Little Hurricane shirt…

I was approached the other week to create a new shirt for LA-music duo, Little Hurricane who were just starting up a new tour to promote their new album, Gold Fever. The band has a bit of a White Stripey vibe to them and really pull a lot off with just 2 people. The idea with the art was to create something rustic, something dusty, something Canyon-hippie-ish if you will.

You can get a copy of the shirt through them, though I don’t know where yet. I do know that they are currently selling these shirts on tour and I bet they will pop up on their website in a bit.

Scraped Knee Studio visit..

It’s been a while but I thought I’d share some pics of the ol’ Matt Cave studio…

Homemade flatfile made last year. I have been thinking of putting up a small photo tutorial on how to make a set of flatfiles for under $100. Simple & easy.

The ol’ couch were I do all my “deep thinking” below a sweet triptych by Steven Harrington.

I used to sit around make “God’s Eyes” for days on end w/ sticks from an Arboretum in back of my house. It was a nice little form of working meditation. I once made one that was 5ft. in diameter with 4 sticks, a mammoth, but city living doesn’t translate to space for bigass art pieces. Who knows what happened to them all.

Two of my Bigfeets by artist Bigfoot One. who is probably the only artist I can say I collect. I don’t have too many of his pieces up on the wall, as I try to keep my Sasquatch obsession somewhat on the down low.
