It’s like a commission, but I’m giving you more control.

I’ve always thought the soundtrack in my studio was crucial. I listened to Coldplay’s A Head Full of Dreams album so many times that it became its own series.

Now I’m giving you control of my playlist, and, if you like the outcome, a new piece of art for yourself or a loved one (holiday gift, anyone?).

These little monotypes capture the moment of a song. I have to work fast before the ink dries on my plexiglass plate. It’s a gut reaction that can only exist once. In other words, it’s an edition of one, one-of-a-kind, cannot be reproduced image.

The process

1. Think of your Song + Color request. (keep in mind I’ll interpret your color as my inks allow)
2. Send me your assignment for $5.
3. I’ll confirm I found the right song (Wagon Wheel only has one true artist in my opinion). Then I’ll listen to it twice: once to prepare the color, and a second time to make an abstract monotype.
4. I’ll show you a picture of the finished piece.
5. You decide if you like it! If it’s not your jam, no hard feelings. If it is, I’ll mat it in archival board cut for a 5×7″ frame for $30.

Details

• approximate image dimensions: 2.75×3.75″ – the perfect little moment for a 5×7″ frame
• all monotypes will be printed on off-white Arches fine paper and matted in off-white Canson board
• need me to find a frame? I’ll see what I can do!
• shipping? Yes, I’m happy to do that. I’ll add on the cost.
• if it’s not for you, it’s all mine
