the Ritual Crew and New Illustration Work

After what has seemed like ages of talks, plans, hand shakes, and old fashioned elbow grease the expansion of Ritual Art/ARTofJOEKING.com is nearly complete! I have a couple tasks to finish before I do an official introduction to the team but all the boring work seems to be behind us for now. The first round of meetings with the Ritual Crew has left me extremely excited for the future of the business as well as the amazing art and projects that we intend to create together. The whole experience thus far has been a surreal manifestation of my dreams and I am so grateful to have the support of you the fans to make it all possible... it's spectacular. Thank you!

Today I'll be putting the finishing touches on a piece I've been working on for the Luthiers Co-Op located next door to Off the Map in jolly ol' Easthampton Ma. Luthiers Is definitely one of my all time favorite places to be. Not only do they buy, sell, restore, and repair vintage stringed instruments and tube amps Luthiers is also a bar and music venue featuring microbrews on tap and live local entertainment almost every night with zero cover charge. I am so thrilled to do business with such a great group of people and I can't wait to share the new imagery that we've come up with!

Things are good friends! Spring is in the air....
