Dave Crosland enjoys peanut butter, road trips, and samurai flicks. He dislikes yogurt and mosquitoes. Since graduating from The Columbus College of Art and Design in 2000, this delicious youngster's art has appeared in comic books such as Puffed, The Popgun Anthology, and Scarface: Scarred For Life. He's also done a variety of work outside of comics, creating album covers for Gym Class Heroes and hip-hop guru Blueprint, a stage backdrop for Incubus, concert posters, tattoo flash, and designs for indie apparel and panties. Dave has painted live and shown fine art in places like Gallery 1988 (SF/LA), 111 Minna (SF), Copro Nason (LA), Meltdown (LA), The Metro (Chicago), and Club Deville (Austin). Crosland's clients have included IDW Publishing, Image Comics, Atlantic Records, Ride Snowboards, and Mad Magazine. His original artwork has been enjoyed by private collectors of all ages, both in the USA and abroad.
