Ottoman Turks • King Clam • Cliffs Show Poster Dallas 2022
Ive wanted to mess with an airbrush style forever, but never quite had the tools that felt right. Blends in Illustrator felt too airless and static and doing it in Photoshop—even with a pen—felt laborious and less fluid than it should. Procreate for the iPad Pro changed all that. Im now able to play wannabe Shusei Nagaoka with ease.
This poster is for a birthday show in Dallas for a friend I've done lots of posters for in the past, when he ran booking and promotion at Dallas' Granada Theater. In the past decade-plus I've gotten to do work for Foals, Cut Copy, The Walkmen and more through him. He requested a luchadore riding a winged lion in the sky and that's just what he got. In glorious glossy airbrush style!
