Chris Gallen Design Freelance Graphic Designer - Specializing in artwork for the Music Industry

**Please follow my Instagram for any updates www.Instagram.com/chris_gallen/ **

Clean lines, sharp edges, symmetry, utilizing negative space, deeply-rooted concepts, and harmonious color palettes - These are a few of my favorite things. Specializing in graphic design for the music industry, I focus on creating impactful,lasting designs that catch the eye on first glance, and invite the viewer to

further analyze and absorb the details. Diligent research, exploration, and experimentation of the subject matter is a large part of my process. I want the audience to be excited about deep, sometimes hidden, connections between the subject and the art. Often, I use elements from our natural world to make those connections - whether it be plants, animals, landscapes, or environment. In addition to our natural world, I draw inspiration from various genres of music (particularly the live music experience) and from a wide range of traditional/digital artists throughout history. I enjoy challenging myself by attempting different styles of art, but some favorites are Psychedelia, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Freeform, Abstract, Minimalism, Pop Art, and Op Art. Currently residing in San Francisco, California, I have gone all-in on my love of art and design, developing a freelance career as a unique visual designer. I’m constantly challenging myself to learn new things, improve my process, and raise the bar for what I am capable of.

Super excited to show my poster for tonight’s Trey Anastasio show at Tanglewood Music Center - A very special Orchestra show, playing with the Boston Pops! See below for AP info.

The Koussevitzky Music Shed’s overhead ceiling, above the stage, has a very cool triangle/polygonal structure to it - featured here in the top center. Monarch Butterflies indicate summertime in the Berkshires. Along with one of Trey’s Languedoc guitars, a Martin D-35 Acoustic, plus Double Bass’, Cellos, Violins, and horns, wrapped in vines with flowers all local to Lenox, MA.

18”x24” 5-Color Screenprints, on White stock, and a Rainbow Foil variant with semi-transparent red/yellow/blue inks. Fantastic printing by Baker Prints. Hugely honored for the opportunity - Thank you so much to Jimmy for asking me to take on this project!

AP copies of both paper and foils, will be up on my site ( cgd.bigcartel.com ), this Monday July 1st, at 9am PST / Noon EST - Limit one per person - any multiples, or suspected bots/flippers will be cancelled

VIP Poster for Pretty Lights this weekend here in San Francisco, at the legendary Warfield Theater - I’m super grateful to have gotten this opportunity, and I spent a ton of (fun) time getting this dialed-in. It’s a bit of a departure from my typical style.

AP copies of my Charleston prints will be on sale this THURSDAY JUNE 8 , at 10am PST / 1pm EST, at CGD.BIGCARTEL.COM . LIMIT ONE PER HOUSEHOLD. Any more than one copy being ordered, will be cancelled and refunded. I will do my best to identify and cancel bot orders. If I see someone flipping for big profit elsewhere, they will be cancelled as well. This is an imperfect system, and it’s impossible to get all copies into the hands of fans- but I will certainly try.

There will be both versions - one on Natural stock, and one on Rainbow Foil. Thank you for your cooperation!
