NICK CAVE TOUR POSTER 2017 18”x24" • Screen Print . HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!! I’m a few days late on posting this. 9/22/22 was @nickcaveofficial 's birthday! In 2017, their management hit me up to design the tour poster. It was only available to the people that bought the VIP package - which also included a ticket to the show and a laminate with my work on it!!! Which I never got...grumblegrumble . This was a HUGE project for me. I LOOOOOOOOOOVE #NICKCAVE ’s music!! LOVE! So to get a chance to design a poster again for him was an honor. Even better - it was for the whole tour! In 2014 I got to design the poster for their Milwaukee, WI show! . If you scroll through - you can see the photo reference I took of my homie @a.sinners.heart posing as Nick Cave’s stunt double. He was in town when I started working on the project. . From there I sketched everything out in my sketchbook with a @prismacolor #colerase pencil. I had a small meltdown until my homie @dave_crosland talked me down from the ledge and helped me make sense of my composition. Then I lightboxed it onto an 8.5 x 11 sheet of #bristolboard and inked it with a @winsorandnewton series 7 sable brush. Then scanned it in at 600 dpi and did the coloring & color seps in photoshop! . Oh included is the alternate sketch I submitted but they felt the portrait of Cave was a better fit. NEVER THROW AWAY YOUR SKETCHES! I ended up using this for the @themurdercitydevils poster a few months later. WIN/WIN! And there's a pic of the art print I designed that was included with the 2017 tour poster drop - exclusive from my shop. . I was lucky enough to see the first date of the show with my best homie and amazing animator @crankbunny at the @kingsbklyn Such a beautiful theatre!!! Such a great show!!! . . . . . #illustration #detail #brutsubmission #design #darkart #nickcaveandthebadseeds #sketch #sketching #inking #nickcaveandthebadseeds ##nickcaveandthebadseedstour2017 #pushtheskyaway #deanna #lovelycreatures #crowjane #boatmanscall #letlovein #murderballads #janglingjack #strangerthankindness #detail #brianewing https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci5AgrOuwqr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Into My Arms

A really beautiful song, it has one of the best opening lines to a song ever. “ I don’t believe in an interventionist God, but I know, darling, that you do. But if I did I would kneel down and ask him not to intervene when it came to you”. It has such powerful and romantic notations and I love how moving Nick’s lyrics are. I can’t wait to hear it live because it just sounds amazing. He’s a genius, Nick Cave.

Day 10 "Flowing" of Blood into Nick Cave's Music. (Originally was going to slit his wrists for this, because of how much of his own blood he spends on his music.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Lime Tree Arbour

A few years ago I met Nick Cave for a short moment. There was a slight magic in the room :-) Goodnight everyone!

Here’s the sketch for the @nickcaveofficial VIP tour poster. They were only available by purchasing the VIP package. I’ll have my ARTIST COPIES available on my site SOON. Since i’ll only have a few… I’m making them available to my newsletter subscribers first - as a thank you for all the support. So yeah… ***Sign up for my newsletter at brianewing.com *** When the management and promoter contacted me they were specific that I don’t draw anything too dark. Considering what has been going on with Cave’s personal life - I understood. I wanted to distance myself from the #anatomical style I had been running with for the past few years - which I used on the 2014 poster I did for the band. That stuff is too dark. Plus, with all of the tattooing I’ve been doing, I wanted to show people (aka prove to myself and my #selfdoubt) that I can draw. The management asked me to write my ideas instead of sketch them and they would then pick the idea they liked best. That was actually fun. Some of the ideas that didn’t get chosen were used for other posters (or will be soon.) #neverthrowawayyoursketches We narrowed it down to a few ideas and then finally they went with #NickCave pounding away at a typewriter as if he were playing a piano. Since he’s an author and a musician it made sense to me. Happy that they liked the idea. I don’t do likenesses too often so I’m very happy that I nailed it right away. My good buddy Brandon @a.sinners.heart was in town so I recruited him to pose as the rest of Cave. He’s tall and gangly too! For better or worse, I work mostly in my sketchbook before transferring the drawing to bristol board. I’m clumsy and I’ll lose anything that isn’t chained to a cinder block - so that’s why I like working in a #sketchbook. #MichaelKaluta once wrote a great essay on why sketchbooks are important. You should look it up! #illustration #detail #nocureuncover #brutsubmission #design #darkart #colerasepencil #sketch #sketching #inking #nickcaveandthebadseeds ##nickcaveandthebadseedstour2017 #pushtheskyaway #deanna #lovelycreatures #crowjane #boatmanscall #letlovein #murderballads #janglingjack #goesyackityyack

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds 18x24 #screenprint More info here http://bodega.brianewing.com/nick-cave-and-the-bad-seeds/ Because I’m a dork - I made a video to show off how the art changes depending on which angle you view it at. https://goo.gl/eHuv4o Forgot to post this earlier. #NightoftheHunter has always been one of my favorite movies. And I felt that the #RobertMitchum character could’ve doubled as a character in one of Cave’s songs. I’m going to be releasing the new #NickCaveandtheBadSeeds soon. I’ll only have a few copies. #thermightbeafoilvariant Sign up for my newsletter at brianewing.com It will be available to those people first! #yasnoozeyalose **MY BOOKS ARE OPEN FOR THE NEXT WEEK!** **If you wanna get #tattooed - drop by the shop to schedule something with me or hit me up via email Brian(at)brianewing.com** I’ve been a #tattooapprentice with the #StanGetzloftattoomentors @hollow_moon #MikeMoses for the past year and #tattooing for a few months now at #CauldronTattoo @cauldron_tattoo Listening to lots of #DIRTYHEADS right now and reading lots of #WalkingDead comics!

Far From Me

Love this song off the Boatman’s Call, it’s an album full of heartbreak and emotion and Cave pulls it off so well.You can tell it’s what he’s been through himself and It’s a song which shows this release. A song which shows hurting at how they’ve been left and treated, “Did you ever care for me?” It has this hurting throughout, with an amazing backing track(love the bassline), recommend it definitely.

Yep... Last night @nickcaveofficial with @crankbunny #biggienorms #normita Big thanks to Derek for hooking it uuuuup! So stoked! 4th time seeing #NickCave throughout the years.

Here are the inks for the NICK CAVE VIP #tourposter http://bodega.brianewing.com/nick-cave-the-bad-seeds-regular/ If you swipe right you can see a quick evolution from the pencils to inks. That’s my drawing process for posters. I also posted the original inks for the #NICKCAVE poster from 2014 You can see the difference in size. I used to work at 11x17 because that’s how it was normally done in the comic book industry. A few years back I got hit with a project that had a short deadline so I decided to cut the image size in half to save time. Since then I’ve tried to work at that size. Less stressful for me. Less nights of me with my head in my hands wishing I hadn’t pursued a career in art! Yet somehow the #selfdoubt didn’t get cut in half. Oy vey… You can see a bigger version of those inks here http://bodega.brianewing.com/nick-cave-original-art/ THANKS to EVERYONE that picked up the #nickcaveandthebadseeds VIP tour poster. The #FOIL variant is sold out! THANK YOU! Again MUCHAS GRACIAS to all the people that help spread the word and reblogged/reposted the print! It’s not easy when competing with so many rad artists out there. So HEY… Would you guys be willing to wait a few more weeks for your order if I decided to come up with a new piece of art and make a print exclusive to the NC poster and tipped it in with your order? Let me know. It’s something that I want to do but I also don’t want to piss anyone off if they’re expecting their order to ship already.
