Too few times in an artist’s life will come clients offering him creative control over their content.
And so it was with now-defunct Kurator, whose art director seemed happy enough with my work until last month when they went suspiciously quiet and refused to answer my emails.
A quick scan of the web reveals no such magazine. Ah well.
Its a bitch of a time to be starting up such endeavors and my condolences go to the staff of yet another deceased monthly art and design title.
UPDATE: I spoke with the editor of the mag who informs me that they will be back in business in the next couple of months once they sort out their advertisers.
Here’s the first of two covers I did for Kiev-based Kurator magazine.
Ink Originals from the featured cover will shortly be available from this blog.
Another element from the Tohuvabohu art file.
This is the original ink art that was scanned in to complete the album cover.
Hand-drawn with brush-pen and rapidograph, this 5”x7” illustration was the definitive final version before I traced it in Illustrator and coloured it.
I am now proud to present it for sale, price 275 euros (incudes shipping and handling). Contact: bruteprop@gmail.com
(If unsold in three weeks, I will then put it up for auction on eBay).
Limited edition Abe Lincoln posters are still available from the BRUTE! Prop Shop, along with many others. Check them out at http://bruteprop.com/v3/shop_index.htm

I‘m often asked how much preparatory work goes into each album cover I do and this series of rough conceptual work goes some way in illustrating how the final design comes about.
3 months before the final artwork was completed, I started outlining the various ideas I had for the sleeve and a slew of pictures emerged from the process which Sascha and I discussed before I began to build the final image.
Now, I am able to present these images for sale. Anyone interested, please leave your contact details in the comments box below or contact me via our Gmail account bruteprop@gmail.com and I’ll provide prices and size details.
All the above are rendered in black indian ink and signed.
