In 20 Licks, Ruby Mazur reimagines his iconic Mouth & Tongue design, which was originally used on the “Tumbling Dice” record sleeve twenty times over, each one painted with a unique palette and personality. From deep navy blue set against bubblegum pink to lime green surrounded by fuchsia, every square is a new interpretation. Some tongues curl like electric brushstrokes, others shimmer with liquid hues or erupt in layers of swirling chaos. The variations are less about repetition and more about reinvention—each square humming with its own tempo and visual music.

This piece is a tribute to variation within identity, like hearing the same song remixed twenty different ways. Printed as a museum quality paper Signed Litho, 20 Licks captures the texture of Mazur’s brushwork and his pop sensibility in full force. Each print is hand-signed by the artist, making it a collector’s piece that turns repetition into rhythm and pop art into pure attitude.

Ruby Mazur — The Man Behind the Art

In this exclusive conversation, Ruby Mazur reflects on his five decades of shaping the sound of rock through visual storytelling. He talks about how he found his voice as an artist, what it meant to design for legends like The Rolling Stones, Elton John, and Van Morrison, and why every cover he created had to capture the soul of the music. For Ruby, the work was never just design — it was translation. A way to make you feel the record before you heard a single note.
