as mentioned in my previous post, this is my second year working with capsule arts on a new series of prints to be sold on their website. for these prints, i decided to do something completely fresh & add a touch of color!
my new illustrations, titled 'a krossbreed fantasy', play with the notion of defining what the term 'krossbreed' means. starting with collaged sketches of strange, hybrid creatures made from parts of animals/humans/plants, to later adding bold patterns & color, the final illustrations you see above are an exploration of defining the meaning of being a product of local and outside influences & inspirations - kind of like me!
these illustrations are only beginnings of a project i'd like to further develop, hopefully creating new visuals and graphics for t-shirts & apparel, to be launched in 2015. so definitely stay tuned...
if you'd like to purchase any of these prints, or prints from my previous collection with capsule arts, make sure to head to my page on their site. also, make sure to browse the other artists featured. there is a lot of great stuff!
to compliment my post, i leave you with a little feature about me on capsule arts' blog where is my shark?

lastly, i would also like to point out that these illustrations are titled after a side project i try to keep up; a tumblr page where i share my favorite moments in music. here's akrossbreedfantasy.tumblr.com enjoy!
