Ohbijou! Pigeon John! Cracker! POSTER MARATHON!!

I was a bit pressed for time. My misson was that I needed to do  2.5 posters in one day!
Reason is that I say two point five is that I had been taking my time doing a poster for the band Cracker before I did a bunch of new shows (that I will be posting about soon).  Then wednesday morning, I woke up to the email that the Biltmore had something happen and they wanted to know if I could turn around two posters by that friday. Me, being the type never to turn down a job, told them I would have the poster done by thursday that next day since I would be playing on friday and saturday night. that day I asked for the day off and lucky I got it. the next day i pushed hard and got them done.

so these next few posters i think should be posted together.

Ohbijou

this one was the first that i had done. it was admittedly quickly done. the promo photography was them all in winter coats or sitting indoors so i thought to go bright. the background would work like a kind of disruption to make the whites more prominant.
Biltmore wanted it changed to be more easly read and they werent buying the wintercoat excuse so i changed it

here is a video

Pigeon John

here is a video

Cracker

remember that song low from these guys from the 90′s?

I had fun doing this one. got kinda into the plaid.

here is their song “low”. see its not a Tom Petty song :P

Charles Demers

Here is an illustration I have done of Charles Demers for the up coming issue of OCW Magazine

Charles Demers was born and raised in Vancouver. He is an activist and comedian, a regular performer on CBC Radio One’s The Debaters, and co-host of Citytv’s comedic panel show The Citynews List in Vancouver.

He’s a funny guy and he has a new book out called Vancouver Special that is super neat.

Check it out if you are a local Vancouverite or if want to have a real clear sense of Vancouver.
