fresh from my pencil - flyer design

so i met a very nice guy named johnny o'donnell while hanging my prints up for the la record xmas party. he liked the work and even bought a hunter s. thompson print as i was putting them on the wall. very cool. so he asked if i would be interested in doing an illustration of his band. i said yes, of course. that one is in the works, but in the meantime he asked if i could do up a flyer for their upcoming show. and here it is.

LA RECORD x-mas party / art show '09

(prints still available. if interested in purchasing, please contact.) got a pretty decent response given the crowd and incredible distractions (most were of a liquid form.) here's a few pics after install and of the evening.
