Animal Band arrives

shortly after i got home tonight the UPS truck pulled up and with a knock and a thump roared off.

"a box?"

there's no more story needed.

my first (and currently, only, copy) of Animal Band showed up


here's the cover, with the jacket on it. larger : click image


the jacket pulled back. the jacket is die-cut and glossy. the case (the physical outside of the book) is matte with UV on the title to make it shiny. this scene wraps around the back. larger : click image


here's an inside spread, the action of the book heating up. larger : click image

then there is Sterling Publishing's spring guide. they told me Animal Band was going to be featured prominently... this is kind of silly. (i'm not complaining.)

- the top image is Animal Band's spread in the catalogue.
- the bottom left image is the cover of the catalogue
- the bottom right shows one of the section pages. Animal Band images are the illustration for these spreads.

i am honored. there are some BEAUTIFUL books being released by Sterling in the spring. Animal Band's place in the catalogue is crazy and humbling.
