Girl School

So this is a little painting I did inside of a kid's book of 80's hair metal band, Britny Fox. I've developed a taste for painting 80's pop culture figures in white, green, pink, black and orange.

U.F.O

So this is my version of people rushing to see an unidentified flying object, I wanted to show that in different time periods different things could be considered a UFO. I've never seen a zeppelin in my life, and I would imagine around 1920 when they were first showing up when we didn't have the internet to tell us about something the second it exists, that seeing a zeppelin would be like an act of god.

Hanging With Friends...


Hey, so I'm Michael. I'm in the final semester of my BFA in illustration right now and tend to approach my work in two different ways. Creating a nostalgic narrative or using humor in the work. I think a good illustration should create a story in your mind as soon as you see it. The work above was for an assignment to illustrate the phrase "hanging with friends". I wanted a rustic sketchbook feel to it and hopefully present a different take on what the phrase could mean, so ya.
