This little composition is a homage to the wonderful music of Yoyo Eskimo, you can hear their music HERE.

Its been a while...

Its been a busy few months, and although the blog has been slightly neglected, there has been a lot of work going on!

I have been printing a lot and I am really getting into cutting and printing lino. My latest lino work is a series of letters, each are a three colour reduction block print. 

I have also been drawing dogs. I love dogs!

I have also discovered Instagram which is a great little app for sharing photos, and it has served as a mini blog for the past few months. Another great app is Diptic which created the lovely photo collage layout I have used for the images above.

This weekend I did a bit of painting...

Mine is the white lettering on the shop awning...

Due to heavy  downpours on sunday I couldn't finish completely so I will be back then in the week to add a bit of colour, and maybe some barber related imagery!

Lino Printing on t-shirts...

A little experiment, I would like to see if I can print onto fabric with small lino blocks and oil based inks.

We love fried chicken!

Rock Steady Eddies Cafe

I can't wait to go and have a fry up here! I pass it almost every week on my way to college, and it always makes my mouth water!

Another wedding commission!

Blackboard details are left blank as the wedding is not until late summer!

RESIN SUCCESS!!!!!

After playing around with some Gedeo craft resin I though my experiment had failing as the resin fused to the make-shift mould. But a few days later and i was playing around with it and a block of resin dropped out! I then managed to pop out all the other blocks too (using brute force and ignorance). The blocks are quite bubbly and have a strange cloudy pattern through them, which i think comes from using vegetable oil as mould release.

3D Drawings

I have been thinking about turning some of my architectural drawings into simple 3D creations, here is a little mock up I did this afternoon, the real ones would be in colour, possibly with coloured paper in the windows? not sure really, comments appreciated!

Cafe Rendevous!

Science festival preparations

Here are some pieces I have been working on for the Edinburgh international science festival. I have been commissioned to produce illustrated animals and insects that will be displayed in the National museum of Scotland alongside a children's science exhibition. More photos to come from the exhibition when everything is put up next week!

I love life drawing, but sometimes i just lose concentration. This week i drew my friend Gary instead, it was much more fun!

Fun FaiP

I have been doing lots of drawings using my new posca pens to colour them. This drawing was so detailed the poscas were too fat to fill the gaps, so i reverted to using my old favourite gouache, and a very very thin brush indeed.

North Pier, Blackpool

This drawing has taken me days as i have been suffering from some sort of flu Illness. Feeling a bit better now, but this drawing is still not finished! i think i need a couple of days away from it to decide what to do next.
