My Dad, My Blood

I did this painting of my Dad about 5 years ago for an A Level project. I use to do lots of painting using oils mainly. I’m thinking about taking it up again for a change. I don’t know, just toying with the idea. I use to want to paint portraits for a living, and that kind of turned into wanting to just draw people. Maybe what I do now is too safe.

Paparazzi Typo

Just made from doodling about with squared maths paper. I found it really relaxing so maybe more will come along at some point. Getting increasingly interested in typography now

Handmade & Bound Zine Fair

Hello again, just a brief note to say that I will be selling some of my work at the Handmade & Bound zine fair on the 1st November. Hopefully I will have a couple for sale, one which will be type based. It would be great to see you there. Here’s the website for more details:

Tour de France – CHALKBOT

I saw this in the paper this morning and I loved it immediately and thought it was worth a mention…

In this years Tour de France, cyclist Lance Armstrong will use his appearance in the race to promote the worldwide fight against cancer. “Chalkbot” writes the publics messages of support and hope on the roads of France. You can send your message either by SMS through the Live Strong website or via the chalkbot twitter page:

It’s worth checking out how these images look. Typographically on the roads, I think they are beautiful. Here are some images – there are more in the photo gallery on the Live Strong website to see:

Here is a video about Chalkbot works:

Massive (Owl) Attack amongst other things

These are some new images that I’ve done recently that will feature in New Sugar Magazine around Christmas time. I’ll update this when it’s been published.

We found a photo booth!

Today at London Fashion Week

I’m going to be a dresser for Amanda Wakeley today.

This is a link to her A/W 2007 catwalk show:

Her clothes are elegant, simplistic, but strong at the same time. I like the A/W clothes the best I think.
