Dave Matthews Band 1 24 x 35 – 6

24 x 35 – 6 color silkscreen – S/N edition of 150 (variant with blue inks to 50) - I approached Mondo about doing a print for The Fountain about a year ago but the timing wasn't right and my idea was just too big in retrospect

I combined elements of beauty and danger and gave the image a hypnotic rhythm

NOTES: 24 x 18 inches /// 4 screens /// signed and numbered artist edition of 300 /// numbers 121-300 sold at show /// September 24

This one was originally used for a Jimmy Eat World print from early 2005

There's some Japanese influence in the style and of course Chuck Sperry's radiant figures

Dave Matthews Band 1 24 x 35 – 6I submitted a number of sketches to mgmt and we settled on this one. My thinking relates to the title of Dave's most recent album "away from the world" and the idea that artists often seek isolation from the rest of the world. The idea of a victorian style house floating on a iceberg had some weight to it and possibly summed up the idea Dave was going for. I associate this style of home with Dave's neck of the woods; it's distinctly east coast.
