"Bob...What are Bad vamps?" "Bad Vamps" are a combustible combination of imaginary products mixed with those retro bad girls of pulp fiction and B-movies. The series of poster sized images are inspired by, among other things, a love of early and mid 20th century poster art and the covers from my collection of vintage "bad girl" paperbacks (sometimes referred to as "Good Girl Art".) Dot patterns, bad cropping, dust specks, color overlap and other abberations of mass printing along with the creases, folds, and sun fading that occur over time to paper ephemera are embraced and used as part of the design and character of the Bad Vamp poster s.
