Neon Park (1940-1993)

Born Martin Muller, Neon Park was an artist who became famous around the world for his striking designs that graced the covers of nearly every Little Feat album in existence. Park loved to apply his keen eye for surrealism to dogs, ducks and inanimate objects that he would bring to life. In addition to Little Feat, Park also created art for Frank Zappa, David Bowie and the Beach Boys. He met his wife, filmmaker and painter Chick Strand in the early 60's in Berkeley California. The pair lived together in both Los Angeles and in a small town in Mexico for over 30 years. You do not have to be a product of the 60's or the 70's to recognize Park's iconic design that has become synonymous with the soul stirring music of Little Feat.
