Brandon Boyd

Joses Pasillas

who?

He's the singer for Incubus

good lord. no.

i really love the patti smith drawings.

while i was reading the previous pages i thought of some people, but now i forget.

And whats the problem now, Cantankerous?

incubus.

those incubus guys sure rip off a lot of anime.

This thread is not about Incubus. It's musicians artwork. But even if it were, it'd still be a good thread.

Them 'Incubus guys' are fucking talented.

i'm also a fan of nate young's art

nate young!

exactly

I like the album covers too, especially these three...

I can't find anything by Ian McCullough. I think he does a wide variety of styles. I remember seeing a couple in an art magazine several years ago that were good.

There were a few Kurt Cobain drawings published in Rolling Stone that were really like a Basquiat-type of style, but I can't locate those on the netknob either.

John Lennon

Julian Lennon






Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

(I think he was a kid when he did it.)

Yoko Ono

Art was actually Lennon's first love. He began drawing long before he had a guitar. He attended the prestigious Liverpool Art Institute for three years (1957-1960) before the Beatles became a full-time occupation. He continued to draw throughout his life. Johns primary medium was line drawing either in pen, pencil, or Japanese sumi ink. His drawings became illustrations for three best selling books that he wrote in the 60's. In addition, a complete suite of the "Bag One" portfolio of lithographs is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His original drawings are also being collected by museums throughout the world.

Paul McCartney
















My aunt bought me his book of paintings for Christmas a few years back.


You can look at more of Jad Fair's stuff here at his site http://www.jadfair.org/

I'd never seen any of McCartney's paintings. I like them.

Some are really good and some are so so.....those were 4 of my favorites.


Anybody else notice all the Matisse influence in Daniel Johnston's figures?

for some reason i am seriously seeing george washington in the second one.

Lou Reed

Lou Reed was part of (Kim and Thurston also had pieces) a "Funhouse" art show in Detroit when The Stooges got back together for the tour.

A lot of people rip off anime. It's such an overused (and overrated) style.

Marvelous display of sense and good taste, thank you.

people tend overlook the fact that japanese cartoons, in a lot of cases, are good because of engaging, well-thoughtout stories paired with awesome drawing and design...it's not just big eyed and pointy drawings.

You don't even know if them dudes are fans of anime. That's speculation. There is significant differences. Nonetheless, they're still awesome works. I personally am not a fan of anime.

who ever question if they were fans or not? for all i know, they could be idiots who search for images in google and base themselves on those to make their own shit or be hardcore manga collectors. in one hand, there's nothing wrong with liking an aesthetic of something alone, but on the other hand, all i stated was that they ripped off anime's style like many others do. i made a general statement about people paying more attention to the look of japanese cartoons alone instead of really looking into the whole package, but fuck if i care.

for someone who doesn't like anime, you show a lot of enthusiasm for anime-inspired art.

i hate those covers, you might as well post this one:

Again, you don't know if they were inspired by anime, let alone 'rip it off'. Pasillas' work is very 'anime', but I wouldn't give that title to Boyds work. Both talented guys nonetheless.

boyd's stuff is also anime with a little graffiti/urban thrown in there.

Norma,
Every-N,

We're forgetting the most important thing.

Incubus are terrible.

BYE.
