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.
