I'm a few days late on this!! Happy 100th Birthday to #NOSFERATU!!! . Nosferatu premiered on March 4th, 1922 at the Berlin Zoological Garden, for a large society event - Das Fest des Nosferatu. The movie was directed by #FWMurnau & starred #MaxSchreck. . FUN FACT: The #BramStoker estate sued for copyright infringement & had all but a few copies of the film destroyed. Yet it survived & became part of the zeitgeist of horror films & pop culture. . If you couldn't tell I'm a BIG FAN of classic horror movies... . In 2014, I designed an art print of NOSFERATU for my solo show #SCREAMWITHME at @GalerieF. I drew NOS in profile with another drawing of his skeleton as a #glowinthedark layer. That was a lot of fun (and a lot of work)! Being someone who tries to use every part of the buffalo, I used the artwork for a patch, enamel pin (collab with @yesterdays.co), & a keychain! You can all that in my SHOP! . In 2019, I was commissioned by @kirkhammett and his management to create 2 posters for his #romitsalive at the @romtoronto in Canada! I knew NOS was a favorite of Kirk's so I pitched the vampire lurching over the #RoyalOntarioMuseum with a bunch of bats flying around. It worked! Kirk's social media dude asked if I knew the ROM had a permanent bat exhibit. No, I didn't. I was too dumb to lie. . @dj_jefecita and I got flown out to check out the exhibit and catch Hammett and Rob Trujilo's #theweddingband perform. Funny enough we ended up meeting the guys for breakfast while we were there. They also made ltd edition guitar picks with my art on them! SO CRAZY!!! . If you want to see the making of videos that @t_moorfilms made of me working on those posters - go here https://vimeo.com/350812432 . Last is the next piece I'm working on. It's just a sketch. I'm putting together a series of bat-related pieces for a new set of flash or if all else fails I can use it as another business card like the last post - done in the same style. . . . . . #screenprint #illustration #worldwired #detail #darkartist #design #theskullreserve #brianewing #brianewingfiendclub #illustration #kirkhammettfans #RobTrujilo #MetFamily #kirkhammett #CountOrlok #KirkVonHammett #fearfestevil (at Wisborg) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca2SlAHOPPA/?utm_medium=tumblr
