@thehives ERAS TOUR 🕰️ Inspired by the title of their new album THE HIVES FOREVER FOREVER THE HIVES, I took a quick trip down memory lane and pulled some moments from over the years where I was fortunate enough to be tagging along 🖤❤️🔥🤍 ALWAYS a pleasure, gentlemen! ALWAYS and FOREVER.
Single art and design for new @maroon5 single “Heroine”
1-2. The final product. After a handful of versions that didn’t hit, my direction became a “Kill Bill color scheme”, which immediately got me thinking about Uma’s “Bride” character and the Sergio Leone spaghetti western close-ups of her eyes.
3-4. Inspired by @ashworthchris work with dry-transfer Letraset sheets within his own artwork and for Raygun Magazine. Also a reason to do something physical with my hands and not on the computer. This is probably my favorite one but also ultimately might feel more like it should be for a song called “Heroin” than “Heroine”.
5-7. Something that looked better in my head than it did on paper and also another reason to create something I could hold and not stare at a screen. Medium - old record sleeve and Wylder’s paint supplies.
8-9. I’m always digging through old film I’ve shot searching for ways to give old photos new life. I wanted something that felt euphoric, like love, or dreamy.. but again, ultimately wanted to avoid any druggy metaphors.
10-11. A couple of alternates that include the band’s name and a couple more Kill Bill colors.
@maroon5 for @budweiser_br in São Paulo, Brazil ❤️🔥
Brazil holds a special place in my heart and the band’s and I always feel lucky to tag along with them 🙌
2025 💖 It only took me a month to find the energy to pummel past the ever-looming daily doom and dread we are currently living in and look back on all the beauty that 2025 had to offer.
If you were to ask me if 2025 was a wonderful year I’m honestly not sure if I would immediately have said that it was - Looking back on it now it’s a little embarrassing how wrong I’d be. Seeing the overwhelming abundance of love, joy and happiness, it’s causing me to question if I spend my time focusing on the right reality - the one directly in front of me - the one that I actually live inside of.
For 2026, here’s to zooming IN. Staying present. Limiting access. Living in the moment. Riding the sparks of joy. Also probably turning off news notifications and tuning in when I decide.
Sure there are always bad days & sad days among the best days & better days, but the goal will be to watch the s*** float away down the river - wave “bye-bye” and coast off on a belly full of warm 🤙✨✌️Cook more, listen to tapes and CDs, read books, buy magazines, eat your cereal with a fork and do your homework in the dark.
Thrilled to have been asked to document The Concert for Altadena ❤️ Wonderful humans coming together for an incredible cause 🙌 Over 450k raised for the Altadena Builds Back Foundation ❣️ A truly one of a kind evening ✨I think you can still catch the live stream on YouTube!
Convinced that if every man, woman and child experienced this @tameimpala Deadbeat Tour that the world would be a happier, better, more blissful place 💖 2 night super-fan spam post to get you there next time 🤯❤️🔥🤩✨
