It’s been a long time coming, but after about a year of freelance work, NO THEFT has finally got his portfolio up!!! It’s still in it’s first phase, with more artwork on posters, shirts, albums, and logos on the way. He continually amazes me and ups his game each and every time. He work is so clean and esthetically sound and it’s been a real honor and pleasure to work with him. Please check out his site www.notheftdom.com and don’t hesitate to contact him if you need any work done!

Keep up the great work brother! Also, if you want to follow him on Twitter, he’s at www.twitter.com/NOTHEFT

Jerod Gibson adds one more element by putting memorable quotes within the artwork from each movie. If you’ve seen any of these movies, you’ll recognize each icon and the quotes are sure to make you remember what made these films so great.

Want to see more?
I emailed Jerod asking where his posters can be purchased and he kindly responded letting me know that eventually, he does plan to sell direct, but for right now, you can buy these through a site called Society 6. I put the link at the bottom of this post. Jerod has many other works and some of it has been picked up by Urban Outfitters and Threadless. Keep up the great work Jerod. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next!

I’m really impressed by this kids niche in the poster scene. Bringing hand drawn illustrations to the poster scene requires great vision and dedication. His color choices are super fresh as well and his use of texture makes things really pop. Follow John, he’s prolific in his quality and output. John draws everything up and screen prints it all himself.  Make sure to spend time at his SITE as well at his Etsy shop, I sure am.

Postcarden? Half postcard, half garden. Awesome. When I first came across these, I found out they are a company based in London and that buying one would be difficult because of seeds having to go through customs. Just recently they were added to a store called Brooklyn5and10 and they sell for $12.95. They have 3 designs: Botanical Garden, Green City, and Backyard Garden.

I’ve been in contact with Brooklyn5and10, so stay tuned for a chance to win one!

From Oct. 08 – Oct. 09 Andy drew a DUDE a day. Some are very familiar and capture some key persona’s. The Life Aquatic/O Brother ones are my personal favorites. See more of Andy’s work HERE
