Artist: David Habben




















California based illustrator David Habben.

I'm not too sure how to classify Habben's style; at first it looks very innocent, and kind of 'americanime', but looking closer, his work is quite the opposite (of that detestable animation style that keeps ruining otherwise great stories).

Some of his pieces do indeed show us innocence, but there's nothing innocent about his artistic style: other pieces show us the effects of rocking out and the demise of those rocking irresponsibly, like when a flaming lion eats your guitarist's head. Very rock and roll (the piece is entitled 'sacrifice').
