I'm so excited to post my collaboration with Becky Cloonan. Try to guess who drew what... Becky and I have been buds for years and we both love HIGH ON FIRE and Universal Monsters. The lady on the poster is Countess Marya Zaleska from the movie Dracula's Daughter.
So when the band hit me up to do the poster for their Columbus, OH show - I decided to see if Becky was game to geek out on a gig poster with me. My respect for Becky is limitless so I had to really push myself to match her skill and full on metal coolness. (I mean c'mon...she has her own wikipedia page!) Sleep was lost. Pizza was burnt. Daylight was shunned. Brains were melted. But it was worth it. At one point I was drinking out of the cup I use to clean my brushes. That's how intense it was!
I sent Becky some ideas of what I wanted to do. In a few days she sent back finished art.(while on vacation in Scotland!) Which blew my mind because it was different that what I envisioned. It was better. From there I was inspired to go in a different direction and draw my hands off. We were both very surprised and happy with the results. Damn skippy.

In the past I've collaborated with Dave Johnson, Crankbunny and Buff Monster. So I'm stoked to add Becky to that list of artists I've been fortunate enough to work with. If you haven't seen Becky's work...you should go check it out right now. Same goes for the other artists I just listed.

This is a new piece of art created for the Blunt Fink show curated by Matt Dye of Blunt Graffix. The theme was to take an iconic pop culture movie and mix it with the style of "Big Daddy" Roth's - Rat Fink.

It was nice to show people I have more range than what they're used to seeing. Sometimes that creative box we comfortably create for ourselves needs to be renovated and built upon. Permeets? We don' need no stinkin' permeets!

It was fun to play with a few colors I barely ever use. It was also fun to "Fink Out" the Ghostbusters Logo. I was really honored to be invited into the show. Hope you guys dig it.
