Collective Soul has been part of my life since high school, so getting the chance to design a poster for them felt like everything coming full circle—especially since it became my first official band poster outside of Locust + Feather and the launch of my Ten Free Posters concept. I leaned into a mystical, tongue-in-cheek vibe with a “Holy Spirit”–style figure pointing toward the Collective Soul logo, dripping honey, floating with doves, and framed by a subtle St. Louis Arch in the background. The piece blends nostalgia, spirituality, and rock-n-roll into a visual homage to a band that helped shape my youth.
