Psychomagic Band, "Bad Ideas" Album Art

Recently, I had the honor of doing artwork for the band Psychomagic!

In addition to designing their artwork, I also performed with the group for their

album release at Mississippi Studios in Portland, OR!  This was so fun!

The artwork is based on Dr. Rek's costume that he performs in.

I was inspired by classic Kaiju posters and the "cosmic" theme.
