Gallery1988 and Weird Al Yankovic, Show opened Friday, March 9


Gallery1988 and FunnyOrDie are putting on a show inspired by comedians. "Is This Think On? 2" opened Friday, March 9 at their Melrose Ave. location in Los Angeles.

Weird Al himself was there for the opening.

For my contribution, I chose a fellow Canadian, Mike Myers. And I depicted him on a faux concert poster for Waynestock. The date reflects when the movie opened and not when the concert was "fictionally" held.

It's a limited edition screenprint of 50.
18 by 24 inches
4 colour
Signed and numbered.

Now available on Gallery1988's site.

Check out this video from opening night. My print shows up a few times, prominently displayed under the Eddie Murphy portrait!

Pop culture art show at L|td. gallery in Seattle beginning Oct. 21


I'm very excited to announce that I will be a part of the grand opening of L|td. gallery in Seattle next month (Oct. 21). The subject matter of the show is pop culture so that left it pretty much wide open.

I decided to revamp an old design and get screenprints made. 25 total, signed and numbered, 4 spot colour on French 100# PopTone (teal) paper. The look I was going for was that of a concert poster. They will be available at the show. (they used my piece for a base of the poster - awesome)



The pose is based on Angel Nieves' 3D model shown here. He was kind enough to allow me to use the image for reference.

Just being on the same bill as the artists listed on the poster is an honour. Many of whom I admire greatly and have been good sources of inspiration.

So, if you live in the area or plan to be in Seattle over that time, stop by. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Cartoon Concert Posters

Here is my latest series. They are concert posters based on 1980s cartoons. I wanted to try my hand at doing gig posters but needed a subject, so I turned to my youth and thought these would make good, fun, fake posters. All are up and for sale now.

Some come in different colour combinations as well as 'distressed' to look aged. To see the rest, visit my Zazzle and Imagekind stores.











I also turned one of them into a concert tshirt. Some of the shirts have cities listed on the back. I plan to do the same with the other posters. All of the shirts are customizable by colour and shirt style. Many to choose from.




The above art and posters are in no way affiliated with any bands or shows. 100% unofficial.
