My website is down!

Edit: My website is back up thanks to Chris Wheeler, and hopefully MikeTysonDesign.com will be up in the near future.

I'm really glad that I set up my blog on blogger instead of my website. My actual website (http://www.mikelaughead.com) is down right now, but you can still get to my portfolio on Shannon Associates.

If you are looking to buy my poster for the band ISLANDS... go here =Poster Ad on Gigposters.com.

Sorry about any difficulty that this is causing anyone.

New Illustration

This is for an article about new freshmen feeling overwhelmed when they first go to college. This one took a lot longer than my usual stuff. I was trying for a bit more subtlety and I found out that being subtle in art takes a lot longer. I'm not sure if I'm sold on the whole thing. Maybe if I get paid a lot more for each illustration... ok, that's enough complaining. I had a lot of fun with this one. Hope you guys like it.

3 New Illustrations..

T-shirt design for a high school debate team,


Spot illustration for an article about other people getting under your skin.


I'm messing with my style a little bit. I'm trying to add some shadow in a chalk-ish way.

Islands Poster for sale!

Tyson and I made our first screen printed poster. We are selling copies from this website for $20 (that includes shipping) to buyers in the US. If you live outside of the United States and want a copy send me an email and I'll figure out the shipping cost. We invested a little bit of money into priting these and we would like to make some back, so please check it out and buy one if you like it. Anyone that has seen my work may recognize this image from an illustration I had done before. We took that image as a starting point and then Tyson went a little crazy with some textures. It turned out pretty nice. Thanks for checking it out.
Buy it HERE!

Another Threadless submission...

Vote if you want. If they print it I get $1500 so even if you hate the shirt you can still give me a good score if you like.
