At least the scenery was nice

I found this image on the internet, made all the mountains even in the background, then added more sky.  It wasn't much work, but I love the way it looks.

Seeing red

This is a hand-drawn image of my friend James, scanned, and colored in Photoshop.  All the text, except for band descriptions, were hand-drawn as well.  These were printed in limited quantities as 11x17 posters.

The end of an era

This was my first shot at drawing something by hand, scanning it into Photoshop, then coloring and additional elements to the drawing in Photoshop.  It honestly turned out exactly the way I wanted it to.

This was another drawing I did for this show.  We had 3 different 11x17 posters for sale in a set at the show.  They were limited to 150 sets.  The girl was drawn by hand, scanned into Photoshop, and the rest was done in Photoshop.  The Holden Caulfield logo at the top was created by Mark Bogacki.  

I wish I could go back and do the arm on this poster different.  The grass and arm were both from photographs and the zombies in the background were hand drawn then scanned into Photoshop.  I created this Holden Caulfield logo - it will be featured in a different blog post later.

This is the original drawing for the first poster.

We all have Dead Hearts

I hate that I missed this show.  This was done entirely in Photoshop.

Sometimes legends do die

This may be my favorite piece that I've ever done.


This was for the final show at a beloved, all ages venue.  Everyone was sad to see it go so I decided to mark the occasion with a tomb stone design.  It took a lot of work to take it from the image below to the image above.  All of the tweaks and changes were done in Photoshop.

On a side note, this show was insanely fun, literally.  Everyone there was a lot of fun and the bands were killer.  The reason for the show was sad, but the show itself was incredible.

This is the original image.

You can't kill a dead man

This is a mock, just like the text in the image says, of Shephard Fairey's work on the Brother's Keeper "Fantasy Killer" album cover.  I took a photo of my friend Bobby, converted it to black and white, then started breaking down the shading in Photoshop to get the colors set up as close to the original as I could.  Fortunately, I had gotten the fonts from Shephard himself shortly after this album came out.  Don't take that as me saying that I know him, because I don't.  He's just a nice guy.
