Mexicali Blues – private commission

Feliz Dia De Los Muertos! 25 copies of the regular edition are up today.

This is a blind buy. You will get 1 color variant signed and numbered to 20 copies. Random orders will receive a foil variant. The picture here shows the backside of the prints revealing the possible paper colors and edition name. Each edition has its own name based on a Grateful Dead song title! You can expect the coloring on the face and flecks in the flowers to change based on the paper stock. The pics I’ve attached here show the main edition on pearlescent paper.

My friend Seth approached me about working on a private commission last year. The idea was that a variety of artists (Dan Black and Zeb Love thus far) would create an original piece of art loosely based on Grateful Dead lyrics. Seth actually came to me with the idea of illustrating the track Mexicali Blues with Day of the Dead style imagery. This one is 14 colors and features some of my best floral work to date.
