Bob Marley

Reggae, most people think it's about smoking weed and listening to music. No! Actually it's songs that make everyone wanna sing, dance and unite no matter what race or where you are from. Robert Nesta Marley aka "Bob Marley made powerful music that spoke about love, peace, freedom, unity, respect and joy is what brings us together with the powerful message behind his music. I did this typographic poster in dedication of the legendary reggae artist Bob Marley.  It's an 8.5 x 11 inch poster which has Bob's redemption song lyrics creating Bob Marley's typographic portrait. Rate & comment, this is another great addition to my personal graphic design portfolio.

>Also below is a video of Bob Marley's Movie preview out this year 2012! Finally a movie about the legendary reggae king. I can't wait to see this. Out in theaters, on this legendary date: April 20, 2012.

Design for Rebelution

This blog is about the past contest I entered for Rebelution's Tee shirt contest. In this illustration I did a thinkin' green owl, something similar to the Bassnectar owl I did for Bassnectar's NYE poster. This owl is meditating over the skies holding a peace sign, resembling peace, harmony, and tranquility. I did my best, but unfortunately I did not win. It's okay though, win or lose, contests like this brings the best out of me and make me better as a designer.

Here is the illustration I did; 8.5 x 11 inches, done in Adobe CS5 Illustrator. To see the winners to this contest, click this link: http://www.talenthouse.com/creativeinvites/show/winners/357

Also here is a song from Rebelution's Peace of Mind 3 Disk Album, "Closer I Get (Acoustic Version)" Very great reggae band, especially when you see them live in Concert ;)

It's been awhile that I have been posting stuff..

I did my own version of designing Tribal Seeds' new EP CD cover. I took the
time to make it better than the original. Not only I did it because it's for a
project, I did it because I am a HUGE fan of Tribal Seeds and all kinds
of reggae artist/ bands. Please send me some feed back on what any of
you guys, much be appreciated.

*Below CD Cover design  is a youtube video
of "Tribal Seeds- In Your Eyes" a track
from the Sound Waves EP which shows
the original artwork for their CD cover.
