EARTHLING shirt design
Shirt design for EARTHLING, from Richmond, VA. I was commissioned for this piece by the bands current label FORCEFIELD records. Its always interesting to work for bands that i have never heard before but it makes it that much better when i am completely blown away upon hearing them for the first time. Check these guys out and make sure to get their awesome debut EP Dark Path, available here at Forcefield: http://www.forcefieldrecords.org/store/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=earthling&x=-328&y=-609

LOCUSTA back patch design
My first ever back patch design for LOCUSTA. When the band approached me about doing a back patch, not only was i excited to work on my first patch, but also to work on hand lettering an already beautiful logo by the ridiculously talented "Lord of the Logo's", Christophe Szpajdel. The patches should be available soon. For more information check out Locusta's facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Locusta614
