2 new Eric Church prints… Canada Tour 2013!!!!

Hey hosers, the Eric Church train has come around again and this time it’s going to Canada. 2 new prints, for the latest tour….. Lethbridge, SK & Regina, AB which are both going down this weekend. These make the 3rd tour & 6th poster I’ve done for Church and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the response to not just my prints but all the artists prints involved in these tours. People seem to love em’ and the guy has a massive following.

Both prints are 3-color (18’x24′) and signed / AP (Artist Prints). For those who are unfamiliar, “Artist Prints” are the artist copies allotted to them from the same print run as the “numbered” edition. Basically, a band asks for blank amount, they say you can print blank amount for yourself. There’s are too be numbered, yours are “AP”. Some bands still don’t mind if artist copies can be apart of the the numbered edition, but it is becoming less and less. I say this because a lot of people have been asking why I only sell “AP” on some prints.

Both prints are now currently for sale in the Posters section.

Ernie Ball ads,… Guitar Wizards & Masters

After years of postponing I recently bought a guitar and have been trying to learn to play. Doing art all day (and many times at night) requires a necessary secondary outlet to avoid going mental and music fills that slot perfectly. I have had many friends in bands and remember hanging out in their studio/rooms/gigs and seeing the same very recognizable guitar string packets lying around. I never knew what it was but remembered the packaging which ended up being Ernie Ball strings. As luck would have it I was contacted by them a couple months back to work on a couple projects for them.

Ernie Ball has been the top guitar string company out there for decades and have jumped into the market of releasing their own guitars as well. I have a couple things in the can with them but wanted to share a pair of ads that unfortunately got nixed at the last second.

They were big fans of an old My Morning Jacket poster I did and the old Topps baseball card style and wanted to try a few ads with some of their sponsored guitarists (Kirk Hammett, Steve Vai, Slash, John Pertucci, etc..). The ads were finished but eventually got pulled…

Zac Brown Band Springfield, MO print…

I was recently contacted by the Zac Brown Band to do a print for their current,… the Springfield, MS stop. I was a little unfamiliar w/ the band but know they have a pretty huge following and got a kick out of their music video “The Wind” done by Mike Judge.

Anywhoo… I was happy to do it. They really wanted to steer clear from typical “country” references, which I was more than happy to do so I thought I would explore the idea of a country wizard. The print is a 5-color and is a limited run of 80 prints.
