i’ve got some new old stuff being made available via society6. while i’m on tour, you can get some prints, and some new stuff like laptop skins and iphone cases, from society6.com/adamxvass check it out and keep checking back all week as i add new pieces!
I wish I didn’t oversleep so I could’ve announced this with everyone else, but as you may already know, there is an awesome split coming out between Braid and Balance & Composure. I was honored to be asked to do the artwork and am very happy with the result. You can find out about where to pre-order, pressing info, etc over at nosleeprecords.tumblr.com today. These songs are great.
Anyways, here is the cover. All of the photos were taken by yours truly as well. I’ve also included a better view of the logo that gets buried on the front cover and is featured a bit more prominently on the inside. Lastly, a little easter egg, right above the barcode is a picture of me at alcatraz wearing my Certain Tragedy tee (get yours for $11 now on sale). Stoked to see this project come together and can’t wait for everyone to get their hands on it. Thanks.

Today, Run For Cover announced the upcoming split between Anti-Flag and Hostage Calm, and everyone is rightfully excited. I was lucky enough to get to be involved with it, and here are some pieces of the final product, as well as progress shots and rejected ideas.

My boyfriends in Balance and Composure are going out on their headlining tour this week, and I’m very proud of them. Here are some of the logo designs I did for their upcoming split with emo legends Braid that didn’t come to fruition. I’m very happy with the cover that we ended up with, but cool to see some of the steps we took to get there.

I have a ton of paintings I’ve made for various projects in an envelope in my room. Yesterday I realized I needed to get rid of a lot of things I was keeping around, and this overflowing envelope caught my eye. Even though a lot of these I’d like to keep, it doesn’t make that much sense to do so. Here is where you come in.
Now, there are 26 pieces up for sale as a grab-bag type of thing. For $7.50, you get an original painting, randomly selected by me. Some of them are in color, some black and white, some weird shapes but mostly rectangles, some have been prints or in zines, some will be exclusive to this sale. To match, I’ve got 26 stickers from my personal collection to pair with them, in addition to the usual stickers I include with most orders. This is a pretty killer deal. And if it catches on, I’ll do another round with some other stuff I’ve been hoarding.
In addition to these new pieces, most of my old prints have had their prices reduced so I can make room for some new stuff. Get them before they’re gone forever.
Visit adamxvass.bigcartel.com to get yours.
got this really rad painted postcard from Tanner today, I’ve loved his work since I saw it in Dark Arts zines and am stoked to add this little guy to my collection. Check out his work on his tumblr.
Also, here is my post office box number, in case other people want to send me drawings. And if you ordered To Distract Myself From Feeling Depressed, I’m still looking for a name for the alien character, so send me suggestions via snail mail.
