Ben Harper at The Warfield

Ben Harper is one of my all time favorite artists. I’m very proud to have been given the chance to design this poster for him for his appearance at The Warfield in San Francisco on Thursday, August 25, 2011. I went for a rocking 1968 Cougar – which always looked like a spaceship to me as a child – piloted by Ben. Looking forward to a great journey through the depths of Ben Harper’s amazing multifaceted universe tonight!

Soundgarden San Francisco Poster

“Summer Print-athalon 2011” culminates with my Soundgarden, San Francisco poster. There’s so much symbology in the details of this poster, that I think it’s more fun to let you figure it out. So I won’t say anything here. Overall theme is a soothsayer; I feel a lot of Soundgarden’s lyrics are broad and mystical – having a prophetic quality. The figure is one of my Evil Masonic Voodoo Zombies (perhaps a more serious, 33rd degree version).

God this show rocked! I love when the poster and the stage coincidentally (or synchronistically) match. During “Black Hole Sun” the eye in the forehead of the skull grew into a big black dot like the poster – and then turned into a film projection of the sun with an edge of coronal mass ejection – it was veeeeeery cool.

5 colors on archival cream paper
