The Stone Roses smashed the record for gig sales in the U.K. after all 240,000 tickets for their comeback concert at Heaton Park sold out in less than an hour. The original ad artwork certainly had the personal touch - hand-painted on canvas by guitarist John Squire.

 

For the global tour they wanted the same look and feel but John, understandably, didnt want to paint a new canvas for each date. In the end I was commissioned to edit the original artwork using photoshop wizardry to cut-up, recolour and recompose elements to make it look like each ad had been painted from scratch  - 13 dates in all.
