Hanover Playgroup

Did this little poster for a friend recently - it can be seen all over Muesli Mountain. I'm gonna go one day, and make sure no-one's hogging all the Lego.

Vanity Project...?

Here's a poster I did for a group of DJs calling themselves "The Gentlemens Vanity Project" - with blank spaces for them to scrawl the line-up and venue of their next exciting instalment... Hopefully the Preacherman makes an appearance.

More Washing Up

Here's a decorative plate I painted recently to go on the wall of the Halsetown Inn, down near St Ives. Owed them a favour. Won't be doing them a whole dinner set though.

Seaside Pop Up Shop

Organised a little pop up shop in Rottingdean for the month with some friends, taking advantage of a disused shop by the seafront. Lots of screenprints, badges, bunting, earrings, necklaces, rings, greetings cards, Mabboo T-shirts, framed artwork, tote bags, stained glass sculptures, mugs, rustic wooden stools, Take a look at some of our wares for sale here, or better still come pay us a visit!

hellohead

Really enjoyed getting involved in hellohead earlier this year. Illustrators from across the UK have been paired up to draw one another, with an auction at the end to raise money for the National Autistic Society. See my portrait of Simon Tozer, and Simon Tozer's portrait of me on the hellohead site

How's My Grilling?

Coming to a festival near you this summer: the Blas Burgerworks Street van! The St Ives-based burger restaurant, revered for its organic ingredients, locally-sourced produce, sustainable credentials (and most-importantly tasty burgers) is going on the road this summer. They asked me to put together a design for the 'Blasmobile', which was unveiled last weekend at the Golowan Festival, Penzance, and the Quay Fair day. The design was very kindly artworked onto the van by the good people at Signs Express, Exeter. All this thinking about Blas Burgers is making me hungry. Cornish Blue Cheeseburger please. I wonder if they'll deliver to Brighton...(picks up phone)...

In their own words: 3.5 tonnes of burger love coming your way! Follow Marie, Sally, Lisa and the team's antics here, here and here ! Phew!

Phoenix Magazine

Here's an illustration I did for Phoenix Magazine this month, about eccentric British characters...in their underwear. You had to be there...

Doodle in front of the TV # 1

Halsetown Inn Mural # 2

Here's a much larger mural I did in the dining room of the Halsetown Inn. Somewhat eclipsed by the massive pews, but hey they're essential for the hundreds of people that'll be in to try Chef Baxter and the crew's new menu and wine list! So the new management love all the appaloosa horses in the surrounding fields, so they had to make an appearance, along with their new slogan and the area's beautiful scenery. 

This horse is small:

This horse is far away:

 Here's a cloud coming off the Atlantic:

Halsetown Inn Mural # 1

 

Here's some shots of a mural I did for the Halsetown Inn, a pub in Halsetown, just inland from St Ives, Cornwall. It has just been taken over by the Blas Burgerworks crew. This painting is in the hallway of the pub, greeting all the tourists and locals alike with a scene from the surrounding countryside...

Gone Fishing

What's new pussycat?

My panorama of Brighton made it onto the front of the Hanover Directory recently.
