The LOST posters I designed are featured in this month’s issue of HOW Magazine! They received an outstanding award in this year’s self-promo design competition. Thanks to my friends at HOW for the nice write up. I’m honored to be included in the annual.
This is just incredible. Some friends of mine wound up getting to meet Michael Emerson (aka Benjamin Linus) and watched the LOST series finale at his home! They presented him with a signed set of my posters as a gift. And here they are. Wow.
These prints are available on abc.com

What a cool thing to see!
Pretty cool Ty! You are kicking ass!! Will you be at the Business design conference this year?
dude, those LOST prints are sick…met you a few years back at HOW in Vegas.
As luck would have it, last week I had the unbelievable opportunity to fill in for DocArzt and TVOvermind on the Red Carpet at the LOST Live Event at UCLA! I got a chance to meet the cast and the producers of the show and was lucky enough to have them sign some of the Lost prints I designed. Needless to say, the whole thing was an incredible experience. You can hear more about it on DocArtz’s podcast and on TVOvermind.com. Below are some of the pictures I took.
All of the Lost prints I designed and other merchandise are available at ABC.com…but I’m keeping this one.

The WOW factor of this has made me speechless. Congrats on your good fortune!!
so awesome. i wish i could have seen them all. did you keep the one that the cast signed too? or is that combined w/ the damon and carlton one?
Ty, I was one of the fortunate group that you were so generous with in the parking garage after Lost Live. I just had to say thank you again! I was a fan of your work, but to meet you and find out what a nice guy you are was wonderful! :)
How cool. Your work is so fantastic, I’m so glad you were able to get it signed by some of the cast and Darlton. I look forward to seeing what you come up with for your finale design for the series finale. Great work.
Very cool Ty. So awesome that you got to meet some of the creative people behind the show. Excellent photography as well.
That is amazing! You are my newest hero … graphic designer, illustrator, lost fan, AND you got to meet/talk to the cast!
DUDE. I can’t believe this! So lucky, well played my friend, well played…
Wow, I really wish I could have gone to that. So jealous!
Nice Ty!

Holy shit!
This is so awesome. You’re own header and category on abc.com!
Congrats dude…way cool!
Hey, awesome prints. Are they all open editions? Did you sign and number any of them? Thanks. Hoping to add a few to my walls.
Is this signed or numbered?
That is just seriously so awesome. What a great connection Lost and it’s creators have with their fan base to recognize this amazing work you did and make it part of the official Lost world!! I am so stoked for these! Congratulations!!
Congratulations Ty. You really deserve all the recognition you are getting for these. Awesome work! Thanks again, for doing the interview with us.
congrats TY…so cool that they gave you your own section…and titled it your name!
I just bought this, I can’t wait to have them all! Congrats!
These are awesome™! Can’t wait to buy one. :)
Congrats on these. All of them are fantastic. Headed over to the ABC store right now . . .
i want the three “yellow” ones NOW! i’m normally patient, but these are remarkable!
You had me right up until the last one. That’s the wrong VW bus. The production used second generation Type II’s (1968-1972) for the Dharma vans. You’ve used a first generation. I get the artistic license thing, but this is missing the point. The van you’ve used was never on the show.
I am curious as to what paper these are printed on?
wow! can’t wait until all are available! love them! great job!!
These are so incredibly amazing. I love all of them!
Are these still available for sale? The link does not work anymore.
[...] Show. I might need to get one for my man, since he’s OBSESSED with Lost. Check out his prints here or at the ABC store. Posted by ehalvey on May 12, 2010 Leave a Comment » [...]
I was completely blown away by the response to the first set of Lost-inspired designs I created. Thanks to everyone who left a comment or sent me an email. I tried to reply to each person individually, but if you didn’t hear from me – thank you for all the compliments. Since I got such a great feedback on the first batch of artwork (and as a huge fan of the show), I decided to create a another series. To commemorate the final season, I will create one design for each episode. I will add the new art to this post, after the show airs, so check back on Wednesdays to see the latest show-inspired design.
[ UPDATE 5/20: All of the original Lost-inspired designs I created as well as other merchandise will be available on ABC.com the day after the finale! ]

