Archer, your 100% right, and thats the best challenge. Coming up with something the imagery that fits the band is always more rewarding. you take inspiration from a lyric or a song title, or just how the music makes you feel. and to me the typography is just as much of the art as the poster itself.

but its understandable that people who may not be into a certain band, or don’t know there music but still enjoy the art and aesthetic of a screen printed poster would want art prints.

plus creating/printing posters is funnnnnn

thanks for the support everyone

I don’t understand exactly…isn’t part of this art process trying to create an image that fits the band in some way? Maybe I’m alone here, but making the poster for a band just seems to challenge an artist in a different way than an art print alone and the results, especially to a fan of the band, can be that much more rewarding.

Thank you everyone for all your nice comments.

Tool, im glad u enjoy the prints, and im sorry about the band names being on them. However, you are not the first person to tell us this, so our next run of prints is probably going to be full of art prints, so be sure to keep your eyes open for that.

I really like a couple of these. However, the band names on them just kinda kills it for me. I’m glad they’re gettin’ their paid on from the bands so they are able to do this work, but I just can’t buy a print with the name of a band on it – whether I’m a fan or not, really.
Good work, though, for sure! (I especially like the one with the owl)

THIS is how it’s done. Awesome art, printed by hand.
This is exactly how folks can start to build a great art collection at an affordable price.
Nice Job!
