YO! YO! YO! here's a huge project that i miserable failed at! LAUGH AT MY FAILURE! LAUGH AT ME! whatever... yo bat/caves was nice enough to let me do the art for there release, you think i would not fuck it up and not suck, but i couldn't not not not do that.. so i failed... here's the flyer for there cd release show which was alot of fun... videos of that coming soon...

the flyer i liked... but i failed at drawing lesly's face, failed.. but whatever, nobody cares about the art anyway, only the awesome cd inside! WHOOP!

 PRE FAIL

IDEA CONCEPT I

i also got to design the cd face itself which came out cool, here's black but lelsy did em in pink...

THEYRE AWESOME AND I AM SCUM! WHOOP!

ESCAPE FROM THE GEOMETRIC WASTELAND

the super sweet duders in "the musicianers" offered me to draw them a tour flyer, which is awesome! we decided to call their tour the "geometric wasteland" tour, and we drew a space snake escaping a wacky geometric prison doodle! COOOL MAAANN

i hope they have fun on their tour, theyre awesome!

rocks in the desert

so Sabertooth Cavity came back to el paso, last week or the week before.. i can't remember... but whatever, they asked me to draw em the flyer WHOOP! so i did... it was supposed to be a "rock the desert" show, so i took that concept to my usual stupid level... what rocks harder than a microscopic look at sand with floating geometric shapes! whoooo! here's the artt!

i'm also gonna design a sticker for em soon, so there's that... more flyers soon too and more stuffs also too soon.... hahahahaha...

ROAD TO SXSW!

the second: this show should be radd too, i need to head to the perc and post some more flyers!

i love when my flyers have a theme to them... i really do...

quickly

show flyer for terror eyes

(the band)

a quick one

one night

pretty decent huh?

still sucky, but for one night

i've done way crappier, and they've taken alot longer

emm emm arrrr

Mickey Mickey Rourke is the solo project of miller rodriguez... i can go into a long talk about him... but there are more interesting coller people doing it... here's some      L     I     N    K    S

so yeah... MMR is just cool stuff... here's some art i made for it... just for funsies...

this is the final submission.. the backdrop is inverted space, which kind of shows through the figure...

here's the lettering and the figure just in ink form..

i made a color page for the background purposes and i've been using it for everything... here's that and the rainbow version of the figure

i love the way the figure looks all rainbowy..

here's a remix of the original drawing... just because..

hells yeah.... yeah.... yeah... oh... yeah... go check out MMR... i linked it earlier!

the fact that they made it for adam is so cute!

been bussy... but never to busy for you baby.... ..... hahaha... here is a sticker i drew for bat/caves, one of my favorite local bf/gf-band-duos.... bat/caves is mike and leslie... there's more info about them.. but here it from them! anyways here's the sticker thing i made for em..

designing for them was very hard... because there was no reference material and they didn't give me an idea to what it was they were after. usually i have some idea as to what a band wants... but in this case, i was left to my own devices... so i did my best to convey something fun and colorful and random... i really like the way that squiggles change color over the polyhedron... but the color scheme isn't my favorite... here's the squiggle as i made it initially... with the colors that i originally had in mind...

pink on yellow is just an awesome color combination to me...

i had originally made the words in a different color... 

and i wanted to see how they would blend... but nothing really came out the way i wanted... so i mixed and matched until i got the final product.... if they did make stickers and i get a hold of one... i'll post a pic of it too...

more stuffs real soon... i'm working a design for mickey mickey rourke (miller from neon navajo's solo stuff) he didn't ask me to, but his stuff is chill... and it seems like the perfect music to accompany an idea i had... i'm almost finished with that one... once its done i'll post it up here of course... i also did another flyer for a show coming up... that's done and ready... so when i have time i'll post it as well... yo.... my art blogg is on facebook  so if yr on there add it up yo (nobody reads this) hahahahahaha.... i'd upload pics there... but my pc machine is pretty sucky... whatever.. i've been talking too much... check back later for more arts...

The show that wasnt

hey so this wasn't my show.. i was just trying to put it together last minute for funsies sake... but nah.. dozal's bailed out on me, and nobody showed up.... BUT BESIDES THAT... the show was fucken fantastic! our set was a barrel of chips, heathers set was radd... and the surprise shock set? WHOOOOO!!!!!

anyways here the art.. i know you don't care... but it is an art blog....

final

blah... background essance

of course it was inverted and added and blah blah blah... by the way... here's the scribbled drawing that it began as... i was trying to go for a rough concept.. something gritty. like the mutt artwork from total abuse... but it didn't matter anyway.. nothing happened or anything...so who cares...

you get the idea now? huh huh? huh? hahahah... who cares.. that night was wild.... then afterwards... ugh.....

phantasm series V

STRESS PHANTOM

this is the final piece in series... for a show this friday... a tour benefit show thing... its gonna be a big show and hopefully drama free...be there kidd!

here's the original drawing i did... black and blue ink.

of course i inverted it and threw some fun colors on there...

there's a b/w version that they made for promotion, but i didn't see it.. i'd love to of had a copy, but whatever... this is friday, so come out yo!

phantasm series IV

ILLNESS GHOST

this show turned out to be a huge mess... like random huge mess... and surprisingly the last shows at misties have aswell? usually things go fine there, but yeah... wtf? still a fun thing to draw, you know? this is the fourth part in the phantasm series, and since i don't have any commision work coming soon, it seems like it'll be a while before you see part 5... well fuck it... here's the flyer yo....

