For a little while now I’ve been curious about combining illustration with CMYK photographs and then mashing it all together into a screenprint. Would it work? What would it look like? This more unconventional process felt like the perfect approach to match the chaotic/euphoric/experimental energy of Dan’s music and live shows.
Took a long bike ride around Baltimore, photographed all the landmarks, did some Photoshop CMYK halftone magic, combined it with some illustrations, and put it to press. The finished result is what I (personally) believe to be one of the weirdest, most different pieces I’ve ever done… I love it.
The artistic journey is so sick because you can spend a third of your life trying to get really really good at one particular style, but then decide that you just want to swing the pendulum in a totally different direction.
THANK YOU ALL
THANK YOU DAN
