Half Coke – Half Diet Coke

Ran in the Brighton Half Marathon again this year - completing it in 1 hour and 53 minutes - skimming an entire three minutes off of last year's time. Mad good improvement...
It explains the lack of posts recently (James) - sorry! Thanks for all the shouts of "Go on Mabboo Bamboo" from the ravers in the crowd, and to the over-friendly baggage attendants. And to Aiko - proprietor of Choc in 神戸市 for the running candy (?).

Call to Inaction

Wouldn't this have been literally the best christmas present EVER? Hopefully someone manufactures Peep Show action figures in time for next Christmas. Recently found Donny from The Big Lebowski on sale. Had to have him, just so I can tell him to shut up in the style of Walter at random intervals...

Avenue Litho

Illustrations I did recently for the very bespoke and very awesome printers Avenue Litho. These'll go onto promotional materials for the Farringdon-based print firm, established in 1979. Their site, designed by Yard Partners is brand spanking new and very groovy. Take a look...and hit see some more below to literally see some more, including some very rough roughs...

Enchante

You can take the illustrator out of art school but you can't take art school out of the illustrator. Went to Paris and all I got were these rubbish drawings. Visited all the greats - the Sacre Coeur, the Louvre pyramids, the Catacombs...c'etait formidable.

For those about to...

Was asked to do a music-themed bowl in a rush for a charity auction. Not my fave piece of pottery I've painted - but apparently it rocked so hard it...broke

Band of Jays

Here are Alice's jays - based on my drawings, and tattooed by Wayne Grace at New Wave Tattoo. (They could be a band, party or scold of Jays - Alice chose band).
This is the littlest one.

Brand New Mabboo Tees

The three new Tees I designed are back from the printers and available to buy - just in time for Christmas. Check out Mabboo's store here, and check out some really awful, quite trippy pictures I took of them on my living room floor whilst protesting against watching X Factor.
