Nuvolascura / Zmar - 5.8.2024 @ Gold Sounds

Quick banger mixing medical illustrations, blue prints, and some sacred geometry because shapes rule. Or something. I dunno, I spent more time trying to shop painfully lo-res screamo logos than I did actually making the art on this one.

Lagrimas @ Trans-Pecos - 6.18.2024

This art preceded the flyer, in case you were wondering how I feel about cops...

Will Haven @ Saint Vitus Gold Sounds - 4.14.2024

Got to make two versions of this because some people were worried that a disembodied butt might be distracting... Goal for this was to make something that looked pretty at first glance, but more like a serial killer's trophy on closer inspection.

Vic Ruggiero @ The Grassy Noll - 1.28.2024

Booked a semi-secret show with Vic from The Slackers at a speakeasy weed space named after the JFK assassination, so of course I had to do a conspiracy board full of in-jokes and It’s Always Sunny References…

Horsewhip @ Gold Sounds - 3.25.2024

Another attempt at making a joyful, less brooding metal flyer. Kids and horse were sourced from an old toy catalogue, while the scenery was cobbled together from a mix of castles, flames, and post-war rubble.

Mitchem - Out of the Dog Park CS

One of the best parts of my job is when my co-worker’s girlfriend stops by with their dog Mitch. He’s such a smart, cuddly, little gentleman… So obviously I had to slap together a tape full of Mayhem/dog puns, break into his other job at 3am, and leave it in the stack of cassettes he has to sort tomorrow.

Graf Orlock @ Saint Vitus - 9.16.2023

Keep feeling like I'm forgetting something big I need to post here and, oh yeah, this thing! Had the pressure pleasure of doing the flyer for Graf Orlock's last east coast show ever! Started by drawing over a classic Porky Pig and then tweaked things till I found the sweet spot between him and Count Orlock from Nosferatu.

Infant Island @ Gold Sounds - 12.15.2023

Infant Island is a Godzilla reference, but this was right around when the latest movie came out and Godzilla imagery was everywhere, so I tried to make a Godzilla themed poster showing as little of Godzilla as possible.

Locked In A Vacancy - ...Before The Dawn EP art, single, and EP release merch drop

Sprout @ Amittyville Music Hall - 11.25.2022

Weirdest/most fun job of 2022: Recreating the Misfits reunion poster from scratch for my friend JT. Fonts were matched. Guidelines were used. Jokes too offensive and/or self-deprecating to put on a poster were exchanged via text. Emails falsely accusing openers of serious(ly comical) crimes were sent at 5am.

Anyway, I’m super professional and you should give me money.

Eyelet @ Gold Sounds - 5.13.2023

More fun with flourishes!

Apes of the State @ Rubulad - 6.16.2022

This show happened to take place on the anniversary of The Great Rail Strike of 1877, and given the political (and train loving) sentiments of the bands involved, I decided to source all the images from archived local newspaper articles covering the event. Yay, history!

Blind Girls @ Gold Sounds - 5.1.2023

Early screamo meets vintage ad aesthetics. This one came together quick.

.Gif From God @ Gold Sounds - 6.10.2023

.Gif From God flyer depicting a .gif from God that is, itself, a gif.

Frail Body @ Gold Sounds - 8.4.2022

Behold my desperate attempt to fill every space imaginable with flourishes!

Assorted Stickers For My Own Dumb Amusement

My friend Chris started a sticker making company (Calcomanias). I had dumb ideas, insomnia, and some punk and black metal fonts.

First three: Charlie Kelly, Bob Ross, Frank Reynolds Bottom two: Discharge puns based on this song/album.

I still have some extra of a few of these so get at me if you want some.

.Gif From God @ Trans-Pecos - 4.23.2022

I have no idea where the guy with the fancy headgear comes from, so if you know, get at me because I’d really like to watch it. Hand is from some robot that will probably replace and then eradicate us in the coming years.
