A commissioned piece for Hard Rock Cafe. The client said they were "on the money" but I have no official word if they were accepted. We got paid per submittal on it.
This was for a theme called "Rocklimation" which a bunch of trendy keywords were written as the design brief such as "skulls, heraldry, paper clips, crowns, etc" And they referenced artists such as Sid Vicious and Blondie for part of the vibe.

Yeah I can see that, being down under the design and not really integrated at all. Good point.

They asked for paper clips and they got them. I love the bird holding one of them.

rad, what is that in the background, is that snakeskin?
dsprad said 7 months ago
The fact that you took some pretty generic elements and arranged them in a manner so that the design itself has an original feel is great. Good stuff, Jeff.

hey everyone since jeff pwned with this design can we retire the pastel greens, violets and blues, ya know, for at least a week or so.

saftey pins not paperclips that's right. Paperclips are not punk at all what was I thinking!
