Collaboration Process (Featuring the fabulous Edgar McHerly)

01.04.11 | 17 Comments

I recently had the pleasure of collaborating on a design with the amazing Edgar, and I thought I’d share the process. Whenever I look at other artists’ collaborations, I wonder how they did it and who did what, so I thought it would be neat to share how we worked on it. One of the cool things is that the title morphed along with the design. It’s kind of a long post with lots of images, so you’re going to have to click “more” to see it. icon smile graphic art

Fig 1. “Books N’ Such” – I started us off with some artistic nonsense.

    Even looking at this post I don’t see how you did it. It’s so ridiculously bizarre and wonderful! I feel like I should have smoked something before looking, though. Thanks, Boots (and Edgar, of cours)!

    Hey thanks, Mancho. You know, if you look at it after smoking something, it might actually make sense.

    Mancho – Pass me whatever you’re smoking, I want to find that couch!
