A to Z of Rock N Roll


I created last years Inpress's A-Z of Rock n' Roll. Working at a 'rock mag' most of the ideas of how to portray rock are pretty exhausted. I went for a leather jacket. It's pretty rock right? It meant that I got to put DRI, Bad Brains and Descendants badges on it. Self indulgence is fun.

Another Inpress Cover Gallery






A bunch of Inpress covers from the end of last year. The Panics one is a shot by Andrew Boyle. He's moved to NY, so he doesn't shoot for us as much as he used too, although he does shoot covers over whenever we can hook it up.

Some Drum covers




A couple of last years Drum Perth cover. I design one of these suckers every other week.

Funny Money


One of many notes I'm working on for an upcoming feature.

Fever Ray


Logo type for this weeks Zebra cover.

Inpress Summer Festival Guide


Made up this Summer Festival Guide last year for Inpress. Tried to get it feeling, you know, summery?

T Shirts





A few tshirts I screen printed last year. They're all a little on the geek side. Donald and Walter is Steely Dan. U&lc is a typography magazine logo from the 70-80s' which I blinged up a bit. The rest should make sense, no?

Brian Jonestown Massacre






Poster art I created for the BJM tour last year. Pretty flattering to do this for such a rad band. Anton is the most punk-rock musician ever. I was late on getting into them (thank you Katie).
The second poster was made using elements of an Indigenous artist who's name I unfortunately forget.

Some recent Inpress covers





Some of the more recent covers I've created for Inpress.
New cover format in the works. Much cleaner and bolder. None of that layering and random Photoshop crap which dominates street press right now. Sneak peaks soonish.

Duirnal Drawing




A couple of pen drawings I drew for Andy Jenkins' (Girl Skateboards) site bendpress.com.

Wiley


He didn't make the full tour. Had a bust up with his crew in Sydney. Sucks for everyone.

Ladytron



Since I've got to post lots of older stuff this isn't going to work chronologically. Random rules.
Here's a poster I've just finished for upcoming Ladytron tour.

Temp home for Manual Graphics

Hey there. Until I sort out a formal home for my work I'll be posting art up on this blog. Not too flash, I know, but it'll do until I find the time to make a site.

You can contact me by email if you're at all interested in me doing any work for you.

Cheers,
Matt
