Just done a very rough Photoshop mock-up for a canvas I’m about to paint, guessing it’s going to take a week or two:

Just got back an A2 portrait I did about a year ago - It’s some of my closest friends from secondary school!

I’m available for any kind of Fine art portraiture commission - makes a great present!

Just finished work on a poster for a charity event at Homewood school and 6th form. Was a really funny commission as I had pretty much free reign over every aspect, I’m happy with the result, and so are the organizers!

Found an old unfinished sketch of a balcony at a stately home - sort of like it like this!

Just got a whole mass of my old sketchbooks, sheets and pieces back so I’ve been busy scanning them and adding them in around the place!
check out my old Fine Art archive here
New work in Fine Art here
And new stuff from my sketchbooks here

Just added a whole section for some of the personal photos I’ve been taking lately
take a look

Just had some new cards made - They are printed and cut by hand using scraps from my studio space, so each one is completely different

This is a painting I did almost a year ago, just got it back from an exhibition! Had time to take a few photos before it goes out to another exhibition

Tried out some paint pens on my tatty stan smith’s:

been trying out some new photography - tiny depth of field, macro level focus, speedy shutter and low light

been workin on a new piece - Biro of Mr West.
The sneakers arent shaded yet, finished pic will explain why!

New piece, loosely inspired by the Surrealist’s idea of Calligrams, but in reverse. all photos were taken myself and cobbled together in PS CS3

Hey, been a long night but my portfolio is now up and running, look out for a whole back catalogue flooding on over the next few days! Click on the Portfolio tab to take a cheeky peek

Just got tickets to see Kanye West live in Nov! Got me sketching - did this in biro then took the watercolours to it

carbon pencil and sketch pencils, based on a photo by the awesome Ted Szukalski

just finished a Photoshop piece inspired by the  Jamie-T song Sheila (listen)

from the depths of the sketchbook sheets… sketch for sum promo material I did for a DJ company

black biro on copier paper, both provided by the kind people at ‘unlocked stationary cupboard inc’

Not too sure what started the one on the right, the left is pretty self-explanatory

Thought I’d start uploading stuff from my sketchbook as I do it, dunno what I was thinkin when I drew this, really…
