Back in September we featured the scarily popular Monster Friends posters organized by Alex Pearson. Just in time for the holidays Alex has organized a second series featuring the Phoenix, El Chupacabra, Behemoth, and Leviathan. To top off last year’s effort, this series comes in two versions:
A regular 2-color print, and a Special Edition 3-color print with an added Glow in the Dark ink. The Special Edition also has extra illustrated details not in the regular version which are revealed only in the dark.
This is the second Monster Friends print set I’ve orchestrated, and although I approach it as a business venture and a product to be sold, I also want the creation process to be a fun collaboration for the artists involved. I think you can tell when someone enjoyed making something. It has more life in it.
They glow in the dark!