The Substitute

So, so sweet. I love the black & white theme.
Awesome Ty!
are you kidding me? Ridiculous!
Okay, now you’re just showing off.
So awesome!
still on my list to see… season 6 that is… looks great!
These will be timeless! Great work!
BRILLIANT Stuff Ty! Your earlier posters featured in my Lost Inspired Artwork series and I am going to link to these too. You are a legend man!
great work dude! also, please let us know how the show ends haha.
Awesome. I only use B&W backgrounds on my desktop so I love this ones.
So great, Ty. Love them all.
Ty! Awesome! Can’t wait to see the what else you come up with for the remaining eps.
Be careful…you don’t want to pigeon hole yourself as the ‘lost poster’ guy…but these are incredible.
he’d hardly be pigeon holed. all of his work is amazing. can’t wait to see the entire series!!
Awesome as always!!! I’m a huge admirer of your work!
Great work Ty! The handcuff one is especially cool. Can’t wait to see more from you as the season moves on!
Really fantastic work! What Kate Does is excellent, as is Dr. Linus
Please get prints of these made. I would love small poster sized versions of almost all of these… especially the Happily Ever After one. You are amazing.
bad ass. love the overall theme.
Very nice!
Thanks for all of the compliments! Yeah, I was thinking that at the end of the season I would have each one printed as a small 6×9 silkscreen on black paper and then make the whole set available. Would you guys be interested in that vs single larger prints? Let me know. Post a comment or send me an email and I will add you to the interest list and you’ll be first to know when they become available. Thanks!
Ok, so the more I look at “recon” the less I like it. I think I will redo that one. I’m open to suggestions on what you think the iconic visual for that episode was. Let me know if you have any suggestions.
These are REALLY really awesome. :D
what up Ty. I’m definitely interested in a set of small prints. add me to the list!
I think I would be interested in 6 x 9. not a lot of wall space at my place. Is it ok if I post some of these on my facebook profile w/ a link to your site? I’d love to share with people.
I LOVE the Recon one, Ty, it´s my favorite! Next would be the Ab Aeterno and the Happily Ever After ones.
Keep up the great job!
Ps- Yeah, I´d be interested in small prints rather than big ones of these. I´m also interested in the coloured ones you did first. :)
All amazing, but my favorite is probably “Lighthouse” – incredible how you can make shattered glass still clearly look like a number.
These are awesome! My favourite is definitely the “Recon” one though – the badge in the centre of the flower! So perfect for Sawyer! (er… I mean “James”)
‘Happy Ever After’ is my favorite, and is the wallpaper on my computer right now. Beautiful. Still hoping for posters of the original ones. :)
excited to see your rendition for tonight’s episode!
REALLY enjoying this series as well. As I scrolled through I liked each one more. There’s something very sweet about The Package. I’d be interested in buying the set (and/or single larger prints) at the end of the series. Keep up the great work.
and the hits keep comin!
Everybody Loves Chicken.
nicely done! love it.
The drumstick makes me happy.
I’d definitely love to be added to the list when you star printing. Thanks!
Another great series. Speaking of series, did you hear that the night of the Lost series finale is going to be like FIVE HOURS of Lost?! There’s a prefunk show, the finale, and then the cast on Jimmy Kimmel after or something. EPIC!
PRINT THEM!!!
nice! i like this one more than the alternates; nice choice!
yes, smaller prints as a set would be awesome!
R-A-D. i’ll cast my vote for the smaller print as an entire set idea. very cool man.
These are really strong pieces. The The Candidate is my favorite. Keep up the good work.
I would love to get them all! Please add me to your interest list!
I would love to get them all as a set in smaller prints…but individuals would be great too for those with not a lot of wall space. These are utterly fantastic!!!!! Dr. Linus and Happily Ever After = AWESOME!. Please put me on your interest list.
You’re the man. I’m going to post a link to this on my FB and Twitter. And I’m going to order that Dual-Locke poster when it prints, as promised earlier.
beautiful work. I admired this art, congratulations!
Please add me to the list of those interested in prints. Personally I think it would be better to do individual prints instead of a set, that way people could get the ones they like. I would LOVE an 18×24 of The Substitute or Ab Aeterno. Not only do they sum up the episodes, but the series as a whole. Awesome job, I’m very impressed.
What They Died For is one of the best of your series. They are to die for.
4 x 6 set of these would be NICE.
Add me to the list of interested parties :D A single print with them all would be best for me since I am getting all other ones as well :P
The End. Bravo. :D
These are great. I am a Graphic Designer as well, and have been obsessed with Lost for 6 years. Great work.
Very interested
Fantastic. Every single one. Bravo, Mr. Mattson. I agree with everyone else. smaller prints sold in a set. Put me on the list to buy when they’re ready!

congrats! I’ve been meaning to purchase a few of these. Are they still for sale?
Thanks, Yolanda. I don’t think the silkscreened prints are available any longer, but it looks like they have some print on-demand versions on ABC.com
I love these posters! I purchased the numbers print from ABC a while ago – it’s framed and on display in my office. Any thoughts on releasing these as backgrounds? I’d love them on my iPad/iPhone….
