Ghost Town Ale








Same idea as Calico Jack’s Darke Rum, illustrate a fake product you’d love to see manifest into real work. I can’t stress enough the importance of this advice for budding artist...create fake products you’d love, the real ones will come later. This time I went with a wild western feel, after all, I was newly transplanted to the Pacific Northwest...and while not exactly shootout at high-noon country, it still felt wilder than Massachusetts. I particularly like the hanged man in the background and this marks the only painting to date with an oval shape and an upside-down artist’s signature.

Measures 16" x 20"
