Country classics meet a little rhinestone-studded drama. For the Reno Philharmonic’s biggest annual fundraiser, Pops on the River 2024, the theme “Nashville to Neon” called for artwork with as much personality as the music itself. I created a series of custom illustrated cowboy boots inspired by Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, and Kacey Musgraves, each with its own distinct look pulled from the artist’s signature style. From Cash’s gritty edge to Dolly’s unapologetic sparkle and Kacey’s modern, psychedelic flair, every boot was designed to feel like its own little tribute. Three artists, three very different vibes, and one boot-scootin’ celebration of country music in all its forms.
