Dave Matthews Band 1 Once I started delving into

Once I started delving into the mythology of archers I decided to reference the Greek character Artemis

I knew I wanted something in their beaks and liked the tension from the ribboning of a broken jawbreaker pattern

(Think of Jeremy Blake's art in the movie Punch Drunk Love

There's several times throughout the year here in Austin when the live venues are all packed with music and I think adding a festival devoted to standup comedy is something the city needed and wanted

Dave Matthews Band 1 Once I started delving intoI submitted a number of sketches to mgmt and we settled on this one. My thinking relates to the title of Dave's most recent album "away from the world" and the idea that artists often seek isolation from the rest of the world. The idea of a victorian style house floating on a iceberg had some weight to it and possibly summed up the idea Dave was going for. I associate this style of home with Dave's neck of the woods; it's distinctly east coast.
