Marco Almera began his artistic career in the SoCal Surf/Skate/Punk Rock culture of the early Eighties. As a teenager, he was inspired by the do-it-yourself style of this culture, and created his own t-shirts and graphics. Surfing and music had a big influence on the artists' style. An avid art student, he took to the printing process as well.

Screenprinting paved the way for airbrushing, and soon he began painting cars and t-shirts for family, friends and customers.

The Native American-style airbrushed shirts Almera painted became recognized at Indian Pow-Wows and Music Festivals around the country. This led to his graphics being licensed by bands for t-shirt designs in 1993. He started painting album covers in 1996.

Sublime "Joyride" Artist Proofs

The artist worked with Skunk Records and the band to perfect the image he came up with. The scene depicts an aggro SoCal surfer leaving Long Beach on a trip up North with his illegal Mexican girlfriend. The imagery and action reflect the band's music, most notably the quick tempo and the ocean setting. Artist proofs (a/p's) are all that's left of the run. They were picked as the best of the run and are from the artist's personal collection.

S.F. Rock Poster Revival

This poster advertises the upcoming art show,"San Francisco Rock Poster Revival", in which Marco Almera will be showing his art. The military theme represents the "army" of poster artists included in the show. They are armed with art supplies instead of weapons. The uniforms, tank, and planes are WWII-era, a favorite motif of the artist. The artist himself is depicted as the dominant soldier with the
paintbrush.

Almera has spent the past years working extensively in the surf and music industries, creating t-shirts, album covers and commissioned paintings. He has created a series of serigraphs which are in music stores and poster galleries throughout the
world. Most recently, he has enjoyed success with his serigraphs in Japan and Germany.

Marco Almera has done artwork or album covers for the following bands:

Sublime, Reverend, Horton Heat, Misfits, Primus, Voodoo Glow, Skulls, Bomboras, GWAR, Los Infernos, Filibuster, Ghastly Ones, Dropkick, Murphys, Still Dreadful, Hepcat, Dictators, Supersuckers and Ween

GWAR/Misfits

This image depicts a scene from the artist's childhood where the artist (with match) with his brother (with needle) torture plastic armymen. Now, this really happened, but in this scene the rest of the army patrol catches wind of these giant's despicable intentions and run to escape. Will they make it?
