Widespread Panic “Spring” Variants Photos

For some reason around noon it was a little difficult to post additional photos of the variations on my Widespread Panic “Spring” poster.

Above you can see that the 8th color on the Copper Tortoise-shell Edition is a white to accent the eyes and teeth.

Below are two views of the Gold Foil Edition poster. Click to see these larger.

I made this poster as a companion piece to the Widespread Panic Milwaukee poster from last November.

My poster for Widespread Panic in November was primarily done in orange / red / yellow or Autumn colors.

–

This companion is in greens and light greens and green tinted gold evocative of Spring. The layered

explosion forms burst out of the background like plant-forms. I brought the background over the blue metallic

of the female figure in a very light transparent white and over her hair as a very very light ochre varnish.

–

I turned this figure toward the Autumn WSP, used the same size, proportion and framing to make this a beautiful compliment to the first piece.

Editors, Antlers, The Dig at The Warfield

The Editors, Antlers and The Dig put on a great show. Enjoyed thoroughly!

–

When I began to meditate on the idea of an Editors poster I began by thinking of all the writer friends I have out there thrashing out ideas against the background of the cold infinite and warm divine. I was tweaked on the ass by the good old Existentialist Albert Camus and his edict that “the absurd is the essential concept and the first truth.” So I poured out this design in heavy metallic blue and metallic red with a deep blue tint. Against a backdrop of the depths of space, the ever present modularity of the keyboard of modern reality.

Here’s a preview for my poster for the ever cool Jerry Joseph on January 28 at the Mercury Lounge in Goleta, California.

Jerry plays solo, with his rock band the Jackmormons, and with The Stockholm Syndrome. He’s played around with Vic Chesnutt, Pete Droge and Dave Schools of Widespread Panic. On this solo tour he’ll be playing songs from his recently released album, “Into The Lovely.”

–

“Into The Lovely” features a who’s who of Portland musicians including Jennee Connlee (The Decemberists) on keyboards, Willy Vlautin (Richmond Fontaine) on vocals, Steve Drizos on percussion, Mike Lewis, Pat Kearns and Joseph’s co-hort from his Little Women days, Steve James, on guitar.
