Bandit Brown

My third illustration for City Star Brewing, in Berthoud Colorado is for Bandit Brown English Brown Ale . This particular brew has won four major gold medals and I can only hope that the art can live up to this already prestigious brew. Whitney and John note that their building had been won in card games at least twice in it's illustrious history so the playing card in the shifty bandit's hat reflects this tidbit while the bowler hat is a nod to the brew's English origins. They also told me that trains are a major part of their town's history so, of course, I jumped at the chance to illustrate an old western locomotive.
