Rock and Roll Hall of Famers, ZZ Top, are looking for bold new poster art in support of their first record in 9 years, La Futura. Produced by Rick Rubin, La Futura “reflects the solid blues inspiration that has powered the band since the very beginning with a contemporary approach”.
Deadline: November 16, 2012 11:59 P.M. PDT
Cash Award: $500.00
For this contest, take the same method that ZZ Top did with La Futura and create a classic piece of blues-inspired art while adding in your own contemporary style.

Suggested Theme & Style Guidelines
Be influenced by the artwork for the album, La Futura, and feel free to use the song titles (found on the ‘More Info’ page) as added inspiration.
However, do NOT use any of the album art in your design and avoid mimicking it directly.
Be creative and defy the obvious. Your illustration should be a strong, distinctive design that stands on its own as a piece of art. Like the album cover, make your design embody the rich heritage in bluesy, American art.
