Don't Hold Your Breath

BRIANEWING.com   While he’s become a sought-after household name for record labels and agencies, Brian Ewing has stayed true to the independent spirit of his art, and his style has developed over time. “At first I was just happy to get a chance to draw stuff and work with my favorite bands,” he says of his early punk rock posters. But with his growth from poster artist to full-blown fine artist, he’s followed in the footsteps of his heroes and mentors--Frank Kozik, Coop, Tara McPherson and many others--building an instantly recognizable stylistic empire. Although Ewing has transformed into one of rock music and pop art’s most prolific, iconic image-makers, remaining down-to-earth and staying inspired are key elements to the growth of his rebellious art empire. With his first monograph, “Don’t Hold Your Breath: The Art Of Brian Ewing,” which publisher Dark Horse allowed him to lay out himself, the reader can see the progression and maturation of his imagery, from power-packed and densely composed rock posters to the nuanced, deceptively simple and subversive works of more recent vintage. What’s next? Only Ewing knows, but no matter what, it will be unmistakably his.

"THE BOUNCING SOULS x HOT WATER MUSIC" Los Angeles 2/13-14/04 18" x 27" • Offset Print • Signed & Numbered . Wow...what a blast from the past. I can't believe this is from 19 years ago!!! This was the 2nd of 3 posters I got to design for @bouncingsoulsnj !!! #TheBouncingSouls were always a favorite band of mine. Aside from creating great and memorable music, they were always NICE people! I have a funny about how I introduced my mom to the band at the 2004 warped tour. Can't wait to tell you that someday... During this period of my life, I was doing a LOT of poster work for the almighty @thetroubadour. It was my art (and business) school. One of the perks of working for Christine and "the Troub" was that I got to go to shows for free! I still remember how much fun these shows were! @hotwatermusicofficial killed it that night as well. At the end of their set, the Souls came out and they all did HWM's #TrustyChords". Here's to hoping I'll get to do more work with @bouncingsoulsnj and @hotwatermusicofficial !!! . . . . . #BouncingSouls #anchorsaweigh #HotWaterMusic #HoplessRomantic #warpedtour #brianewing #illustration #gigposter #brianewingfiendclub #2004 (at The Troubadour) https://www.instagram.com/p/Com79yHut1Q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m stoked to show off some NEW #FREECRAP to throw in with everyone's orders!!! . I'm trying to change things up when people order stuff from me. I ran out of the #bonerfetti and the printer politely asked that they NEVER haft run that again. Haha! So I thought it would be fun to try these cards. Plus, it's a way to promote the sexy #brianewingfiendclub ooh la la!!! . These will be included in ALL #ValentinesDay card orders along with stickers and whatever else I find laying around the studio. . . . I'm going to be caught up on ALL card orders today and will then start on the non-card orders with the plan of getting all that out by this FRIDAY! After that, I can FINALLY pick back up on the PUSCIFER remarques! BIG BIG THANKS to everyone for their patience! . . . I really need to get a shipping assistant. . . . . . #brianewing #illustration #design #eyeball #merch #promo #businesscard #imtired #iwanttogobacktosleep #icantwaittohaveafreedaytomyself https://www.instagram.com/p/CoIG2EBO9TF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