i like it because its simple and classy... i have a thing with caverns with the last two peices have you noticed that? i was fantasizing about feeling epoxy resin... fantasizing about the a cave into the ocean blue... but whatever.... yr not paying attention anyways...

phantasm series II (revisited)

back from the dead.... i told you this would never die... (begin creepy tape loop, dry ice fog, cue bag of dead bats to drop on the floor) regardless, stuffs coming! here is the same flyer as i did, two/three weeks ago, only slightly revised.. apperantly the band that cancelled, uncancelled...

i've suddenly come to the realization that nobody reads this thing, therefor making posting useless..... hahahahahahahahahah... tooo badd..... still gonna do it sucka!

i mean its not exactly the same, like the same general idea and a different drawing.. but either way... its chillen.. yo...

phantasm series III

A STRANGE REVENANT

myths is a band from canada, there like dark disko noise stuff, which is fucking cool... disko might be dead and famous, but dark disko still has that allure that drives me wild... plus it featurs lief the singer from mutators! and if you know me, in any way, you should i fucking love mutators!

well whatever i did the next installment of my phantasm series... i'm stupid, because i didn't upload the drawing before i added that layer of pastel... well whatever, no one cares anyway... here the final drwing... i love the way the pastel is just lightly on the page and colored in so badly, i like this flyer alot, although i bet people think it sucks....

infoooo: july 13th at the hideaway! myths! dozals! heart chemist! 9pm 3$ go go gog ogogogogog yo!

phantasm series II

A SPECTRAL SPECTER

part two of the series... this was a flyer for daytes, a band from san antonio... they were looking for a date here in town and i emailed them some links and and asked if i could do a flyer... they ended up doing it with some other band, and then dropped. hahahah... but still, i'll take any chance to draw a flyer.. here's version 1... which came out crappy...

but the bands weren't visible enough so here's the edit...

ehhh, i didn't like it, nah nah nah... but whatever here's the original...

but yeah, that version sucked... so i threw it to the wolves... to be eaten by bears... hahahahah... and i worked on a better version... here's the final...

yeah? yeah? i think this one came out better, like you know? hahahahah, here's the background color things

and plus the original b/w drawing yo!!!

infooo: july 16th the percolator with rawrr (albq) and sheeple and ralpheene and antigone is 5 bucks yo at 6

Phantasm series I

THE SUDDEN APPARITION

after going through some life doodles in reality town. i came up with the comcept of doing a series of drawings with deathy phantasmy kinda images... here's the first flyer

that was the final product something quick and simple and spacy and deathy.. hahahahah done for the band sheeple... here's how it came out without the spacey background...

doesn't that layer of spacey death, just make it more fun?? it was actually a photo i took of a broken cd on  cement last year in my roudy days of self destruction and drug abuse.. hahahahahah here it is yo!

and then the drawing without funsiness

show info// june 25th at the percolator with sheeple, joystick and the white lites (my typo... sorry guys) 4 dollars or a buck with purchase of an item 7pm yo

pee wee post apocalypse II (rebuilt society six)

so the show was supposed to be at harley's house, but nah we fused it with another show happening. a little bit of a lineup change and bahm! here's the flyer! kapoom!

it was a really fun show. just stressful... i don't really like putting shows together, because i'm always too busy to have fun. just checking on things and making sure shit runs smooth... but alas. it was cool... there's more of a story than that, but i'm lazy... sorry if it seems my blog has been a bit left undone. but i'm working on it....

oh by the way here's the original drawing...

show info: june 18th at sleepless nights with dead commuter, sabertooth cavity, bat/caves. and bogus blah blah blah

pee wee post apocalypse I (nuclear failure)

so sabertooth couldn't make it out last time, so they decided to come back again. unfortunately we couldn't nail a venue down... so we decided to throw the show at harley's house, here's a random fun colored flyer i did...

horse hair says all my stuff looks the same? what do you think? i mean... he definitely has a point... but you know, isn't that why people like my art stuffs? i don't know... maybe... who cares...  but shit didn't really pan out at this house, so we kinda moved the show and mutated a bit... but i'll save that for the sequel... COMING SOON! TO A "NOBODY CARES" NEAR YOU!

pee wee extravaganza

so this was all fun on a bun! i did the flyer for bogus's tour kick off and tour! whoo! bogus are awesome, and really nice guys. here's the show flyer in its different layers.... and yeah, i know, i've been doing a lot of layer drawings, but no more... the next set of arts will be different....

Back Layer

(pastel crayons inverted and photoshopped for classyness)

Front Layer

and KABLOOM!

but i fucked up a tiny little thing, and i had to fix it.....so.... RE-KEBLAMM! can you see what i fucked up? huh? can you?

well mz, really wanted this show to go well, so we even made some real flyers to pass out and stuff some half page size and a bunch of minis... since the real ones would be in black and white, i took my drawing apart and re-assembled it out of ash and graphite....

back layer

(it doesn't look like much like this, but on paper... it has a halftoney feel)

front layer

(inverted to fit the background)

andd POPP

and of course the mini FIZZLE

(i simplified this one just to the basic elements)

i told mz, the one condition of me helping to set this show up, i would get to draw a tour flyer for it! he reluctantly agreed and i made this thing. its the same concept as the show flyer, but slightly modified... i don't know if that's good or bad or stupid... but i like the idea of it... 

whoo.... that show was wild.... wild like a wildabeast... but you don't care, so there's no need to explain it to ya? INFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (i'm to lazy to put it up... ask if ya really want it)
