[edit] Artwork

Barnes has been contributing album covers for his brother's band, Of Montreal, since their third album, "The Gay Parade". The covers typically have unique color schemes and illustrations achieved by using thick watercolors and markers, as well as the occasional ink.

Barnes also offers portraits from his website which are done in a similar style to the album covers.

Barnes worked with his brother, Kevin, and his sister-in-law, Nina, on a touring comedy production called "A Pollinaire Rave."

Barnes has also done art for Automaton snowboards. His board, the Rube 155, pays homage to late cartoonist Rube Goldberg.
