Haunted Hop: Version 2

Here's my poster of Roky Erickson with the full bill for the New York Night Train Haunted Hop on October 31st at Knockdown Center. Tickets still available HERE

Haunted Brown

Another Halloween is approaching and you know that means the Haunted Brown Latte Throwdown is upon us. My good bud, Trey, the great coffee slinger, film-maker, father of the century, and super inspiring human hit me up for a quick poster to promote his great event. We wanted to take a little inspiration from Evil Dead for this one but after a couple sketches we decided to make it not so obvious. Check out the link----> COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE for all the details and keep those evil saxophones blasting into the night!

Beak Glass

One of my good buddies from the motherland of Corning, NY who now lives way up yonder in Portland, Maine hit me up recently about needing an illustration to slap on t-shirts and stickers for his glass blowing studio and you know I'm always there for a friend. After we decided on a sweet art trade, it was on! Dave now has this illustration and I am the proud owner of some magical glass blown pipe wizardry. Check out Dave's amazing glass work and then check out them process pics below.

We decided after this first round that, even though Dave loves all the crazy metal band fonts, his work doesn't really scream METAL! More psychedelic weirdness, so we started on a new approach incorporating Dave's nickname/studio name and some drippy honeycomb patterning. We still kept a small bit of that scratchy/veiny lettering in the end.

  

New Gimme! Coffee A-Frames!

Some brand new a-frames for Gimme! Coffee in Williamsburg. There's a new mega fridge in the shop, full of fancy juices, matcha, kombucha, and 'gurt and I couldn't help but think of the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey when I first saw it. 

It's October so I might as well use this month to give some nods to my favorite horror films and we're kicking it off with a salute to Dario Argento's neon witchy ballet flick, Suspiria. I did an homage to the creators of the films soundtrack, Goblin, a few years back so I dug that photo out as a nice companion piece. I really think I've made a valiant effort at getting better photos of these signs over the years. I mean, just look at that little thumb blur, distracting background, and slightly out of focus look on the Goblin pic. Someone was definitely not givin' 2 shits.

Rat Ripper Pins!

I made this coffee rat a-frame a couple years ago as a homage to the Powell Peralta Ripper graphic and a lot of people asked if there would be shirts or mugs made from it. There were a few false starts but finally, we have something!!! There will be another incarnation of it in a few months but check out these sweet pins for now! At the moment they are available in Cleveland, OH at Passengers Cafe and Coffee Coffee Coffee but I'll have them for sale on my site shortly. My good bud, Trey, made this insane package and also sent along a couple of mugs I had made for his shops back in the winter. What a guy!
