I was honored to be called upon to discuss one of my ultimate guitar heroes. Can you guess which song I chose?
Thanks @stereogum.com stereogum.com/2476602/80-a...

Beyond thrilled to have done this design for @emmaruthrundle.bsky.social (links to US and UK/EU stores in the replies) for reasons evident in this Hex Records zine interview answer I gave a few years back (second image). Thanks so much to Emma for the trust 🫀

A t-shirt design for Emma Ruth Rundle. The image is gray on black.

The image is broken into two sections, with a horizontal, long image at the top of a tangle of different flowers, including sweet peas, clover, heather, mountain thyme, and pipsissewa. Gray hand-done, blackletter text all in lowercase sits below this rectangular strip, and below this, a larger rectangle (closer to square but still slightly shorter than it is wide) has a larger scene. A figure in a black dress is kneeling on cracked, arid ground, and leaning over with her hands in the dirt. She occupies about the top right 60% or so of the image (inexact estimate). The figure is not visible far above the elbows or much above the waist. She has dragged her hands through the ground and created small furrows with her fingers, and is creating a small mound of dirt between her hands. Small plants spring up from the furrows, and from the ground immediately around her skirt. The mound of dirt in front of her has a sweet pea seedling sprouting out of it, and sweet pea vines grow up and out of her arms, twining around them. The background landscape is a barren waste, with gnarled dead trees and strange rock formations. Both the top rectangle and the bottom are bordered by a decorative wrought iron design. #emmaruthrundle #illustrator #illustration #bandmerch

A photo of a black and white zine page with interview responses. At the bottom of the page are a few examples of my work. The text reads:

“Most of the bands you have done artwork for are certainly of the weird and heavy variety. Do you have a wish list of bands that you would like to do work for at
some point?

C: My answer that infuriates people with this is that yes, but it's more like that if I don't think my work is right for that band then I don't want to. I want to help represent the sound, so there are definitely bands and people that I would work with, but also a lot of the stuff that I listen to is not that heavy. It's one of those things where I feel like working alongside a lot of heavy music compliments the subject matter that I'm interested in. So without copping out, I love USA Nails, but I don't think I'm the right aesthetic for them.

(laughs) Probably not!

C: Right! So I would basically chew off my left arm to do a shirt for Low, or Emma Ruth Rundle, or The Mountain Goats, or Neko Case. But is that the right fit? Probably not. I'm lucky because I've gotten to work with some really cool bands. Godflesh would be cool, but they also have a very specific aesthetic. Or Neurosis would be really cool, but they also have their own sort of specific vibe.”
