Activate 2015: NIGHTBLOOM Update

So happy with last weekend's massive Activate event that I was asked to participate in! My mural "Night Bloom" was viewed by nearly 3,000 people who wandered into the immersive environment that was the Sullivan Center alleyway in Chicago's legendary Loop district.


 
 

Many, many thanks to Anna from Johalla Projects and Tristan from the Chicago Loop Alliance for helping me to bring my work into existence and, ultimately, to the public. I hope to be working with both of them in the future!

New Work Added

"Asclepius" 9"x12" ink on watercolor paper
 

Be sure to check out johnnydeckermiller.com to see some of the new drawings I've been working on lately. I've got a lot in the works as of late, so there will be plenty more info to come in next few weeks.

Votaries of the Cemetery

 "Baron" 9"x12" pen & ink on watercolor paper

 "Ingressus" 9"x12" pen & ink on watercolor paper

 "The Way of All Flesh" 9"x12" pen & ink on watercolor paper

These are just a few of the drawings I will be featuring in my book "Votaries of the Cemetery" which is now in the works. As I continue to chip away at the series of drawings that will fill the book, I am hoping to have some incredible prints available to accompany the project. Each print will be lovingly signed, stamped and sealed in a beautifully designed and hand assembled package. To complete the package, each print will be accompanied with poetic invocations that relate to the imagery and symbolism found in each piece. I will be updating on here as progress is made in on this project.
