Coheed and Cambria: The Afterman

I was commissioned by famed prog rock band Coheed & Cambria to create 18 original paintings as illustrations for their epic two-album concept record, The Afterman.

The process was pretty amazing, meeting with frontman Claudio Sanchez either in person or over the phone and email to discuss the direction for each image as they were recording the album.

At the conclusion of the creative process, the band released their record and we got to do an art exhibit and live show in Santa Monica, CA for a group of thrilled fans.
All nine paintings for the Afterman: Ascension first album and section of the special edition book.
Final Evagria painting and sketch process to reach the painted work. Each drawing was brainstormed and sent over to Claudio, which he would respond to between recording sessions.
Rounding out the set we see the final nine paintings for the Afterman: Descension portion of the album.
