Cannibal Corpse - Butchered At Birth - original artwork for sale















This is the original art for the Cannibal Corpse CD Butchered at Birth. The cover received lots of attention and was banned in several countries. Some copies of the CD were sold wrapped in butcher paper. Still one of my most well known paintings.

The art is watercolor and acrylic on 12"x12" illustration board. The art is framed and ready to be hung on your wall.

Artwork is listed on eBay with a starting bit of $5,000.

Vince Locke is an accomplished artist who began work in 1986 illustrating Deadworld, a zombie horror comic that soon became an underground hit. Since then, his illustrative talents in comics have included The Sandman, American Freak, Batman, Witchcraft: Le Terreur, The Spectre, and A History of Violence, which was later made into a movie directed by David Cronenberg and starring Viggo Mortensen. Locke has also gained notoriety by creating ultra-violent watercolor paintings used as album covers for the death metal band Cannibal Corpse, and by providing illustrations for the dark-fantasy author CaitlĂ­n R. Kiernan. He lives with his wife and son in Michigan, where he continues to draw and paint many things, one of which being the all-new graphic novel for Top Shelf, Junction True, written by Ray Fawkes -- due to be published in 2011.
