One's Direction

I've been creating some illustrations for director Carl Prechezer's blog. He's the director & co-writer of cult classic surf film Blue Juice, starring Sean 'son of the third doctor' Pertwee, Catherine Zeta Jones (said in a Welsh accent - obviously) and the young Obi Wan Kenobi. Carl also directs a lot of commercials and promotional films. Check out Carl P's words of wisdom here on his blog.

Online Publication: Matter

I recently created some illustrations for online cultural publication Matter, to accompany an article about opportunist cyber-scammers. Matter post insightful articles about... lots of different things really, but what they all have in common is that they're worthy of the nominal charge. Certainly for when the Mail Online just won't cut it on your lunchbreak. You can read a preview, and see one of my illustrations, here...

Still thinking about hibernating?

Here's some technical illustrations of a range of mattresses I drew recently. I also annotated them all in Polish (well...that someone else supplied). Having worked in a bed shop over a decade ago I can still spot a Continental Queen from a mile off.

ECO Pop Up Shop

Just got some leaflets back from the printers for the ECO Pop Up Shop in Bristol, showcasing Aymo and Mabboo products. Be sure to give them a visit. Printed on 100% recycled paper. Obviously. Like a boss.

Mabboo Mural

Here is the live art I created at the ECO Pop Up Shop at the weekend. The ECO team had a fun Saturday night launch party and needed some art for their walls. The shop is located on the top floor of The Galleries shopping centre, Bristol, and features Mabboo Bamboo T-shirts and products, and Aymo shoes and satchels. The mural features some Chinese, a  lucky cat, some bamboo, clouds, a sunburst, hot air balloons, the Clifton suspension bridge, and the SS Great Britain. If you're in Bristol go take a look! Thans to Ed and the Aymo team, (and special thanks to Sam for his help: his filling in was exemplary!).

Postcards To Alphaville

I'm a big fan of the Postcards To Alphaville website, a site dedicated to illustrations of people's film character crushes. Some of my faves are Pris from Blade Runner, Bob from Lost in Translation, and Phil Seymour Hoffman's creepy guy from Happiness. Inspired by the site, I created this illustration of Enid from Ghost World. Don't judge me...

Brighton Skateboards Sticker & Packaging

Here's a deck sticker and package design I did for Brighton Skateboards. The 22" grip tape, deck sticker and spare wheel set combo now come free (for a limited time) with all the new boards ordered online via their site. Can't argue with that. They're now available - just in time for Christmas - right here! PS: watch out for me on my new board. I WILL crash into you if you don't move out of the way. Haven't nailed turning yet.

Another mural

Recently did another mural (I love the smell of emulsion FYI). Here's a couple of quick snaps - the more intelligent of you may very well see a theme emerging. Answers on a postcard please. Will post some better photos soon. Promise.

Eye Candy Festival

Here's my contribution to the 12 x 12 project for the Eye Candy Festival of visual culture in Birmingham. Different artists and illustrators from around the country were given a record sleeve to customise, based on an album cover by a Birmingham musician or band.
I chose Broadcast's Tender Buttons, featuring the late great Trish Keenan on the front. They're all being auctioned to raise money for charity Oxjam Brum, and are on display in Le Truc, Birmingham.
