What better way to ring in the New Year than by guzzling some fancy brewskies designed by yours truly? Critically acclaimed Quebec microbrewery Brasserie Dunham<\/a> commissioned me to design their latest Pale Ale Am\u00e9ricaine label & it was launched Halloween 2018 to such success they sold out their first batch & are currently on their second! My artwork was originally intended for six-pack boxes that bottles came in, but the brewery phased out bottles in favor of cans, so art director Simon Boss\u00e9<\/a> expertly adapted my drawings to fit cylindrically! I had designed it with gimmicky cartoon kids\u2019 breakfast cereal boxes in mind so you could read the packaging while guzzling! Works just as well with cans IMO, & they even come in handy four-packs. In between gulps, follow the legendary Brasserie serpent snaking its way in & out of the party-time bricks & mortar Dunham complex I drew! Turn it into a drinking game! Below is the original box art layout & the finished can. Find out where you can purchase them with Dunham’s handy (albeit occasionally clunky) \u201cPoints de Vente\u201d map HERE<\/a>. If the map happens to be down, I know for a fact that Peluso in Montreal sells them (251 Beaubien East)!<\/p>\n

This isn’t the first time I’ve worked with silkscreen artist extraordinaire Simon Boss\u00e9. I met him during Montreal’s DIY zine\/comix explosion of the early nineties & he invited me to contribute to his 1993 comix anthology \u201cKekrapules\u201d (Milles Putois), along with Henriette Valium, Richard Suicide & Julie Doucet among many others. It was also one of the first publications I ever encountered the work of Mike Diana (& his piece was a doozy)! Below are my two pages:<\/p>\n

Simon Boss\u00e9 & I also collaborated on a huge silkscreen poster that was requested from us by Amphetamine Reptile Records for Minneapolis band The Cows in 1996. I drew it & laid it out, he did the color separation & silkscreening, & then we shipped a whole pile of them out so they could advertise the show with it. To this day I have no idea how it was received or if it was even used at all! If anyone out there recalls ever having seen this thing up, lemme know! BTW, I have a scant few of these left for sale (pictured below). They’re on 25 X 19 inch card stock. If you’re interested, contact me at ricktrembles (at) hotmail (dot) com.<\/p>\n

Simon Boss\u00e9 also still has copies of my 2014 silkscreened mini-comic \u201cDollar Sign\u201d that you can purchase from his website HERE<\/a>. (Pencil preliminary art of the cover pictured below).<\/p>\n

I’ve worked with Simon Boss\u00e9 on plenty of other projects in the past & am looking forward to working on more of them with him in the future. In fact he just asked me to contribute a new comic to his upcoming 2019 issue of Journal l’\u00c9tiquette<\/a>! Pictured below is my previous entry to Journal l’\u00c9tiquette (with colors by Raphaele Bard) but this time he’s giving me a quarter page! Stay tuned!<\/p>\n
