Alan Forbes

Alan Forbes inks from beyond the void. His non-linear lines start in the 60s poster jungle and end in the realm of Forbes, to live and describe the twisted beauty of his internal eye. His work for contemporary bands gives them a psychic weight that connects with the viewer like none other. A virtual lifetime of work for the Black Crowes has developed an aesthetic that’s populated by anthropomorphized crows, esoteric meaning, and a mushroom under every stone. His inked pages are each a masterpiece of their own. Image, type, and page are one in the same, informing the viewer that this field of hallucinogenic pathways and foreboding cosmic entities is all around you.
