Wish You Were Here

If you happen to be on the Essex Road in Islington, you should pop into the George Orwell for a pint and a peruse. I have a piece of work in an exhibition which adorns the walls of the bar, one of 22 contributing artists; the title/brief, “Wish You Were Here”.

Here are a few shots of my 50x70cm giclee print, “Syd’s Dream”. The exhibition will be hanging there till mid-November… go along and see the rest! (Thanks to Mr Gresty who organised the whole shebang)

Bit of drawin’ from the old honeymoon. Yep, got married this summer! Whoop!!

Book that I didn’t illustrate #1

Heres some old spec work for a book that I started work on, but in the end, the job was awarded to another artist. *illustrator sheds tear*

Bowie & Bardem

Benji — Sun, 31 Oct 2010 11:14:16 +0000

Just discovered these two pics in my old artwork folders, a couple of mildly caricature-ish portrait experiments. Firstly, Bowie, in his mum’s blouse, with a pirate patch and space age dandy’s mullet…

…and then, the greatest villain of recent cinema: Anton Chigurh and that menacing triangular bob.

I kept the colours restricted with the idea that they could be easily adapted for screen printing.

Beneath…

In the swirling deep beneath our creaking ship, old foes were waiting.

Who’s for dessert?

These gruesome fellows are from “Gruff’s Guide to Fairy Tale Land” which I have just put the finishing touches to. And boy, are they hungry!

I’d hide if I were you.
