Phoenix Warfield Poster

Just returned from the sold out Phoenix concert at The Warfield on Thursday, September 17, 2009. The (French) band loved it and said it had a very French style. We rapped about Paris and it seems we have some friends in common. Funny, overheard the band manager asking for VIP passes for Sofia Coppola, the film director. The crowd was fun and the room got moving! This poster rounds brings the Firehouse Goldenvoice Series to number 63.

I made 150 on Via Scarlet Red paper, and a very limited edition of 10 on Metallic Deep Bronze paper.

Jesus Lizard Poster

Poster ideas come from different places. This time: it was the paper color.

I knew I was onto something – when I cut this red paper down to a usable size at Sequoia Printing across the street from Hangar 18 – and everyone in the whole printshop stopped what they were doing and came over and complimented me on this beautiful red paper.

This design began as a four color process poster printing technique,

stripped down to two colors, with the red layer reversed and printed in gold,

so the red of the strong diagonal bars and lips is the paper color.

The effect is that the black areas punch a hole in the picture plane, and the gold pops forward.

Here’s the newest addition to my Power to the Peaceful series; I’ve done a silkscreen poster for the PTTP Concert every year since 2004.

I’m making my 2007 and 2008 Power to the Peaceful posters available here.

I’ll have a booth at Speedway Meadow in Golden Gate Park tomorrow, Saturday, September 12, 2009 for the 11th Annual Power to the Peaceful concert.

There’s a solid line up this year with Michael Franti and Spearhead, Alanis Morissette, and Sly & Robbie.

In additon Cherine Anderson, Vieux Farka Toure, Namkha Rinpoche, Sellassie and Truth Universal will open the show.

I’m looking forward to chill in the Park at this awesome free event, hope to see all my friends there!

Last week was a full schedule of printing Warfield posters for the Firehouse Goldenvoice Series.

Here’s Dave Hunter and I proudly showing off our unbelievably beautiful new poster for the Neville Brother and Dr. John.

I printed Dennis Loren’s Al Green poster (FHGV #59) last Tuesday…

Also I’ve been organizing the Malleus California Tour 2009. It’s going to be a really full schedule of great events and surprises.

I’ll be posting an announcement in the middle of next week so stay tuned! It’s going to be so fun hanging out with Urlo, Poia and Lu – and making some incredible art together… Can’t wait.

I’ll be returning to my own work next week with my new Power to the Peaceful 2009 poster. The show is coming up Saturday, September 12, 2009 and will feature Michael Franti and Spearhead, Sly and Robbie and Alanis Morissette. Here’s a look at the last two posters I’ve done for this series, posters for 2008 and 2007.
