Umphrey’s McGee Poster Wins Award

umphreysmcgee_chucksperry2

I’m really happy to report that my Umphrey’s McGee poster won Expresso Beans Poster of the Week.

Great way to start 2010. Thanks to everyone for your support!

Congratulations to Aaron Horkey and Emek for winning 2009 Poster of the Year for their combined effort. I’ve come a long way in one year. I feel that the number two spot for my Widespread Panic poster reflects a positive change. I’ll keep kicking out the cool posters you just have to have for 2010.

Umphrey’s McGee with Cornmeal at The Regency

I designed and printed this psychedelic polliwog poster for Umphrey’s McGee with Cormeal at The Regency Ballroom, San Francisco on Saturday, January 16, 2010. The band dug it so hard they just about croaked.

Stare at this video for the full 1 and a half minutes – and then look at this poster

A li’l zen froggy digging a dayglo Lotus in an iridescent green metallic frog-pond.

I went for maximum Eye-Fry using an ultra powerful florescent red: I hand-mixed the red ink with extra flo’ powder, so the frog just leaps off the poster.

Blue outline for my fluorescent amphibian is mixed just right to knock your eyeballs into the Fourth Dimension. Shades optional.
