Clem Snide poster

Threw this together really quick. Not completely happy with it but I do like the buttons (which are buttons I actually own and scanned in and messed with).

I am super super super excited to open for Clem Snide. Great band. good good good.

Bull poster

This is a poster for a house show. I have another poster to finish after this one but I am going to see Ratatat tonight and possibly dress up like an animal.

more stuff

I finished my lamp two days ago. It turned out pretty dang cool. I will put some photos up later today. I also finished Ashley's flyer for her art show at Moshi Moshi in Portland for the month of April




Also finished this



Projects coming up- album artwork for my illustration class, which just so turns out to be perfect timing because I just got commissioned to do The Very Most's Summer EP. I guess Indiecater Records saw my previous work for The Very Most and wanted me to do more. woot.

Poster for a benefit show coming up in may- details coming soon. Poster for a house show in April- that is coming soon. My dad commissioned me to do a poster for an event called Mustache Ride-- the event isn't happening till next year, but he needs an image for it to pitch it and get funding for it.

that's all folks.

paintings work in progress

started these 2 paintings in class yesterday. This is just the first stage of oil painting- the imprimatura.

these are horrible photos of the paintings. they look way cooler in person.

6 posters in 2009!

I went back to see what posters I hadn't gotten around to uploading onto gigposters.com and found 6! I realized I have made 6 posters so far, in 2009. And I have 2 more coming up! I have also done a shirt design, album artwork, a button design, screen printed, painted a lamp, and made around 5+ other things.


.... I am not including the school work I have had, which is as follows: 5 paintings for human presence painting, 2 assignments for illustration, 3 illustrations for the arbiter, countless reading and writing for seminar.


below are the posters. Oldest to newest

nude sketches

We are starting painting number 3 and 4 in my figure painting class. By tomorrow I have to have 6 sketches prepared for 2 paintings we will be working on at the same time. I really love the idea of having one of my characters in the painting, or both, but represented realistically and three-dimensionally. I also want to work with the idea of these characters being in the back of the mind of the people in the painting- he is there but they are ignoring him. I think he could represent a lot, depending on what else is going on in the painting.

one of the sketches got completely muddied up in my scanner- sorry.

Split EP artwork

I am not going to post this with the song titles and band names as to not spoil a surprise. But a Boise band and Kennewick band are putting out a split ep together and this is the album artwork.

Pretty eye catching, I think. I like my tree illustration a lot because it is an actual painting, and not something I created on the computer.

A lot of these pieces in my blog are for sale if anyone is interested. Just email me @ julia.b.green@gmail.com

Rats with teddy bears!!!

I posted an amazingly cute photo a bit ago of a rat sleeping with a teddy bear. Then Colleen sent me a photo of another rat with a teddy. So I decided to google "rats with teddy bears" to see what I got. I found out who the rat is in the first photo! It is a rat named Bug, that a girl owns and likes to take really amazing photos of. You can even buy some of the photos! I might do it.


I also now want a pet rat. Seriously.... just wait and see.

you can see Bug the Rat here.

Hillfolk Noir poster (wip)

Here is a little peek at what I am working at for Hillfolk Noir's tour poster. I've been having a lot of fun with this one. I scanned all of the textures and drawings.

I also scored a giant piece of cardboard from work. It wouldn't even fit in my trunk of my car. I think it is atleast 4ft across. I can't wait to see what I do with it over the summer.
