GIJOE Eco Warriors Poster



When I was a kid, GIJOE meant neon colors! I have fond memories of my dad buying me GIJOES from the Eco Warriors toy line. I channeled those memories recently and drew all the eco warrior figures as mutated versions of themselves. I drew each separately on 8x11 card stock paper, then fused them together into a larger 18x24 poster. Each weekend I've done a little bit of work on the poster. It took about a month to finish the coloring. 











Black Book comic collaboration



I was hit up by a Twitter buddy nicknamed Cujo to participate in a neat comic collaboration. 
He and other artists that are fans of the Gijoe universe are contributing to a trippy #BlackBookComic  that uses the Joe universe to tell a far out esoteric story. Here's my contribution to the project!

Kenner Beetlejuice Poster



I spent the July 4th weekend polishing up this 18x24 poster illustrating Kenner's Beetlejuice toy line. 
I love how this thing came out! If anyone's interested in a poster of it, DM or email us at prettyweirdart@gmail.com.

Geek Wars Posters by Pretty Weird Art






Here's a deep dive into the Pretty Weird Art Archive!
Circa 2012-2013 I made fake fight posters as a way to improve my graphic design and drawing skills. I'd post them on Facebook and I had a buddy that would comment on who would win the fight. 
He'd also make suggestions on what the next poster should be and give me "homework assignments" to work for the following week. It was a fun little exercise.

Pretty Weird Art: 18x24 Posters: part 1


I found a flash drive with all of my artwork from the last 8 years on it. I'm slowly going through it bit by bit just for fun. At some point about 5 years ago, I made my first 18x24 sized poster and fell in love with that size. Most artists seem to gravitate to printing 11x17 but I personally hate that size. The bigger the better is what I say. 18x24 is my go to working size for art projects.
