhorses Widespread Panic are making their way through Oakland. The current tour has limited dates and unfortunately I was not asked to do a print for it this time around but funnily enough got a call from the promoter, Another Planet Entertainment, of the Oakland show to make a commemorative piece.

This happens a lot but not to step on any toes I checked w/ the band to make sure it was cool. I believe the poster done through the band for this stop is Chuck Sperry, but this one is through the promoter/venue.
