All artists need to shout this from the rooftops! The Opt out option is toothless, it leaves it up to the AI companies to comply with the opt outs
this sucks and I hate it

Sayōnara, Attack on Titan! The Final Season - Part 3, the FINAL episode, airs on November 4th in Japan and the Americas and Nov 5th in Europe and the Middle East. In honor of the end of the series' 10 year run, i'm releasing a limited edition 24x36" poster with Spoke Art capturing a rarely seen moment when a Titan appears in a flash of light and steam. In an instant it's skeleton forms, followed by muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Levi, Eren, and Mikasa of The Scout Regiment swoop in to attack with their ODM gear, thunder spears, and blades. With the 60 meter tall Colossal Titan looming over Wall Rose, humanity must fight to survive. I've been wanting to make an Attack on Titan poster for years and was always scared about how much work it would be and I was right to be scared cuz it was SO much work, but also so fun creating this scene and mood and lighting it. Edition of 100 releasing Saturday Nov 4th 2023 at 1pm EST at https://spoke-art.com/

Out now! Welcome To The Arts: Dance. The largest project i've ever worked on, 45 illustrations including the cover. I illustrated dance from around the world including: Hip-Hop, Flamenco, Ballet, Contemporary, Ballroom, Kpanlogo, Kabuki, Salsa, Tap, and more. Also included are dance legends like Antonio Gades, Sir Matthew Bourne, Pina Bausch, Akram Khan, Rudolf, Nureyev, Martha Graham, The Nicholas Brothers, and more. Just researching for this book was a massive effort, on top of composing and executing the art. This book launches Big Picture Press' new Welcome To The Arts series. Written and curated by Sadler's Wells' artistic director Sir Alistair Spalding. Yes it was written by a knight! Big thanks to Oliva, Winsome, Joanna, Alistair, and my wife Jen and dog Dubu who saw very little of me for months as I toiled away on this book. I hope ya'll like it and get inspired to go out there and watch performances, research, and ultimately get your dance on!

I've been working on this for way too long after our trip to Korea this summer. I was born there, studied abroad at Yonsei University in Seoul in 2001, and have been back many times and am always inspired but never do anything with that inspiration until this time. I wanted to show the mix of traditional and modern. Jeonmo paper hats and janggu drums with black combat boots and double dutch braids. We played yut nori 윷놀이 (game with 4 wooden sticks you toss in there air like dice) with my in laws. I got my first tattoo there this summer amidst the rising tattoo culture in Seoul (I first got my stone name stamp 도장 in hangul the Korean alphabet and then a tattoo of that). The mountains depicted are from Irworobongdo, a folding screen painting featuring the 5 famous peaks of Korea (4 are in South Korea) and the sun and the moon and was always behind the king's throne during the Joseon era. We didn't hike any of the 5 famous peaks but we did hike beautiful Chiaksan to Seryeom falls, and drank lots of soju from modern green bottles and kimchi from onggi 옹기 clay pots. We rode the high speed KTX Eum train at 260km/h from Seoul to Wonju. We saw ocean waves at Gangmun beach and modern hanbok 한복 dresses (this one has short sleeves and a defined waist) worn around Gyeongbokgung 경복궁 royal palace in Seoul. Koreans adorn the shrines, temples, and hermitages with colorful dancheong 단청 design motifs. And of course we saw a lot of the taegeukgi 태극기, the South Korean flag with the red and blue 태극 swirl and 4 black trigrams in the corners. Everything I just mentioned is in this poster and if you haven't already, go visit Korea, especially since the won is so weak and currencies like the US dollar can buy so much there. And finally, heres the Vogue travel cover from 1918 that was my inspiration which oozes way more style and dynamism than I could ever hope for. Why can't we have covers like this anymore? You can buy this 24x36" poster HERE on my Society6 page, or in other sizes too. Thanks for looking and reading 감사합니다!
