The Gamehendge Series

I recently finished up my illustrations of the Gamehendge series.  I initially started this project in June of 2013, but after doing 4 illustrations, I put the idea aside as I worked on other things.  I finally got to finish this series when I was recently commissioned to illustrate all the songs for a book they wanted to make for their niece.  In the end I ended up drawing all the other songs that take place pre/post TMWSIY, or pertain to Gamehendge in one way or another (some can be debatable).  I did about 20 6×8 ink and watercolor illustrations total.

The Man Who Stepped Into Yesterday

"..he knew it had always been there, and felt foolish for overlooking the door for so long." -TMWSIY
“..he knew it had always been there, and felt foolish for overlooking the door for so long.” -TMWSIY

The Lizards

"He said that we could swim it if we tried"
“He said that we could swim it if we tried”

Tela

"Tela, jewel of Wilson's foul domain"
“Tela, jewel of Wilson’s foul domain”

Wilson

"Can you still have fun?"
“Can you still have fun?”

AC/DC Bag

"Brain dead and made of money"
“Brain dead and made of money”

Colonel Forbin’s Ascent

"And he climbed so slowly"
“And he climbed so slowly”

Fly Famous Mockingbird

The Sloth

8sloth
“Italian spaghetti, singing falsetto”

Possum

"The road was his end"
“The road was his end”

I will be releasing prints soon, and maybe a poster.  The images will also be used in this tour’s illustrated setlists.  I’m working transitioning to all ink and watercolor (Ive got about 40 songs already illustrated).  I’ll also have work at the PhanArt Show during the Mann run (August 12) at the World Live Cafe, so come by and check it out before the show
