Art of Jung Park M.C.Barrett Concept Art Sketchpad of Doom dump of paint Record Covers - RodneyMatthews.com Rodney Matthews is perhaps best known for his record cover designs, and for good reason; he has been responsible for well over seventy since he was commissioned by Thin Lizzy in 1969. Strangely, Rodney could have obtained more commissions in this genre had he been a better businessman. During the Sixties and Seventies he had played with his band on the same stages as many other well known acts: Cream, Manfred Mann, Slade, Eric Clapton's Derek and the Dominoes, Yes, and Genesis to name a few, but it hadn't occurred to him to take along his portfolio to solicit work! He was also getting commissions from David Howells at MCA Records in the early '70s, but for black & white caricature and cartoon work for Stackridge rather than the Osibisa (and later Yes) covers that fell to another designer and illustrator from Howells. His first interest in record cover design goes back to the 1950s when he beheld the Bill Haley 'Rock Around the Clock' EP.
ANEYEONI.COM SUNDAY, OCTOBER 2nd 2005 Too much news and projects ! I’m currently too busy to update my gallery but I’ve got tons of new pictures to show. My website even need a new complete lifting, with removal of a lot of old pictures. I’m currently still working on the next Splinter Cell videogame, some more Magic cards, another big Wizard of the Coast project, covers for books and RPG books ( White Wolf, Gallimard, Fleuve Noir, COPS for Asmodée), the second issue of « Legends of the Round table » for Soleil… And last but not least the biggest project is certainly MERLIN, a 130 fully illustrated pages artbook edited in french by Soleil, written by Jean-Luc Istin with illustration, design and layout by my friend Jean-Sébastien Rossbach and myself. The temporary cover and some previews : And I'll go to the next ConceptArt.org workshop at Prague next month (October21/24) with the freakin' CA crew. I’ve also got some other images in the artbook Exotique published soon by Ballistic Publishing.
