Poster for AC/DC concert.

The final poster. 31"x48"!
The sketch.
The finished illustration.

I got an assignment last week to produce an illustration for a poster of one of my favorite bands, AC/DC, to commemorate their upcoming sold-out concert here in Nashville. When I think of AC/DC visually, I think of the incredible, diminutive guitar god, Angus Young in his school boy shorts, and the gruff blue-collar toughness of singer Brian Johnson in his ever present hat. The assignment was to make it uniquely Nashville, so I put in a few of the architectural icons of downtown Nashville.

Seems like a good day for a re-run.

This image was my first post on Illustration Friday, for the word "Poof!" Seems like a good day to dust it off, and show it again. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! A labor of love.

The illustrator began to feel pale as the representative from Illustration Friday approached, knowing that he was about to be confronted over the posting of irrelevant images.

Question: What's funnier than a fez?


Answer: Nothing.

It's been awhile since I've posted images from my sketchbook of obituary drawings. So I present to you here Wilson and Deacon Elijah.

Note to self: Schedule appointment with photographer to get picture taken wearing a fez for the amazement of the readers of my obituary, hopefully many years from now.

Illustration Friday: Contained

When he reached the mountaintop, Moses found a jar that contained ten pretty good ideas. Even though the jar had been cleaned, Moses could still detect a faint smell of pickles. Nonetheless, Moses wrote down the ideas thinking they might be good to refer to at a later date. Ideas such as: Never sneak into the movies.

Illustration Friday: Resolve

I was hoping this came in a pill. But a bottle will have to do. Good luck with all that!
