Rock Idols Print

Hello everyone! Here's a print I did a few weeks back. I wanted to do something based on the concept of idolizing rock stars. The middle part is a few sheets of mylar I printed on, and the "frame" portion is regular paper. I love music history, so this was super fun to draw. I feel like the design and color choice could have been a lot better, but hey. Clockwise from the top, it's John Lennon, Jim Morrison, Bob Dylan, Sid Vicious, Nancy Spungen, David Bowie as a sphinx and Ziggy Stardust, Jimi Hendrix, Iggy Pop, Elvis Presley, and Kurt Cobain.



And details of my favorite parts, Iggy Pop and Sid Vicious:

Cardboard Paintings

Cardboard paintings! The thing I love about cardboard is it's free, it's everywhere, it's semi sturdy, and it's super fun to paint on. Here are some of my cardboard creations:

This one's a collage; I live in Athens, GA, and there are always lots of band posters lying around. It's kind of like a scavenger hunt to go around and find cool band posters (ones the show has already passed for, of course...) and then make a collage with those images as well as paint and whatever else you have lying around.

Here are a couple that were on my dorm room door last year. After a long, spiritually enlightening Bowie binge, I did the "David Bowie in heaven" one, and it was decided that if I was going to have a heavenly Bowie, I needed a devilish Sid Vicious to be his counterpart:




Maybe at some point I'll upload some more...but everybody should get out there, find some cardboard, and get going!
