One of America’s celebrated rock poster illustrators, Jay Ryan (born June 15, 1972) has created vibrant, distinctive works for a genre-defying collection of musicians and bands including the Arctic Monkeys, Crowded House, the Flaming Lips and thousands of others. From his small printshop ’The Bird Machine’ Ryan began to create posters for his friend’s bands as well as his own  - Dianogah. Favouring cartoon squirrels over generic themes and rock and roll motif, his work is both sought after by investors, and delightfully distinct for interior designers.

A fellow Chicago resident, Diana Sudyka’s (b.1972) early works included screenprints in collaboration with the noted Jay Ryan for music concerts and gallery exhibitions. Sudyka’s works are currently focused on book cover illustrations, with her natural love of folk art and woodland scenes finding an appreciative audience across several mediums.

This is a delightful and eye-catching decorative art poster. With great colour and detail, it will look great on any wall. Delivered ready to enjoy.
