This illustration was born out of a spark I found while reading an extraordinary book — Michael Herr’s Dispatches, which I honestly consider a masterpiece of war reportage. It’s a raw, unfiltered chronicle of the Vietnam War, the kind that lingers long after you turn the last page.
Most people know another towering work from that era — Apocalypse Now, Coppola’s iconic and haunting vision of conflict. What’s often forgotten is that Michael Herr helped shape the tone and narrative texture of that film.
I won’t turn this into a full article — instead, I’ll simply point you toward both the book and the movie; they’re absolutely worth experiencing. And since I work in the world of books — designing covers, living among stories, and drawing inspiration from them — it felt natural to begin the illustration journey right here. It’s a perfect starting point.
PIXIES European Tour 2025. It’s an honor to have created this limited edition. I hope you vibe with it, because it’s something special!
No introductions needed — you know the name, you know the sound. These guys are rock ‚n’ roll royalty. Pure, high-voltage legends. 🤘
This concept channels the raw power of the Steel City, infused with heavy metal history and high-voltage vibes. Inspired by the legendary energy of AC/DC, it’s designed to hit like a power chord—loud, electric, and impossible to ignore.
Because some bands don’t just play. They ignite.
This poster came to life thanks to @collectionzz — appreciate the collaboration!
I am extremely pleased to show you my gig poster for @pearljam Sydney 2024 / Dark Matter World Tour. It is an amazing feeling and opportunity that has happened to me. Creating an official poster for the legendary Pearl Jam - how cool is that!
Thanks @mrtsurt ! 🫡 It’s nice to be a small part of big things. ❤️💪
The poster is inspired by The Lithgow Panther, or the Blue Mountains Panther – a mythical creature in Australian folklore.
Here’s an illustration sparked by a RATM track. I could go on and on about the energy and the meaning of this band, but let’s be real — Rage doesn’t need an intro, and their message speaks loud enough on its own.
This is the kickoff for a new series of music-inspired illustrations. Hope it hits right.

Know Your Enemy by Rage Against The Machine.

The Man Machine
An illustration inspired by the track of the same title by the legendary group KRAFTWERK. It wasn’t easy for me to pick just one favorite track. I’ve had a Tour de France project in mind for a long time. Their music is still pioneering and inspiring — it hasn’t aged a bit. It continues to inspire new generations (I hope). Die Mensch-Maschine is my favorite album — aside from Minimum–Maximum
Go give it a listen! It’s worth it.
Kling Klang forever!
