So after a tonne of work, 3 hours of hard labour and a bunch of awesomeness from Clint, Dave and Mike, my art is now hanging on the walls of Permanent Records.It's a great space and my work looks really great there. There are 16 pieces in total and they will be constantly changing as the work sells. This is really how the work is meant to be seen- as part of the scene and movement that inspired it. I couldn't be any happier with how everything worked out. So go check out the great music selection at Permanent Records, admire my art, listen to some great tunes and meet Clint, Dave and Mike. They are three really great guys with a great record store.

Murder By Death

Murder By Death are one of my favourite bands in the entire world. Their albums are spectacular and their live show is something to behold. So when they held a contest to design the art for their split 7" with The Builders and the Butchers, even though I had semi retired from entering contests, I jumped at the chance. Unfortunately, as with all the contests that I enter... I lost... that is why I stopped entering so many contests and why it takes something really special to draw me out of my self imposed entering contests retirement. However, in this case, the winners are quite deserving and therefore I don't feel bad at all. I gave it my best shot. I worked long and hard on these and am really proud of how well they turned out. They look stunning in person. They were all made using spray stencils and silver foil on a reclaimed album cover.
