Here's the cover for new Solid State band, To Speak Of Wolves' debut release. Hands are still tough for me. I probably drew 15 pairs of hands before I felt like I got it right...

This little guy has been sitting around the shop for a few months without a home, so we decided to make it into an 8" x 8" print. Village Sunrise. Edition of 50.
Wake up! Our new poster for My Morning Jacket at the upcoming Sasquatch! Music Festival will be available soon.
We (like most of you) were on Team CoCo from the start. So when STG asked us if we'd like to create a poster for his upcoming "Legally Prohibited From Being Funny On Television" tour stop in Spokane, we knew exactly what we wanted to do. We'll have these available in a few weeks. In the meantime, follow Conan's Taurus, monkey and other related items on Twitter.
Here's a look at our poster for The National, who will be performing at this year's Sasquatch! Festival. These guys are a personal favorite of ours here at the office, and we anxiously await their new album later this year. Poster available soon-ish!
Well, today is the day. The lineup for the 2010 Sasquatch! Festival has been announced. As usual, the list of bands look amazing (Public Enemy, Massive Attack!). We also thought it would be a good time to show you the artwork. Summer is just around the corner ...
We were asked to contribute to a poster project benefitting the victims of Haiti's catastrophic earthquake. We feel honored to help in any way possible. Here's a look at our contribution, which will be available here in the near future.
We received a pretty fun gift from our pal Aaron Horkey today. In fact, it was so fun - I had to show you some of the finer points. His incredible attention to detail and obvious pride in his craft is inspiring. Thanks for the love, sir.
Having a baby soon? Know someone who is? Forget the ultrasound, grab our new Gift Card and find out immediately what the sex will be. Contrary to what science may tell you, you now have a 25% chance of adding twins to your family. And it all wraps up nicely into a portable diaper. And yes, we apparently love making 'spinny' things for Target. Get yours here.
Can you tell we love our new printer? Two new prints added to the shop today. Isle Of This Town & The Lonely King are available for your Aunt Nadine's living room, right above the '76 Magnavox.
Grain Edit (Dave Cuzner and crew) have been very generous to us over the years - responsible for putting our work in front of many fresh faces. So when they asked if we'd like to create GE's first ever T-shirt design, we quickly obliged. As many of you know, Dave has quite the book collection (we've been known to collect a few over here as well), so the idea of a few critters lending an ear to a story about our favorite blog seemed quite fitting. And with today's announcement from The Times, the story seems that much sweeter.
'Time Will Tell' and 'Prized Possessions' are now (finally) available exclusively through Velocity! Each print is a whopping 17" x 22" (with a 1" border for framing) and is printed on beautiful German Etching Hahnenmühle Fine Art paper. Hand signed, limited edition run of 50.
We're extremely honored to be part of Grain Edit's Holiday Giveway Bash! featuring incredible art and collectibles from peers, friends and heroes. We're donating two 16" x 16" Giclee prints as well as our new Winter Fishing Hole! Gift Card from Target loaded with $25 to buy your uncle that Die Hard DVD he's been wanting or the ear muffs your dog has been hinting at. If we could enter, we would! Winners announced December 18th.
I gotta be honest, apparently I've been living under a gigantic rock and hadn't heard of the awesome NOTCOT until today when they posted a really cool write-up titled Art Of The Gift Card showcasing some of the new holiday Gift Cards at Target. They even went above and beyond and devoted a special something to our 'Winter Fishing Hole' Gift Card/Game. We've actually been getting reports that they are selling out at stores (that's a good thing, right?) but you can find them online through 12/31.
Oh, and yes I'm multi-tasking by kicking myself while adding the NOTCOT RSS feed to my daily visits.
The holidays at Target are always fun. So, naturally we were pretty excited (okay, thrilled) when they asked us to create a board game for one of their charming holiday Gift Cards. Our Winter Fishing Hole! Game is in stores and online now until the new year. 1 - 4 players. Spin The Fish!
Well, 'All Hallows Eve' is right around the corner - which is perfect timing seeing as we've just wrapped up our 'Halloween Thingamajig' art for this year's bash at Target House. Hope the kids have fun.
We thought it might be fun to show you our last 3 Wired editorial pieces ... as well as their extremely humble beginnings. Some artists spend a great deal of time getting their sketches just right in order to save time on the final piece - concentrating on small details at the end, and in turn wrapping it up quicker. Us? Well, our early conceptual stages involve paper, pencil, a scanner and around 2 minutes. Our goal is to quickly convey our thoughts on composition, perspective and balance. Then of course we anxiously wait for the fun part to happen after our editor says "Go!"
All illustrations are featured in the 'TEST: Burning Question' section each month.
