Cover up

I recently did an illustration for a book review in the Boston Globe. The books were about the Woodstock festival and totally coincidental to my recent post about Woodstock, so I was definitely in the free love, hippie mood.

These were a lot of fun to do and Jane Martin, the art director, was really great to work with.

After a couple of revisions to do some "cover up," we were able to come up with the final piece. Well, see for yourself...

Free Love

I'm no hippie... a lot of people I know definitely has some inner hippie in them and even though I make fun of them its only because I'm jealous that I'm not.

But, if I could transport myself in time I would go back to to 1969 and to Woodstock. After seeing these photos by Burk Uzzle, I feel like I'm right there.




Burk Uzzle's Show "Woodstock 40th Anniversary" is up at Laurence Miller Gallery in New York ti August 7th.

"Do your own thing, wherever you have to do it and whenever you want. Drop out. Leave society as you have known it. Leave it utterly. Blow the mind of every straight person you can reach. Turn them on, if not to drugs, then to beauty, love, honesty, fun."-Time Magazine, July 1967
