Riddickart Private Studio/Gallery Space

I’ve finally managed to create my own studio space in my new home. My private studio boasts a sizable vinyl collection with record player (so I can spin records while I work), and incredible original black and white framed illustrations by Vincent Locke, Matt ‘Putrid’ Carr, Daniel Desecrator, Mike Majewski, Aaron Crawford, Dennis Dread, Toshihiro Egawa, Jeff Zornow, and Rob Smits! It’s an underground death metal artist shrine. More to come soon!!!

I was fortunate enough to have another opportunity to illustrate for the legendary Swedish death metal masters, GRAVE! This new T-Shirt illustration will be used for their “Those Whom the Gods Detest” European Tour with NILE, KRISIUN, and ULCERATE. Fucking underground!

The episode is titled “Steel Eyed Death” and is scheduled to run on the air in a few weeks. Law & Order is one of the longest running primetime series in American television history, now on its twentieth season.
