Streets Love Us
Description:
Streets Love Us, a motorcycle lifestyle brand, hired me to create this t-shirt illustration to sell at conventions and promote their products.
We created this crazy scene with a beat cop chasing after the rider, some punks, a crazed cat, and a CHUD coming out of the sewers as the bike tears up the asphalt.
Crazy cat I drew for a t-shirt design for Streets Love Us, a motorcycle lifestyle brand – The client really let me have a lot of fun and freedom with this one creating a chaotic scene. Inked in Clip Studio Paint, I’ll share the finished design tomorrow!….#motorcycleart #appareldesign #tshirtdesign #tshirtartist #screenprintart #dtg#art #originalartwork #mangastudio #clipstudiopaint #illustration #hireanillustrator #freelanceartist #wacomcintiq
Kjakan Russ Logo
Design featuring the most decorated norwegian soldier in history. The design was for apparel and a vehicle wrap for the russefeiring tradition. If you haven’t heard of it, basically russefeiring involves an entire class of Norwegian students renting a bus (a Russebuss), painting every inch of it with really cool street art, and then partying in it night and day for an entire month during graduation. The different classes wear their designs ever where they go as they clash with rival classes. I’ve done a bunch of these now, and really enjoy it.

Nearly a year has passed since I was hired to create the concept art for Gritty, the Philadelphia Flyers Mascot. Hard to believe! I forgot to share this: Photographer Noah Friedman was kind enough to interview me and take a series of portraits. All of them were great (considering what he had to work with!), but I thought this one captured my personality perfectly. You can see the rest of the photos, and listen to the interview about the creation of Gritty here:‍http://www.noahfriedmanstudio.com/f2pod/2019/3/3/brian-illustrator-and-mascot-designer‍#gritty #nhl #grittynhl #conceptart #mascot #mascotdesign #freelanceartist
