Artist Statement
"Siren represents our role as stewards of the ocean and the responsibility we face; our ability to save or destroy it. Like the mythological mermaid, we come from the ocean and are inherently connected to it, and we too can be saviors or bringers of death."

Artist Bio
Richey Beckett is a pen and ink illustrator based in rural Wales. He has lent his intricately detailed linework to record covers for some of the world's biggest bands. Drawing inspiration from biblical and natural history illustrators and engravers such as Doré, Durer, and Bewick, the decorative flair of Art Nouveau, the striking colors of psychedelia, and the organic textures and patterns of nature, Beckett has crafted his own vivid visual language that expands with each piece.
Over the last decade, Beckett has been invited to create artwork for Metallica, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, The Grateful Dead, Foo Fighters, Queens Of The Stone Age, Mastodon, Nine Inch Nails, Jack White, Robert Plant, and Black Sabbath. He has created movie posters and official artwork for Jim Henson's "Labyrinth," HBO's "Game Of Thrones," Sam Raimi's "Army Of Darkness," John Boorman's "Zardoz," AMC's "The Walking Dead," Robin Hardy's "The Wicker Man," and David Robert Mitchell's "It Follows."
