From my other blog
The process of making these is:
Collect comics and beer labels, put the beer label on a piece of paper. (Peel it off while can is full)
Find comics and beer labels with similar themes or colors. This takes a while and involves comic book shopping.
Cut out comics into fun shapes.
To put it together I drink a ton of beer with my wife and sister listen to classic rock and do blow. It makes it a fun process and seems to dial in the art itself. Outlaw country!!!
We’re snowed-in here in Baltimore, and it’s making me miss warmer weather, green things, flora...
So here is a beer label I designed and illustrated for Union Craft Brewing’s special spring-time saison that they crafted exclusively for Atomic Books in Hampden. A wonderful pairing of comics “for mutated minds” and a light, fruity ale.
I've always wanted to illustrate beer and wine labels and this was a really fun way to dip my toe in. I hope I get the chance to do more!
