Book Shelf Forestry
These prints work seamlessly with new sets to create a continued forest scene on your book shelf.But not everything is what it seems from The Soft City
Come closer and see into the trees...
Beer Mat Artwork- Lets drink away our financial worries and inertia of political activism with these fetching beer mats. Proposals coming to a pub near you - possibly?
Screenprinted record cover. Pitch for Ninjatune printing. Using the format of the 10inch, the drawing was built on oneside, reflected and textures copy and pasted to complete the wall of image finish. Check out the bung!
Its amazing leaving things to fester in your sketchbook. Bits of found marks, parts of scribbled drawings fuse together through Illustrator and screenprinting processes. Ultimately I love seeing things with fresh eyes. I always work continually - distracted away from my task in hand by a mark on the wall or a pencil drawing made whilst speaking to someone on the phone. I have never been someone who can just do one thing and finish it.Flying like the crow from point A to destination B doesn't interest me. I am like the magpie who catches a glimpse of treasures along his route. I fly the other.
Looking at surfaces around london, I am amazed at the intricate marks and pieces of art existing in their own right.
Sometimes graffiti and street art obstinately brands a locale other times it fits seamlessly into the language of its surroundings.
Making these prints involved a different approach from street derived work. No longer content to take photos of crumbling walls adorned with latest graffiti styles
and weathered conditioning, these prints involved tracing the intricate marks both intentionally and incidentally made and using this tracing to make a screenprint.
These prints serve as memory of their derived location.
Beginning with the eyes and finishing with the chimney stacks, illustration depicts a gang of brooding characters formed from an isolated floating mass of nebulous. Alien life has often been a fascination of mine, though now I look at us and wonder what we will look like when this planet becomes uninhabitable. Will we evolve to some contorted creature when all we have left is the Clouddead?
