MidwestLove Art & Design

I just had to share this, mostly because the illustration makes me laugh. Madison show promoters, TRAgency have commissioned me to do a series of printed posters for their upcoming shows. I was given complete artistic liscence to do whatever I wanted for each, so my goal for the series is to be as diverse as possible while remaining relevant to the style of each show, and also to try out some new techniques. This was a mix of illustration and digital art. The main character (I named him “Ponce DeLeChicken”) was done with pencil, inked and scanned. The backgroud is a blank page out of my wife’s grandmother’s antique scrapbook that I’ve been waiting to utilize for a while now. The big orange “C” has no significance whatsoever. It just looked right and framed the illustration nicely. I wish I had some more insight into it’s reason for being there, but there is none. Thus is life.

I’m going to try and make updates more frequently on here so all of you with RSS subscriptions can have more MidwestLove in your inbox everyday.
